Official Welcome/Introduction Thread

<<seS>>Saint · 02-11-2005, 06:05 PM

Hey forum lurkers

I new in town and just though I should introduce myself. You can call me Saint at the moment I am in Kuwait and the computer is one of my only contacts to civilization. I stumbled across this awesome forum and decided to join, I'll be a regular visitor unless I'm unwanted for some reason.

I would like to ask the admin's and moderators if there are any special rules I should know about so I don't offend anyone. (I know some forums have certain guidelines)

Saint

I can't wait to start discussing all the interesting topics with you guys.

Don't worry, I've got banned from www.pro-networks.org just because I've reported that the site contained spam links

I doubt he will be reading that post.

Its simple here, follow the rules and you will not be banned... It has been my experience that there is relatively no “politics” involved in the banning process. You break a rule; admin bans you... simple as that

Don't worry. I'm not going to break a rule. And for bartekpl, oh. Jeezes, That's quite long ago

Or act like a complete idiot, insult admin, get banned, hope admin has a nice streak, and turns out he does, then get back on

(me, if you hadn't figured it out)
