These rules should be added to the newbie link

Hi.  Several of us have decided to provide a real guide for noobs so that they can survive this board without being flamed.  This is what I've gathered by lurking so far: 

 1.)  You aren't allowed to say the word prego.  Just.....because it annoys these people. 

2.)  If it seems too out of left field then its "MUD and not even good MUD." (WTF is good MUD?  Please provide examples.) 

3.)  If you have not reached a certain post quota then you may not post a BFP.

4.)  If the regs don't know you please see above.^^^^

5.)  Trolls/AEs without "good mud" are boring.  Nevermind the fact that the people saying that are "trolling" around for "good mud"

 P.S. I feel sorry for all of your husbands

Noooo, what's effing stupid is that these same things happen every day and cause drama.  Yet no one specifies how annoying doing these things are.

I thinks it's pretty abundantly clear how annoying doing those things really is. It is specified daily.

I'll bet.  You can't deny the productivity of having these rules though.  Of course Prim's post count would go down by at least 50%.

Then why aren't they in the noob link??  Don't you get tired of repeating yourself over and over and over?  If so simply add to the noob link.  How the fluck is anyone supposed to know how much anger the word "prego" can cause if you don't?

If you read a post... any post... containing the word "prego", I think the reaction is pretty clear. Maybe in the Newbie link the word "lurking" should be more clearly defined. Some of the people who say they have been lurking CLEARLY have not.

See now that is perfect.  Add that to the newb guide and things would be much more clear.  Spanks!

Nah. I don't have time for an AE. Much less arguing with myself. This one is its own brand of speshul.

PS the dishes are done, laundry folded and my kid is in bed. Big glass of vino in hand.

1) Prego is a sauce and I generally think less of people that use the word when they refer to pregnancy.

2) A "Good MUD" example is the fisting thread or the clear period....things that are at least creative enough to be entertaining.

3 and 4) If we don't know you then why should we be happy for you?

5) Duh.

You are a dumbass.
