"A message to the newbies - please read"

Hi, I'm Mr Snuggly, I work here and moderate the forums (occasionally). A word to the wise for some of the newer posters on our site - please try and cut down on the amount of new topics you're starting. We don't mind you starting your own topics, but starting 6-7 in a few hours is a bit much, especially when they're only a few lines long.

By all means keep posting here, we don't want to drive you away, we just want you to try and keep a lid on the amount of new, and pointless topics that keep appearing.

Cheers
S

PS. To the rest of ya, please don't be too hard on people that have just arrived and don't know any better, a lot of the people who come on here are very young. Let's not get too heavy on them, eh?

The very name "Newbie" is insulting really.

Couldn't you change it to New User or something?

BTW, do I have to post 300 messages AND be here 30 days AND write 10,000 words or is it by doing one of the stipulations?

Mind you, if you could get to regular by posting 300 messages you could do it in one night :-)

Ain't nothing wrong with insulting Newbies.

If they can't stand the heat, get out a' da' kitchen.

*Waits for someone to give him a lecture about the goodness of Newbies, and the fact that he was once one.*

oh but i like annoying newbies! spoilsport...

:p
