I was never bashed or considered a newb here. Did I miss the initiation or something?

So it's not common practice then is it?

That thread on RH was started by horror.coms own mods to help pimp horror.com, so I don’t see what all the fuss is about …

Its pretty nice of reelhorror to let other sites pimp there, its not like they would be aloud to pimp here!

Basically people were invited over and then when they made a hello thread told to fuck off … I imagine that pissed them off …

I guess when you know what you're talking about it isn't. I've never been called a newb on UHM either.

Well that's great. How special you must feel:rolleyes: ;)

Of course no. I wish I was a newb.

We're famous.

This "election" business probably doesn't hurt the "in-crowd" pereception...:rolleyes:

we're so cool.

Agreed.....people over there are slightly more mature than the angst ridden teen's of Horror.com.....and it shows in every forum....especially in the new members forum....

I gotta be honest, when I first joined Horror.com...I would've been rather disappointed if I didn't get a major tongue-lashing from its resident evils.

I mean c'mon...it's a horror board. Newbs should feel a little uneasy when first posting...current members should thrive on trying to break down a newb to successfully portray the bad ass image of a horror community!

That being said -- I'm not speaking for myself -- but I'm sure some veterans may take it a little too far...but some newbs prob take things a little too personal.

I also agree with Hutchison, in that there aren't too many forums online where you can newb all over the place without some kind of resistance.
