    How is this further proof of it? This is just proof that you spent no time reading the forums and learning about the people here before starting a retarded qq topic about how you don't feel like you are getting enough attention.

    This is the equivalent of running into a group of people and yelling at the top of your lungs "You are all assholes, can I hang out with you?"

    Seriously we all started with a low post count (lol) and started out new at some point and most of us survived.


    Edit: and what conformity said too, start out small by replying to posts intelligently, then once people know who the hell you are then start threads.

    thoughtful answer: zoober's post exactly explains what you're looking for, if this is not just a troll attempt. The "New Person" phenomenon is present throughout all societies, not just internet forums. Now you're just being a troll.

    deserved answer: gtfo

    I can't believe you take the forums so damn serious. You don't know me from anyone. And you are already attacking me .

    Read my posts or gtfo if you don't even take the time to read the replies in your own thread than you are even more retarded than your OP made you out to be.

    Seriously internet forums are no different from any other situation when there is a group of people in a social gathering.

    Edit: this must be a troll... who is it? Fuck I fell for it

    New users are like voicemails. You have about 1, maybe 2 sentences to grab my attention and get your point across. If you succeed, congrats. Continue the win, and you'll be soon accepted. There's plenty of examples of this. With long standing members, I'll typically give them the time of day to read everything they have to say.

    It depends how the new users act. Some of them come into a forum just to troll and cause problems, or act like idiots. Some of them actually contribute to worthwhile discussions and make sense when they talk.

    How they act determines how I treat them.

    I too feel the new users should gtfo, we don't need them around here when they can't contribute anything of substance

    Having a stupid name and a pornstar avatar probably doesn't help your case for people liking you. You need to make a good first impression and this is definitely not helping it. You gotta be confident, man. If everyone sees they can troll you, they're going to troll you.

    I don't like new users really as well. But I don't go out of my way to attack them if I disagree with them.
