When I was a n00b

Let me start this off by saying I HATE terms like noob, newbie, etc. But I thought this would be a fun idea for a game. Just tell a story or quote a post from when you were new (here or to the net in general) and the dumb things you did.

Me, I made this post:

I was making the assertion (incorrectly, of course) that the BAD BRAINS were more influential than The Velvet Underground. Thankfully FaSho was a nice enough guy to realise I was a noob and not chew me out, too much.

I'll play this game when I'm no longer a noob.

I believe noobitry ends after 200 posts.

Not in my opinion.

Dwell time is probably more of a factor, along with contribution and acceptance.
If one could get away with it, one could make 200 posts consisting of the word "fart", and still be a noob.

I really cant get my head around why so many people like them, theyre music is nothing short of uninspiring rubbish.

& my famous post on Rolling Stones Vs The Beatles

I had a lot of ranting to do when i first came on here, ive kind of mellowed out a bit now.

Ha, this website has always had Stones and Beatles fans pissing eachother off. Managing to piss off both at the same time was a pretty bold move, I think.

Yeah well killing two birds with one stone is always a bold move in my book

People still hate me for it too.

I'll post something here in a minute, but pretty much my first 1000 posts are riddled with n00bity.
