All of you, stop pming me with stupid stuff, just leave me alone, I've been here for 6 months, and I have much better skills than some of you here, just because I haven't built a portable doesn't mean I suck
The people who give me these Pm's suck.
EDIT:
Another pathetic PM I was given said "Duh please change your avatar, it sucks", whats the bloody point and who cares about an avatar? The worst part about it was it was dumbass who decided just to spam about how immature and the "mental age" of our mods.

1) Think hard about what you are about to post. Do it twice. Once before you start, and again after you have written it out. But before you click "Submit." This will both help you decide whether your contribution will be helpful or not and will allow you to proofread what you are trying to say. If you are in doubt, open a word processor and paste what you wrote. Then spell check it.
2) Lose your 13375p34k(leetspeak). It has no place here. This includes substituting "U" for "you", "R" for "are", etc.
3) You are no better than any other person here. Even the mods. They are given the power to moderate things because they are trusted to uphold the rules of the boards. They are to be respected. And every other member deserves the same respect.
4) Number of posts/amount of portables created does not correlate in any way to your seniority. I have been a member of Ben's organization for well over 3 years now. But I am not a "Senior Member". I have no problem with this either. Your seniority is based on the quality of your posts.
5) Just because you cannot physically see a person does not mean that they do not have feelings. I have witnessed several occurances of heckling that may or may not have meant to be mean. But they did hurt someones feelings, and this angered me probably more than the person who was hurt.
6) Everyone makes mistakes. We are all apt to post something we don't mean now and again. In this case make an apology. If everyone else follows the other rules, you will be forgiven, and life on the boards will go on.
By following all of these guidelines everyone can be successful in keeping the boards clean and friendly to both new-comers, and old farts like me.
7) If you arent a mod, and you think a topic needs to be dealt with, DO NOT make a post saying "this is dumb, some mod please lock this" Making a post such as that, you are undermining authority. it wont get it locked any faster, and it just makes you look like a power hungry dink. You have no clout, quit acting like you do. This does not undermine rule #3 in any way. Modding is their job, not yours. They don't show up to your work and tell you what to do.
8 ) DO NOT make a new topic to address a current issue you have with a person's conduct, or a certain topic on the board. This will not make the issue solved any quicker and will in all likelihood cause a worse problem.
9) If you believe a rule has been breached, it is a matter for PM's. Take it up with a mod, admin, or the person you believe is ill informed of the guidelines.
Just shut up and study it. Live by it.

You guys who can blame him for this, if I was geting as much spam as it sounds like he's getting I would be pretty pissed off to. So just quit spaming him and if it's important e-mail him start a topic or something, otherwise it isn't important enough to talk about if you can't post it!!!!
