a always said that a newbie that turns into a regular is someone i remember the name of like if two newbies join and one talks to me and starts posting and i remember that person i consider them like not a newbie really but people that joined this month r newbies but they r members so they deserve just as much respect as say raz or backfire etc...
To be perfectly honest i've been to a couple of forums (and online games for that matter) be it as member and as a guest and often (not all the time) you get the feeling that you are a nOOb which can often make you feel alienated from the other more established members,but from personal experience and comparison that is certainley not the case for a newly registered user coming to the KMC forums both KMC admin and fellow members make new members welcome and not once have i read a post critiscising a new member for that exact reason. The reason behind this could be down to the simple fact that KMC has over 13,000 members and each day more members are joining plus the large majority that join are recurring members,pluswe were all nOObs one time,so we were all in the same boat. Thats just my opinion 🙂
