Things That Every Newbie Should Know- Tips From The Veterans

[Jason Tandro]

These are some tips for surviving in these forums, and a little bit of what you can expect!


General Tips

1. Spam in Spam Central only, please!
2. Topics get derailed easily. Try to stay on topic, but if it happens, it happens. Just go with the flow.
3. Don't revive dead topics unless there has been an update in the subject matter! Let the dead rest!
4. There is no such thing as a superfluous thread or reply. Everything we do is irrevocably relevant.
5. Remember. Raini is the kween, eFlare is the king and Boxxleman is like God. He rarely shows up and when he does, you damn sight better pay attention.


Behavioral Tips

6. We don't deal well with people are troublesome, loathers, flamers and serious spammers (IE-overly spamming everywhere) and ego-manics need not apply. However, good people who wish to get to know other good people, and (occasionally, if not always) have a hearty laugh, should come and join. You're more than welcome.
7. Nobody likes a smart-ass. We love them.
8. Your introduction thread will be hijacked and derailed with off-topic conversation. No exceptions. It will either be random, dirty, or randomly dirty.
9. Also, we don't have to make sense if we don't want to. Logic is overrated.
10. You can only be truly accepted into the ranks of the TE Elite, if you are able to deal with the constant barrage and assault of the insane veterans.
