Some reminders. Please read especially newbs.
Ok things have started to seep back in that I havent seen on AO for a while. For one people are just posting all kinds of topics in General Chit Chat, its more a pet peeve for some members than anything but there are plenty of forums, just a quick browse to see the relevent one. Also some members only post in specialist boards they are interested in so you may get more relevent help so its in your interests too.
Secondly the flaming of newbs like in the virus thread was quite sad, tell him why he is wrong or at least make sure he is doing something illegal. It took a while before nihil I think just posted what he wanted, the way people acted you would think his mission in life was to build some kind of super virus. Plus the amount of antipoints given for flames is a joke, give them to people who post tutorials or help newbies in the Newbie forum or something.
