Drugs & Stupidity, Tons of it.

OK ok ok the situation that's going on here is that there are lots of n00bs joining.

Now there are two stances people take on this. VETERANS think that these n00bs are a bad thing and tend to be pretty harsh on them, and can extend the same treatment to pretty much anybody who they don't exactly know. It's a defense mechanism. The NOOBS think they have just as much of a right to post whatever they want whenever they want because they were clever enough to find a site that their friends haven't or something like that. It's an inferiority complex or something like that. Anyway, noobs post utter crap so that people will take notice of them (Attention Seeking) and they don't really care if they **** people off. In fact it's quite a laugh to see how the "54d l0s3r5" can't cope with a bit of stick.

When people display n00bish behaviour (e.g. posting rubbish on serious threads, posting rubbish threads, flaming Vets etc...) people are suddenly polarised to either taking the Veteran's approach or the Noobs approach, and the result is a wholly unnecessary conflict.

In Rod's case he's (from what I've heard) posted sarcastically on most threads, and that in fairness is a bit excessive, it's like the same punchline again and again and again - it's eventually going to hurt. But the occaisional silly comment has to be taken for what it is, not a crazy subjective view on it like "Rod-Nog only registered 3 months ago, he's a n00b, me no like n00b, me CRUSH" or to just post more random rubbish because you're an annoying noob.

So in conclusion, Wraith Squadron would make a great game.

Oh and Rick McCallum loves you.

Checksum: I thought about it, I guess I'm striving for my own personal ideals. I'll just project those ideals onto Jesus and say "I'm trying to be like Jesus" so that I won't have to listen to you banter endlessly about me worshipping a false god or some such.

Ah, the outcome of this thread pleases me much. Except for the Soviet part. I'll have to do something about that. I used to have a few contacts in the MBS...

They've long-since been rooted out.

Wow, Its sad to see how much all of you act like 12 year olds.
First of, WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD PEOPLE.
Just because someone is annoying doens't mean you can just bann them and all will be better.
Life isn't about that, trust me. In the computer world, there are alot of annoying people, things would be alot easier if they just got fired. But see, we can't do that.
Second,
GROW UP.
"AWwww, whine whine, he ruined ONE thread...LETS BANN HIM!"
Sounds like newb's in couter-strike or JO
"BANN THE NEWB, HE SUCKS!!!"
You want to bann someone because they made a mistake or because they aren't good at everything. But we all had to start somewhere. How would you like it if you got banned for the past mistakes you have made? Im sure you wouldn't. So why don't you all give the damn kid a second chance?
