The longe should have a FAQ for stupid people...

After the CobaltSSTuner thread, I think the lounge should have a sticky warning new people who are of a lower intellectual level not to post "I'm new" threads, and warning them that they need to READ the forums before they jump into participating.

IIRC, there used to be a 100 post requirement before you could even post in the lounge.

God Bless,

God Bless,
It would seem it's needed again... the new guys are not getting any smarter, and Cobalt would be exhibit A.

Dear n00b,

Please spare yourself the humiliation (and us, the aggravation) that will inevitably result from posting in the lounge without understanding how it operates.

To escape (generally) unscathed, follow these steps:

1) Read the threads and observe how the frequent posters interact with each other for a while BEFORE you start to join the "conversations."

2) Dissolve all thoughts of creating threads on poetry, Hondas, and ricey mods to your car.

3) Manlaw must be upheld. This means posting pics of absolutely any woman that you mention, even in passing.

4) Do not get into stupid arguments as a n00b or you will be treated as a troll.

5) Use the search function before you ask a question or post a new thread. Reposts are not appreciated.

6) You don't know us and we don't know you. As in a real life situation, approach with caution and general respect/courtesy, and try not to be too uptight.

7) Don't introduce yourself. If someone wants to know about you, they'll ask. There'll be time for introductions at local meets or at Sevenstock.

8) Don't argue with DoO users, mods, or admins. Those are arguments that cannot be won.

9) Know when to quit. If you get defensive early on, you're basically feeding the flames.

10) Don't use obscene language in your thread titles.

Ten simple rules. Use them.

/thread

+1 for having a 100+ post count before you can post in the lounge.
