"Welcome! I've been expecting you. My name is Dark Venom. Lord Venom as every one call me."*

Agreed, although i have stated ways to improve this several times now...and somehow it always feels like my ideas is brought to deaf ears...
If i knew it would change something i could make a "n00b post" like the one 2extreme made earlier (but better ).. but unfortunately it just feels like a waste of time today. Give me some response for my&others ideas and i will do it...but for now it seems like most things gets ignored anyway.
I hope we get some speed in that "more active mods" thingy...
EDIT: Oh and btw hehe, welcome and i hope you enjoy your staying here...just dont start a new thread everytime you got something to stay ok? we already got plenty of those here

lol, just the fact that you see my post as a flame or whatever says more about you "being neutral" than it does about my actual post
But feel free to adress me what you meant was bad about my post...the fact that i actually want things to happend around here so things can possibly get better? well you sure got me there...guilty as charged.

You agreed with motor's post which was offensive and what I'd consider flaming, but never mind. And I couldn't give a damn if you consider me neutral far up someone's posterior you think what you like, me I'll just go right on not caring, no-ones neutral.
And you know already that I consider the practice of making each new member search nearly 60 pages for old threads to be ridiculous. And frankly I have no problem with hello this is me threads. We don't all want to jump in and make Heroes threads right away. Oh heaven forbid a noob for introducing himself, but with reactions like "Frigging Noob" I'd be suprised if any of them bothered to stay anyway.
Satisfied or shall I just give up now? If there's one thing I've learnt recently it's that people don't pay much attention to what you say and do, rather they look at what they expect you to say/do and try and fit what you say into that expectation. So go on everyone do what the hell you like with this reply, me I'll be somewhere else discussing something interesting rather than the same old crap that gets argued about here again and again.

Just one simple question for you then PH, why bother to make the post directed to me to begin with?
I dont buy this saint wannabe attitude from you for a second, fact is you toss and you toss and just try to get people going and as soon as things go heated you just run with the words "i dont wanna fight and now i will look at another thread since all you wanna do is fight"...well newsflash: dont make that first post to start with then since its only there to steer up trouble.
And if you look at this, please show me where i want to start a fight with you? ...well facts are i dont, i questioned that "neutral" stance you say you have... and i wanted you to point out how my post was offensive.

And concerning people only see "what they expect me to do", well that makes totally no sense at all...
how are you ever going to be able to judge a members post with an attitude like that? because once you judge it from what you expect it to be, it doesnt matter what is written since you only see what you wanna see.

hehe, if you had bothered to actually read what is written in one of my previous posts instead of only see what you "expect to happend" you would already know that i have brought up several ways to solve this issue to start with
"funny" isnt it?

I've said it before and will again, the IM system is open to use stiven. You call it cowardice, I call it keeping the board clean of arguments. Take your pick, but I aint starting another little flame war to suit you and make you feel superior to everyone else in your little world. the rest of this discussion I will IM to you. Suffice to say I have mentioned what I found offensive already, pay attention please.
Oh and yes I never did quite say I was neutral, in fact no-one is unless they have no feelings or opinions, so don't even try that with me. Not going to work this time. Oh and my opinions are none of your concern, if I want to find some members posts BS based on long experience then that's nothing to do with you, At least I'm honest enough to admit it rather than hiding behind lalalalala's and pretending to be neutral and having the interests of the board at heart.

Now, I'm no fan of neither Motor's nor Stiven's, but they do have a point. It is rather annoying when every new member makes his/her own post just to say hi. Make a thread with an actual subject, and tell us you're new at the same time. Take a look at the memberlist and picture each and every one of them making their own "Hi, I'm new"-thread.
That said, welcome, enjoy your stay, stay away from HOMMIV, and don't play on the interstate.
Post well

Ok I'm sorry I had no idea how much of a struggle and bind it is to say hello and be nice to people who have no experience of the board and no idea that a percentage of us find it annoying for simply saying hello! My mistake entirely.
Please will all noobs find an entirely new thread issue to make their introductions on, making sure it's not been covered before, has a new and exciting point and contains at least 50% of the post being about the new and exciting issue. If not please do not introduce yourself, eventually someone will notice you anyway............

I don't mind newbies when they start new thread to introduce or just show themselves for the first time...
There's no "Welcome New Members" forum or something like it here so Tavern is a normal choice for it. Better to open new thread then to come in "Attack Iraq" thread and post "Hello, my name is Rion. I play Heroes for 3 years and can beat all the campaigns!! On 200%!!! Ugh...and yes, let's bomb Iraq!!"

Or more likely "Hi, I didn't bother to read any of your posts, but I'm just going to repeat something I overheard in a coffee shop and think it makes me look profound."
