City indeed, but since you have a TLPD icon you are one of the most hardworking and least appreciated members according to my beliefs.

I giggled, but hopefully this thread stays alive and people can show it to new people in the future. | ||

People would rather type a boring, mundane, or clueless post than actually take the time to read a thread and contribute to it in a meaningful manner. This leads to any thread with promise being filled after the first couple of pages with virtually hundreds of posts that are verbatim to the earlier ones. I don't expect every post to be a masterpiece or some ridiculously thorough examination of the topic at hand, but posting standards should be higher for everybody. Step 1: Read thread/post. Step 2a: Add something insightful or relevant to the discussion. 2b: Don't have anything insightful or relevant? Try being funny. 2c: Don't have anything funny to say? Don't post. Step 3: Repeat for all following posts. I made this post some time ago in a different thread, but it's applicable here as well. | ||

don't do this, it's an almost safe way of getting banned/warned not only is the closed forum good example to learn what not to do, it's also one of my favorite forums here. so much entertainment value and the banned list is always nice to look at. | ||

Knowing your posting ability it would be a thread to rule all threads and when you hit 5,000 posts i am sure this thread will be buried and there will be a wave of new posters to inform. The community is growing at a ridiculous pace On May 15 2011 01:50 LordWeird wrote: As much as I agree with this post, I can't help but feel I've read it a thousand times before. Well that's the point - you have over 3,000 posts, which means i can assume you understand enough about the community to still be here. It's the new users that fall into these common traps - especially things like posting in the SFW picture thread without a picture!! Or when people TL:DR threads; both of these don't end up good, but who would really know? On May 15 2011 03:14 MechKing wrote: bkrow, since when did you become part of tl.net staff? Haha about 3 months ago p4NDemik recruited me and a few other guys; and then recently asked if we wanted the icon - i guess we were on probation to make sure we weren't inept or something? It's actually a lot of fun working on the TLPD stuff i recommend it to anyone that has the opportunityThanks for the spotlight JWD ♥ | ||

I'm glad you wrote it. I just hope new people take it to heart. BTW holy shit you're a posting machine... more than me in like a quarter of the time. | ||

Kind of funny to have somebody make a blog on how TL works who has only been here for a grand total of 7 months...but you do make good points though so I can't really complain. | ||
