# Ten Reasons Why You Should Stay Fluffy (something I scribbled earlier today)
1. You were a newbie once.

2. A community that doesn't let people in can whither and die.

3. Your response is the first thing a newbie sees. You're carrying the flag for what b3ta represents. Be nasty to enough people and the message will spread round the world, 'B3ta is crap.'

4. Domokun knows your sin.

5. Many people who started out a bit annoying settled down and became great contributors.

6. Is it any harder to type, 'Welcome. Read the faq. Photoshop a kitten' than 'Cock off you threadwasting silly chicken?'

7. Do a small bit of good today. Your reward is knowing that you've contributed to a better world.

8. Ok - you've seen the gag before. Don't attack - make something better.

9. 'Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me' is a lie.

10. Each nasty statement chips away at the premise, 'B3ta is friendly.'

"Domokun knows your sin." line has left me rather unsettled.

# To be fair
On number 6 the second one is quite a bit easier - less usage of the shift key...

# What he said
that has to be put on the weblog or the faq or something. more people need to see it... see that was much better than saying 'oh stop banging on about fluffiness you dumb cunt'.

edit: dammit, i'm all the way down here. I should have replied quicker

you know, i think someone should make it into a nice aniamtion. Meh, I'll do it...

# hooray.
too many people have zero-tolerance policies towards mistakes on this board, and at times it can really take away from what is otherwise a really great thing.
