If ekool didn't want it here, I'm sure he would of deleted it.

BTW, I am very relaxed

I was helping the members out with a false pretence you led them on, you notice there is less then half the response then if he were to post where the the majority posts and where the new members can share there joy with the rest of the forum. The rest of the forum doesnt seem to have a problem reading the posts like yourself, i guess if that was the case you wouldnt be the only one that posted such a DIRECTION for posts."NEW Members post here please" is a direction thread meant for a admin only. Just because you dont feel like weeding out posts doesnt mean you can tell other memebers what to do. You mentioned i was the same as you, man comeon far from it, i gave a suggestion so that the new members weren' t tricked into thinking this is the only place new members can post. I never created a thread that said "NEW Members post in general section please" Becasue i let them make up their own mind. And neither did i tell you what to do, i only mentioned that it wasnt a good idea and on the grounds of the free speach of this forum i can make suggestions as you can post this misleading thread. If you really believe what you wrote then your thread wouldnt have started with a direction. Becasue new members have any idea who you are.
If your so free with posting such threads then you should have no problem with me informing members that what they are looking for is to introduce themselves and get some feedback to see if this is the place they want to keep poisting. you look at the intros here and there is less then a handful, you check the area they might have been looking for but were steered by a post telling them to post here they got less responses and said hey to you and a few others. You say it ekool didnt want this he would have deleted it well go and PM him and see if he will take the time to research where new members post and see if the fact that 1 person doesnt feel like weeding them out is enough for him to create a new section for new members to post, then man there is nothing more to talk about and there is nothing more for me to chime in about, the problem is solved your more comfy with your forum reading and the new members also get what they want "to introduce themselves to the rest of the forum"


Btw I too am relaxed thanks for sharing. So feel free to tear into me if thats what you really want to do, your free to do so im not directing you or misleading you. Im not a mod nor the admin so i wont be telling you where to post or what to post. Im just sitting here with a beer and this post being the last thing on my mind.
