Off Topic, soz in advance......
But, I am new to this, I know better than to post questions in QOTW when it's for answering questions (hence the apology) but I just want to let you guys know, I asked for some help in explaining this all in the talk board, and I got called a c*u*n*t a lot, won't be going back there again, asked the same question in the main board, were a little more helpful, and a lot nicer, but still got called some rude names, the only nice people seem to be in here.
So I'm very sorry if I'm breaking some rule by asking a question in here rather than the talk board, but does anyone wanna take me under their wing and show me the ropes. Constructive criticism welcome!
(I'll never learn if I don't ask!)
Please be nice to me, I've had enough of being called a c*u*n*t for one evening! I know you lot are luvverly as I've been lurking on QOTW for a while now.....
*sad eyes*

Edit: It's because of my lurking on QOTW that I learnt what the F5 button did, so thanks guys!

also: you should probably post this in the offtopic thread
seeing as how it's off topic and all that

This is what I mean.....
what's an off topic thread, how do I do that?
I don't wanna piss people off by being a dumbass but unless I'm told I don't know.
Thanks for not (really) calling me a cunt!

Edit: Just saw your off topic link, will check it out, ta muchly!
(leglesss let that be a lesson to you, Thu 16 Oct 2008, 0:17, closed)

Honestly, you really do need to read the FAQ (click your L plate)
and off-topic QOTW threads go here: www.b3ta.com/questions/offtopic/

It's usually best to hang out a bit to see what the vibe is and suss out the etiquette before posting. Particularly on /talk.

This place can get a bit like an enormous in-joke at times and regulars can be harsh if you get stuff wrong.

Haha, you cant catch me.......
i have been told on good authority that your off topic link is actually a link to i love horses!
Glad I read my messages before I looked.

Cheers and bye bye for now, beddy time for me, methinks.

Doesn't it tell you to read the FAQ when you sign up?
It stands for Frequently Asked Questions after all.

Wait - is this a cunningly disguised answer to this question? You're impersonating one of those spoilt brat users who refuses to read the documentation and insists on personal tuition?

hello hello!
and welcome.

I'm sure you'll work stuff out as it comes but the FAQ is a good place to start -any other questions feel free to GAZ me (that means send a message!) :)

If in doubt
go over to the Off Topic board and jump in there. We're a pretty friendly and accepting group.

And unless you act like one, you won't be called a cunt.

I don't understand this.
What's there to be taught? You read the stuff on the screen and you type stuff in response. Are you new to the internet?
( Bob Todd whee, Thu 16 Oct 2008, 1:58, closed)

Step One: Don't trust Gilgamesh.
Step Two: Get used to being called a cunt. Insults are basically used as punctuation on b3ta. It's nothing personal. Just throw it back in the same tone and you'll be fine.
Step Three: Stay away from the /talk board. Frankly, it's a pissing contest for the underwhelmingly-hung.

Did you have an actual question to ask?
Or were you just looking for general advice?

Everyone has been referring you to the off topic board- that's what got made for us because /talk are douches and we wanted somewhere to chat to NICE people. Hopefully you are somewhere with a similar timezone to england though- I'm stuck here in the Antipodes and everyone's alseep when I want to chat.....

Good luck!

As the Loon said
Come over to off topic.

Each day there is a thread that will have a sign saying Home Sweet Home.
That is where the nice people are all we do is chat about our day but it's friendly.

Some time people from /talk come over and call us cunts but we just stick them on ignore.
( Mrs Entity is in hiding., Thu 16 Oct 2008, 7:23, closed)

I don't
I talk to them and try and find out why they think we are cunts. Then I follow them around the site and post humorous responses to their posts. Then other people call me a cunt too.
