Moved, as requested, also made it a sticky

nice, but I'm afraid will fall on deaf ears. The members who will bother to read this are not the ones who need the advice.

hmm
maybe it should be in turing help

EDIT:: Thank you

That would actually be a good idea , so many people dont care , apparently my friend says when he signed up to compsci , he just went right into the help forum and clicked new topic and called it " HELP NOW" or somthin like that , some people will proably never go into this thread

Heh, I remember when my friend did something like that. He needed help making his bomberman game so he came to compsci, made a topic, and called it "make bomberman".

[shorthair]

just look at hte amount of people that have like 1 post , and 2 bits and never come back ,some people dont even post , they sign up and jsut dont come back

is there a way where you can set maybe a page up that shows them rules for posting etc that would be displayed right before they official register, so after they read it they can hit Accept or dont accept?

[shorthair]

People wont read it , its like license agreements , 99.9 percent of people never read them , just say i accept and install the game , if you ever actually read one they take nmo resposibility for anything , so putting it first wouldnt make a differenve

probly, but it is alot funner to yell at poleop

[MyPistolsIn3D]

Well, then when they create a topic with certain word groups, send em an e-mail with lotsa cursing in it.

MyPistolsIn3D, that avatar is too big and it messes up the forum.

Plus, 50cent is a no-talent assclown.

[MyPistolsIn3D]

Yes, i realized it was too large.

50 Cent is the best rapper to ever live. No dispute. Take your jealousy elsewhere.

[AsianSensation]

I wouldn't say that 50 is the best rapper alive, especially when Jin is still around. Anyways, quit spamming.

[s_climax]

Admit it. Rap is not music. Anyone that thinks that it is music has problems.
