If you see something that makes you think you're hallucinating, just get a stiff drink (or some water, if you're underage) and scroll down to the next post. It's probably Scorp. And good grammar, spelling, and capitalization are always nice. And be nice to Drakefyre. And ignore your karma. And if he who is currently known as el presidente bothers you, don't try to complain. It won't get you anywhere. And it's AlorAEl. -------------------- Aces off. Posts: 611 | Registered: Friday, January 3 2003 08:00 |

FEAR TEH SCYTHE. *cowers beneath Drakey's withering glare* I love newbies. Especially ones with godawful grammar and spelling. I don't want to kill any of them. Really. Seriously, people around here don't like it when others forget to capitalize, punctuate or otherwise make their posts intelligible. Some basic rules: 1. "Their" is possessive, "they're" is a contraction for "they are." Do not confuse the two. The same goes for "your" and "you're." 2. Capitals are used at the beginning of a sentence, and for proper nouns. They should always be used such, but not for much else (all caps for emphasis = bad.) 3. If English is not your first language, that's fine. If it is, however, there's really not much excuse for having horrible grammar. All grammatical rules aside, just have fun, and don't steal Alorael's sig or skribbane. And watch out for the Revere Brigade. -------------------- "Man hands down misery to man. It deepens like a coastal shelf. Get out as early as you can, and don't have any kids yourself."--Philip Larkin, "This Be the Verse" Fear the wrath of the Grammar Wench, lest ye be cut down by the Glistening Scythe.

Um.. He/she is from Finland. I know we have come to expect immaculate grammar from Finns, but please, cut the guy/gal a little slack? Anyway, welcome. Just be yourself if you are nice, and pretend to be somebody nice if you are not. Please try not to double post, and beware of those few members who manage for various reasons to get away with murder. Oh yes: beware the wrath of Drakefyre, which is terrible when it falls. -------------------- KazeArctica: Oh yes. KazeArctica: Oh YES Posts: 93 | Registered: Sunday, September 30 2001 22:00 |

The only reason so many Finns arrive here is because Arctic Wolf is unfairly biased towards not eating fellow residents of Finland. I'm sure there's a lawsuit waiting to happen there somewhere. —Alorael, who would also like to welcome Lost Hope. And if you don't understand things, that's okay. In fact, that probably says good things about your mental health and stability. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

The single best bit of advice I have for new members is to not take insults, arguments, or miscellaneous flames seriously or personally. Just remember that and you'll do fine. -------------------- ~ §øСüm ©ÿªñ¡Ðë ~ Mission Ridge -- All Your Snow Are Belong to Us. Posts: 1277 | Registered: Monday, June 24 2002 07:00 |

Oh, and it's best for new members to not give out those insults. People will take them from old members, but not new ones. -------------------- http://members.aol.com/risberg/blades/ Eternity approaches. Posts: 56 | Registered: Friday, October 5 2001 07:00 |
