I think we need to make a concerted effort to respond/reply to newbies and their comments

everytime we see them around..... like a little good samaritan deed.....

and no looting their lunch money no no no!

Seriously, reponding to them may give a boost of confidence and a platform to be more

vocal/scripted in threads, but don't do it out of pity to make them feel like a charity case or

something. This may help towards knocking down the arrogant old skool "I'm already

established so fuck off" persona (whether be it a myth for some or reality).


I agree.
It's hard breakin' through here.
I find myself doing the same thing that was done to me.
Maybe it's some unwritten rule to earn your stripes.
Whatever it is, unfriendly and cold is how it comes off.

I'm not a newbie - been here for nearly 2 years posting, longer lurking.

I'm cool with adopting or being adopted. It don't matter no more, I'm hot!

Why? In the GD forum the whole idea is to post where you're not involved or wanted, if only to achieve the feat of simultaneously having your name next to all of the top 10 or so threads, displaying your social deficiencies outside in the "real" world for all of the org to see.

I have been coming here since 2000 and just a few months ago I started posting....I lurked around and read stuff but didn't really post. I think new people pretty much get ignored if they do post or are scared off by some of our antics....

they don't post because 95% of the "oldbies" have something rude to say back or just ignore them because it's one big clique.

You should post more so people would get more of a chance to see your beautiful face.

I think Milty's apparant obsession with newbies is but a metaphor. I think it covers over a Freudian desire for virgins. nod
