Newbs

[Dihenis]

let up a little Waterman. this is the place for off topic-chat and the only threads that have been locked here recently are ones that are obviously spam (that last post wins thread) and one that talked about a banned character.

yes i think Xillix is the new black

[although i think this a red pill, blue pill thing ]

[Unnamed_Source]

I think "Xillix is the new black" or more to the point, very much wants to be. I think Xillix is tired of the being Developer and the lofty position it comes with, no longer content in presiding over the masses, Xillix wants to get back to the foundation, back to the minority majority populace and thus the new "black" - PC terms, African PlaneShiftian.. Power to the people... shafted by the MAN.

Xillix just wants to be on the recieving end for a change

[Waylander]

Xillix has hinted at there being more meaning.  Have patience.

So, you're saying posting something that is completely inane and would be instantly locked by a lesser known member of the boards is a "good example"?

Yes, because it encourages the moderators to be more permissive with us regular users.

[Watcher]

I voted for yes and no. Just to try to get the yes and no numbers higher than "Xilix is the new black".



Oh and for those who recognise me *mindtrick* this isn't the Watcher you are looking for.

Cila wonders wheter this thread is a joke or not.


Everyone once started as a newb, except few devs maybe...
Pick out those who have potential and kill the jerks!

Speak in your name woman, don't make the destroyer of the new breed angry!

Annah's words of wisdom:

Heh, hate newbs? I have to admit that no one wants noobs that tare this com. apart, but newbs are the future of our realms, and now, officially, I welcome all of you in here.

I never hated newbies ... I really like them. They are part of any community, and without them ... a community really doesn't exist.

And almost everything you've all said is true (well except of the noobs), but think a little. I used to think like this, maybe forever I will have in my mind this com. split in 2 parts. And for me the ones I've first met here will be oldbies, and the rest newbs. But this isn't right ... why we shouldn't have a single com. ? A united one?

With these, a problem will always come. The fight between so called "Oldbies" and "Newbies". Everyone that sits an year around here thinks that now he's an elite, an oldbie, also being allowed to do anything he wants. I can give an example Seperot, who was a puppy when he 1st came here, now behaving like the owner of every soul he meets. I wish I could talk with the real one in the future.

Every time we try to forget about the "oldbie" / "newbie" thingy, there's some idiot reviving this.

I think it's possible to recognize our differences and maintain unity at the same time.  I'd even argue that you can't do that latter without the former.

I just thought poll creation was reserved to moderators and that they had to be submitted for approval. I suppose I do not need to know what the approval criteria is.

Could you perhaps explain the significance of the various options to me? There appears to be 8 possible variations: no vote; 1; 2; 3; 1&2; 1&3; 2&3; 1&2&3. I would like to vote appropriately.

[neko kyouran]

it's a radio button.  you only get one pick.  stop over complicating things. 

[bilbous]

You may only select up to 3 options.

radio buttons are not always either/or in nature and having taken my first option (not voting) I only had the poll's internal logic to go by; that is, if it can be said to have any logic, other than skewed.

[Cyl]

Xillix is the new pink. Period.

I'm pretty sure this poll was a checkbox, not a radio. I checked both "Yes" and "Xillix is the new black"

[neko kyouran]

only allowed me one choice.  must be my theme i'm using.
