I know the desire is to keep the close-knit community feeling, and not that I'm sick of y'all, but it would be nice if we had a way of getting some new blood in here, i.e. members that weren't on the old boards. I know it increases the workload of the moderators, but some growth would be nice, just a thought. |

It's always been okay to go "word of mouth" - You know someone from another community who's a "decent joe"...nothing wrong with inviting them. It's good to know that good people bring in good people. It's right to expect "new members" to feel that they're not going to let a friend down, or "fuck them over", by acting like a douche. Is that reasonable? |

Sounds pretty reasonable to me. I think we were all a tad hesitant given the fragile peace a message board can have before the newbies start pouring in. |

^word^ Bring on new friends, but as the immortal phase states: "Thou shalt not be a douche" |

Actually the Ten commandments (which are really words for survival of us as a species and the threat of divine vengeance is merely, as Plato so aptly put it, because people cannot remain "just" without threat of harm) can be condensed into that single line....dont be a fuckin douche.

One distinct difference between here and the old boards; -If they violate the sacred trust of "Don't be a douche"; they can be terminated, no questions asked. -I believe the second sacred verse is "Bring forth The Holy Hand Grenade." |

I was trying to get a friend to join the old boards before the WSOD but she was intimidated because of it being the official team boards. I'll see if I can get her to come on here. |

Wait. I thought this was the official team board.  Friends don't let friends be douches. |
