No, a lot of them do these days. And if there's no point, why even have the ranking system then? I usually don't even worry about it, but when I see somebody new join and fifty people jump down their throat with the community FAQ, it makes me angry because you know they wouldn't even try helping if they didn't get anything for it. And they do anyways, even though one person posted what they need, people continually post here look at the community FAQ, here look at the community FAQ, and on and on! And all of them expect DPs for doing it. And they get it, while people who actually try to improve the forum with good stuff get nothing. Sorry for my rant, I'm just not in a good mood right now.


Gotta agree with you there, it's fairly annoying to see people write an essay and half, links and all, when every single new user should have enough sense about them to check the FAQ ANYWAY. Im probably guilty of doing the same thing from time to time but on retrospect, its annoying.

We should have a "Im new" thread, for newcomers to introduce themselves, talk abit about themselves. None of this "HI IM NEW!" followed by a bunch of posts saying "COOL HEY ENJOY YOUR STAY!"

Actually, it should be named "New? Introduce yourself here!"

...And it should be stickied.

I arent making it, but if someone wants to take on board that idea, go for it.


You know...that is a great idea. I'll talk to Crow and see if we can have that.


Been there, done that. It doesn't work. People don't pay close attention to the sticky threads anyway. We've had threads like that before and they've never ever worked. It's a great idea in theory, but it always fails in execution.

I pretty much did the first introduction thread which was pretty big, but it didn't last. Others have since done it also and they don't work. Stickies in general are usually ignored so it's not worth the effort.

Celebrity Big Brother has caused a National uproar and after tonights show, it's only going to get bigger!

It's been talked about all over the radio, daytime tv shows, the news and even on the front pages of newspapers. It's also been discussed in Parliament and Tony Blair has even been informed today. TV Stars have complained as have over 10,000 viewers and that's a ecord for Big Brother complaints.

And it's all because of how Shilpa is being treated by Jade, Jo and Danielle. Those 3 girls and the bullying they're doing (which looks like racial bullying to many, even to others inside the house) are just plain awful. I can't wait to see them get their comeuppance. All 3 await a rude awakening when they leave the house. Especially Jade as she's been dropped by anti-bullying campaigns and for a part in a play she got before entering the house!

*Nods in agreement*

The glass is always half full in my opinion.

If some form of intro thread has failed in the past its because it hasnt been good enough, simple as that.

A proper intro thread will do the trick Im sure.

Introduction forum....get it done.

And this Big Brother thing Tgrant....is absolute bullshit......yes i agree that the poor girl (Who is nicegrin) is getting bullied a bit in there.

But no way is it racist...."That Asian Girl" is not racist.....because she is Asian.

And "Do they eat with their hands in asia" is just Ignorance, not racism.

And as far as randomly skitting the accent.....i skit the scouse accent and the Newcastle accent and the london accent, all the time, its not racist.

Good idea and it does seem to work on other sites. The things to remember though are:
1) Just because it works elsewhere, it doesn't mean it'll work here.
2) Will people really go into it when they arrive?
3) Will people already here go into each day just to see if some new person has arrived and how the hell would we know due to bumps etc? From experience it gets tedious doing so and trying to keep track.
4) Said forum doens't really fit in with the rest that we have already as they're all MK based save this one, the General forum.
5) And CCS hasn't been around as far as I know. And he's always busy as far as I know. I've messaged him enough times to have a dodgy PM in my inbox removed and have been waiting a good 6+ months. Who knows how long it'd take to add a new forum.
Skinsley, I guess I can agree in some respect. However they have made comments based directly at Shilpa's culture or the people and stuff like that can't be ignored. Plus, Jade's bizarre dream about her, Jo and Danielle fighting Shilpa and her family should sound warning bells.
And I just got shown this. Where's my change? Lol!

With regards to the Big Brother-related threads.

Big Brother is a reality show, showing us people acting naturally for the sole purpose of our viewing pleasure.

Racism exists, as do alot of many other traits frowned upon within society.
Fact is, we all want reality TV, but complain when we dont like it.

Simple words yet pretty deep, think about it.

Basically, I'm gonna make a lot of sigs based on one theme.

Instead of my sigs being different styles each time I make one... There gonna be based on just one.

The theme is Basic. Like my recent signature.
