Newbies

[cowswithguns]

I still consider myself somewhat of a noob and post with considerable trepidation most times.

Most noobs on this board should be made to feel welcome regardless of their views. Once they've found their feet then by all means flame them but just be a bit gentle to start out with.

Given a bit of encouragement they may well be good value.

We describe it in real life as "earning your wings". 

People will get to know you thro' time and we will learn what to expect from each other. As my learned colleague said, sometimes comments are not intended to really offend, however without the context of knowing a persons "way" they might be misconstrued.

I hear what you say Jonno and it has merit. However I tend not to invite someone to stay the weekend when we are first being formally introduced. Neither do I kiss on a first date, but that's just the way we were all those years ago. I get to know people first.

To all new people, if you like the feel of the board, then you will join in and become part of it. If you don't, then you may just have to accept it might not be the place for you.

Amphoteric was quite obviously the right sort of chap from day 1.

You don't kiss on the first date? Goddam! I'd have missed out on a few if I'd held to that policy.

and I don't mean kisses.

Then a good show, a musical. Oklahoma perhaps or Les Miserables. Just nothing by Andrew Lloyd TSB.

[AussieSheila]

Les Miserables would be just fine. Your place or mine?

edit: TSB? Newbie you know.

That would very much be a matter for the Chaperone.

However I believe public places only would be the norm.



Are you not familiar with my black stallion ?

[AussieSheila]

Public places? That&#39;s so exciting&#33; How clever of you to think of it.

How bad can a good Catholic boy be?
