Dear Newbies:
Coming on to a major thread and using the phrase 'end of discussion' or 'stop talking about this' does NOT make you authoritative or put you in a position of power. It just makes you annoying, presumptive, and look like an idiot. It's a message board. We discuss things until we're done discussing things and then we'll rehash it a few months later. That's how we do..we talk.
Also, don't come onto a thread and post insulting things and then say 'Well, if you don't like my opinion, leave.' Uh no, we were here first. Be respectful or suffer the consequences.
Also also- just because it's your 'opinion', doesn't mean it's correct. Your opinion can still be wrong, or make you look like a fool. :p
My biggest issue with newbies, and I remember I explained this really thoroughly on a thread a while ago, is they feel as though the way to act on this sight is disrespectful. Those of us that have been here for a while (I think I signed up in 2008?) have established our position here, and our personalities. It's like we're all on The Real World. We'll have our clashes, we'll disagree, but at the end of the day we have a respect for each other (however minimal). If you've ever watched Real World, Bad Girls Club, any of those shows, you've seen what happens when a new, strong personality comes in. It doesn't work. Everyone needs to do their time, and newbies somehow feel like they don't, because the rest of us are rude b**ches.
