You guys can be rough on newbies.

I was seriously changing my name to Zoltar, and not going to use this account (LOB). I have decided against it. LOB will stay, and I will lose the login for Zoltar.
Man, you all greeted me with open arms.
Wonder if we will get any new serious users.

i dunno abt u but i'm new here; evryone has been very good to me and thats why i come here so often

 

[Soybomb]

Be rough on this "newbie" and I'll kick ya in the nu....I mean how's it going

 

[Locutus of Board]

Yes, I have noticed snake.

I have been a member for awhile, and I am here mostly to goof with people and have fun with them, and they can do the same to me in return. It's just my personality.

I guess the people know me as LOB. If they don't, they'd probably think I'm an a$$hole if they don't know my history. (This doesn't count for the members of this board that think I'm an a$$hole already.)

 

[RaDragon]

well, the newbies really ask for it -- by either creating dim-witted topics, or posting ludicrous replies! i was a newbie (and i think i still am), but you don't see me making a fool out of myself (a lot)...

 

[radiocore]

I'm still fairly new. Everyone's been great here! Thats why I keep coming back.

I'm very new but so far, so good. I'm here because I am learning how to handle the business/technical end of things in my work a little more. I've been a part of several different forums and never had much of a problem. I realize that when I post, I am automatically opening myself up to whatever is out there. However, if someone flames me, it doesn't bother me. I've learned not to take it all so seriously.

I'm pretty open and I try to be respectful of other people's feelings and ideas. If I accidentally step on anyone's toes, I'll admit fault. Then we move on.

I was terrified when I first came here, but everyone was always nice to me. But, I was too scared to start a topic until I was a Senior Member, and learned the ropes. So that may be part of the reason why.

Good to see you back as LOB, that was how I would always think of you anyway, no matter what your nick was.

 

[Locutus of Board]

I gotta set up my chat again so when you come by GF I can boot you out.

 

[FiddleDD]

Zoltar, wasn't that the name of that amusement park genie thingy game in the movie "big"?

what are you trying to tell us..? That you are a little kid in a grown up body?

Glad you didn't change your name..except I think everyone would have figured you out anyway.

I waited a few months before I posted in OT, just so I could get a feel of everyone, and havent until recently tried some serious neffing. Having seen numerous hilarious LOB posts, I know your style of humor, but to see it on a newbie is different because we have no frame of reference. I think newbies get treated fairly according to how they present themself (a la LOZER)

I hate to say it but they're nice to you because of your gender.

 

[Locutus of Board]

Fiddle,

Zoltar was actually a name of a character from a cartoon. (One of my favorites growing up)

It was called "Battle of the Planets"

 

[IBhacknU]

people get what they deserve!

 

[Yeeny]

ROFL! Ah, LOB, I can just feel the love in the air from you.

Hey FiddleDD! Good to see you back!

 

[Moonbeam]

<< Zoltar was actually a name of a character from a cartoon. (One of my favorites growing up) >>



You grew up? What a pity.

What's a newbie?

 

[FiddleDD]

thanks GF

but wasn't Zoltar the name of that amusement park thingy that spit out his wish?

 

[Johnlee]

LOB-Battle of the Planets rules!!!

Pretty funny, I didn't know that was you, but I thought Zoltar was pretty cool.

I try to be easy on newbies unless they are idiots right off the bat. Then I have to kick some newbie ass
