New poster here, hi.

Let’s have a quick recap what it’s like to start posting here: First, anything and everything you say will be met with a uniform response of “shut up, **** off, who are you, nobody asked you, go away.” So you tell yourself ok, this is a game about trolling, they’re being ironic, they don’t really hate me. Maybe you convince yourself, maybe you quit, but you’ll never really know for sure.

Second, you look for funny stuff posted by others. You look, and you look… look some more… keep looking… nope, not a thing. The only humour is old posters making jokes about other old posters whom you don’t know so it’s not funny to you.

Third, you find that it’s a generally accepted truth that all new posters suck so anything posted by someone who hasn’t been around forever is going to be viewed with a predisposition that it’ll suck. Ergo, tough crowd.

So I don’t want to complain but the scene here really isn’t the easiest to get in to. But hey, I suppose blaming it on the new guys helps.

Yes I am saying new posters are missing something. You’re not missing it, you can see I was being honest there, but you missed the part where I said it was the older player’s faults too.

The jokes about other users are generally known and easy enough to find. I wasn’t around for Zombei, barely around for iRAWR, never understood Log in to see images! and recall FalconFour’s rage and blinded in it. This doesn’t mean the jokes about them don’t escape me. Humor is all in the presentation, and I suppose it’s a poor presentation to look back on it without being there.

I can’t say any more without being ridiculous or digging a deeper hole and I don’t want to devote my night to this thread so I’m outta here. I’ll check it later but I’ve said what I want to say.
