Title: newbie section sucks
Post by: visionenergy on April 09, 2013, 01:58 am
I hate this shit.  Why would I ask a question to a bunch of noobs?

Totally agree but it shows dedication.

I believe the "?" mark in your post indicates you did.  Silly NOOBer.  Questions are for answers!

Ask a real one he who is pompous.

50 posts is a bit excessive for a forum, but it's not the end of the world.

of course i have...its the only place i can post.  I have questions too, but it sucks when your only answers are coming from greenhorns.  I wish more senior members browsed the newbie section and helped out.

They do! If it's a good question, you'll get a good answer. I've only recently graduated to Jr. Member, but I'm a long time lurker and I learned a lot in this section.

i know they do, but this just seems like the section where the kids go to fuck around.  I guess it makes sense though.

The signal to noise ratio is bad, but the community is good in the real discussion threads because the barrier to entry is pretty high. There aren't a lot of total idiots here.

This is where the kids are supposed to.  Hopefully not the spam to glory route.  If you ask a good question, you will get good answers.  Long-time Road walker, but i just read here occasionally.  Seriously, ask, and you will get the "kiddy iddy-ut" responses, but ive had a mod address mine personally a few times now.  They do the best the can with what they have.  See my past threads....

"Total" idiots. lol. Ones like us may be the minority.  It is what it is.  The barrier isnt that high for the spammers... dont go that route.  They know and you'll suck.  if you see someone with 132 posts, but +1/-4.... you'll know why.  Get it the right way.  Helpful responses.  Good sincere questions.  and well... my -1s come from me retaliating against smartasses.  An idiot is an idiot.  idc if he has 375 posts dont call someone with 15 a "dumb fuck".... just me though.. ask your questions man.  Good job :)

Bam, that's the truth. How many times can you post your favourite drug? How awful does every post in a spam thread feel? In my extended tenure as a noob (maybe 4 days, where most people graduate or drop out after what seems like 1) I pined to make posts worth my time, vowed to treat it as I do normal forums. I even made an X Files thread! Oh, lord won't somebody please post in my X Files thread...
