[QUOTE]I have been lurking since I first got engaged. Believe me when I say I KNOW you don't give a rat's ass what I think. I just think some of you ladies are so RUDE! I feel like some of you are acting out the "mean girl" role you so desperately wanted to be in high school and it's pathetic. Specifically Salt and Amoro. Get over yourselves.

Nope, we're brutal to stupid.

Some people might be skeptical of newbs until they prove their worth. But I think most people are fine with newbs until they prove their stupidity. If they don't, problem solved.

And regs can get ripped apart, too. The difference is that we know regulars have a fairly thick skin and can take the snark on this board. Also, they're usualyl given the benefit of the doubt if they have a history on this board of <em>usually </em>not being stupid.

Youll fit right in around here then. Its a prerequisite to being a reg here.

Kati0105 · April 2010

We were all new once, asshat. Except that you aren't new, you are obviously an AE. Also it's HILARIOUS to me that you think Salt of all people is mean.

jasmineh7777 · April 2010

If you really have lurked, then you should know that the ladies on here are very empathic and caring when the situation calls for it. That is why people give updates about births, deaths, etc. They get lots of support from the ladies on here.
There is a low tolerance for people who want to treat the guests rudely, want to kick their friends out of the wedding party, etc. That is because it is way better to get chewed out by internet strangers, and then rethink it, rather than treate your irl friends and family like crap.

This is exactly what I said and there is no way she is new and pulled my name out of her magic hat. I'm barely here.

Even now I am about to leave becaue my 10 minute break is over and out.

JanoBean75 · April 2010

I've never had a problem with anyone on this board. I don't post as often as I could, but I also didn't come in asking the same question 100 other brides asked because I lurked enough before to avoid it.

I don't think anyone here is a megabitch. There some bitchy comments here and there, but nothing to get apoplectic over. I've never seen anyone be "mean" to a newb -- like PPs have said, nothing is sugar-coated here. That's not being mean. If your close friends lie to make you feel better about some inane idea, no one here will.

jamiefour · April 2010

If you think the people are being mean then why come on here? I don't post to often but everyone has been really helpful and nice. I am not saying this to "fit in" I just find TK a good place to come on and get advice even if it is NWR. That's the difference between here and H.S. mean girls, you can go leave and go to another wedding website.

xoxpipahxox · April 2010

So, I'm mostly in "lurker" status, but I have to say that from post-stalking you, I noticed that you came here and asked for advice at least once (I read only one of your past threads) and in that post, you received kind and helpful responses.

The ladies here give honest opinions. If a "newbie" comes here asking a question that is blatantly ridiculous (ie. are tiered receptions okay?), then they're going to point out how ridiculously rude that person is being. I've posted a question and got nothing but help, even though I was new to this forum.

I feel you haven't lurked long enough if you're quick to say that this board is, in large part, rude to new posters asking legitimate questions.

DO:

- Lurk.
- Make a meaningful contribution to the discussion, either by soliciting advice on a real issue (one that hasn't been beaten to death and back!) or simply by responding in an intelligent manner to someone else's question or comment.

DON'T:

- Make your first, second or five-hundred and twenty-ninth post someting like HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. If you're old enough to get married, then you probably aren't 12. Neither are we.
- Insult everyone -- including those of us who have no clue who you are, and have never said two words to you. Good, bad or indifferent. Because, guess what? We hate you now, too.

GG.
