Message for the "Newbs":
So, Im a "newb" as I suppose I'm called. I've really only been involved in discussion for about a week or so. During this time, I have read numerous boards. Okay, okay, I'll admit, at first I was a little shocked at how blunt people were. But, like many that have made valid points, it's usually only because they've seen it a million times, or because they don't like to sugar coat things. As long as you don't feel "attacked" (I again admit, I did once or twice) and conduct yourself in a respectful manner, people will say what they need to say and leave you alone. Then again, some people just like to say mean things to get a rise out of you. Don't take it too seriously 
As for the "Regs": I find most of your "harsh" comments quite entertaining. While most of you have very valid points, and I really believe are trying to be helpful, it's kind of fun to sit back and listen to people argue about who is right and wrong. Keep on keepin on. I think what I appreciate most are the little videos. I have to find out how to do that. I will say I laughed out loud (in my cube) when someone on a board said *left to go google and shit*.
If nothing else, at least it's entertaining. Have a fantastic and rainbow filled day!
