# and a side note to the regulars,
perhaps it is time we updated the FAQ to include a board ettiquette section

# no
b3ta is a friendly place. a new person taking a couple of threads ain't so bad? it is the evening, after all. calm down every one. and an ettiquette bit in the faq ain't very fluffy is it? i might not have stayed when i first arrived if i'd seen something like that.

# I agree...
...I mean - it's only a stupid bloody picture message board thing.

It's not a life or death situation, is it?

# well I'm not talking about a hard DO's and DON'T's list,
just a general reminder/suggestion, as fluffy as possible, that only 20 threads fit on a page, so it is better to post a text message as a reply in an already used thread, and to try and keep the number of reposts down.

that information is in the faq, so its not like we're yelling at people, but i don't know how many people read that when they sign up. a short paragraph to that effect, when you sign up would still be fluffy, though, and effective

# Well...
...it should include not jumping down the throat of inexperienced users who haven't been here long enough to know the unwritten rules.

You've got to start somewhere you know.

I DON'T WANT NO RULES

# although
if you've been here for 130+ days, you should know your way around. And this was dealt with quite patiently, really.
