Thanks for the help. *love* (...not, ah, you know...stalker-ish in any way. o.o") Do veterans care that n00bs (i.e. me) use...er...smilies and a bunch of faces a lot? Because they're basically ingrained into my everyday vocabulary. ^^" Oh, wait. Am I a newb or a n00b? *keels over* I apologize. ;_; I did read everything in this thread before I replied...because I hate doing something wrong. In all the forums I'm in, "newb" and "n00b" are interchangeable. I have to say, though...DH is one of the most confusing forums I've ever been on (not, like, dissing it or anything like that). It's cool how everything is organized though. ^^ But it's kind of nervewracking for me, and I feel scared to post anything, really. o.o"

What if they've been here for like 8 months and don't post much where does the line between n00b, member, veteran and pro get drawn? By date or post. I'm just really curious.

I consider newbs to be new members. Once you've been here 8 months, a lot of posts or not, you're a regular member. If you post a lot, maybe you'll be more so to veteran. N00bs are the people who draw attention to themselves by disobeying rules or saying or doing stupid things. XP

I think posts has something to do with it. WAIT! I haven't been here for 8 months, evil para! You called me a newb. I say the minimum to not be a newb is a week. minimum to be a veteran should be 8 months.

I'm just really curious. j I just want to clafy this for everyone. This is aleast my view on the subject Many people are new here. But only a few are noobs. Noobs being a derogatory slam on someone who is not writing, participating , behaving and carrying on in manner that the forum expects of its members. Or someone who spams ,adds nothing to the conversation or is general a pain in everyones side. People who think things through before they post and make a conscious effort to participate in a mature manner are not noobs. So no most new people aren't noobs in the sense I have used the word.

I say the minimum to not be a newb is a week. minimum to be a veteran should be 8 months. There's no real way, IMO, to say that someone is a veteran, regular, or n00b. It's possible for someone to be here for a year and still be a n00b. However, you're still a newb if you've been here for less than a month, IMO. Solely because you're getting to know the staff and members and the way the system works. I just think the veterans of DH are the members that have been here for the longer periods, joining in early 2006 or in 2005. And yeah, posts have something to do with it. But those people who have been here a long time and don't post usually won't ever post again. If they've been here a while, they should have a fair amount of posts to say the least.

Nothing wrong with scaring us *cough* noobs. It keeps us on our toes, and makes us work harder to be known.

I don't know where else to post an introduction, so I hope this is a good place. Yes, I'm new. Sort of lurked around before biting the bullet and joining this forum. I figured, "Why not. It could be the last season of Avatar!" And I know there's plans for more seasons, but with a different cast? I cannot imagine such a thing.
Sorry. I'm rambling a bit. Anyway, I hope I didn't make any mistakes and if I need any help, hopefully I can ask around here.
*end nervous introduction*

Thanks for the welcome ILZ. I didn't want to post a new thread just to introduce myself. I sort of thought there would be a thread specifically for new members to introduce themselves, but I guess I shouldn't assume things based on other forums I hail from.
