And a good reason that noobs get a fair share of the heat is because they haven't contributed the the forums yet. Starting flame wars (or just prodding the fire) is no way to get brownie points here.
A bit funny because you were one of the first people to throw out some insults at me over a stupid thing I did in about 3 of my posts. You could have just said to not do it again and it would have been fine but you chose to resort to insults. I'm saying this nicely, just to make a point, so don't feel that I am attacking you in any negative way.

Like I said, I contributed to many threads around here but people can't seem to steer away from those two posts. I could certainly understand if all 80 of my posts were flames and pure trouble making but they haven't been, it's been 2 posts. Kinda silly to make a huge deal out of that. I am sure many people have made a few of those posts in their time here and I still think it goes both ways. It's not fair that I get destroyed over two posts while people openly called me a slut for absolutely no reason at all other than to be jerks. Even a mod stepped in and made a comment. Yes, I was going with the flow and, based on the few times I have spoken to this mod, he seems like a great person with a sense of humour but his comment could have still been seen as a bit of an insult without using so many words. I didn't take it badly but it was still the fact that it was my first or second day here and it happened so it wasn't like people knew that I am pretty light hearted about things but it was still said and the person who called me a slut didn't get anything said to them. their comments pretty much go against the point of this thread....ironically, made by that same mod, lol.

Ah well, I'm in a bit of pain here and don't feel like turning this thread into a thread about me defending myself more than I already have because I'm sure it's making this thread zzzZZzzzzzZ but to make a summary, to get respect you have to give it. I was disrespected for no reason right off the bat but I am expected to respect everyone else just because I'm new. Not really fair but I'm nobody so....
