Bloodshedder Posted December 3, 2003 This isn't a very good way to start. 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted December 3, 2003 Greetings, and please read the FAQ and stuff. No one minds a "n00b", but "n00b intro" threads tend to irritate people a bit. Having said that, there are plenty of worse threads here, so I won't blog this. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
dsm Posted December 3, 2003 Welcome to DW o' Shadowy buddy. I don't mind newb introductory threads as much because I know they're a lot more common on other boards, but just for the record (in case some of your friends plan on joining), Grazza and Bloodshedder are right in what they said. My initial advice to you (apart from the usual "read the faq first") is to spend a while observing on how we do things here before posting threads and engaging too much in heated discussions. 0 Share this post Link to post

My 'lurking' period was my "observation" period and I found it to be quite useful when I finally signed up. 0 Share this post Link to post

Point: if this guy is remotely intelligent (and he seems to be, judging by what other posts he has made), he can easily tell what to do and what not to do from watching the forums. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to watch some more interesting threads. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted December 3, 2003 Heh...I remember when I first signed up, I made a introductory post too. I wasn't going to, but I couldn't get my account to work for some reason. Finaly that message went through and so it was there. 0 Share this post Link to post

Fletcher` Posted December 4, 2003 Shadow Wolf, before you start asking for help on your new mega-cool-and-whatnot project, make sure you have something to show first (screenshots, map downloads, etc). Keep in mind we've already seen thousands of upcoming projects that actually never got done. Edit: Dammit Disorder. 0 Share this post Link to post
