We'll see... I don't even know if there will be a news summary.
Without a news summary keeping up with this is hopeless (why I want to I'm not sure). Page 1 represents only 8 hours right now.

No actually I've called anyone who can't work out who I am talking to when I quote them brain damaged. Did you have trouble with that when you first came to the site?

No, he hasn't. It was more like my "If his post wasn't sarcastic, I am a skunk." I didn't call myself a skunk there either.

I don't see how anyone could miss that. The quote is right above the post, in the same box. You don't need to know anything about this forum to understand that.
It depends on where the eye lands first.

Well, if you miss it first, you'd look for a clue if you don't know whom he was talking to, wouldn't you?

I had trouble with several isuses when I first came to this site. From time to time I still have my moments. That might not have been one of them, but I could see how it could happen with someone. It doesn't nessisarily make them stupid. Maybe they might have a bad moment. There are a lot of easy repeditive questions in the help forum. So things do happen.

If I had become angry I might not. And I doubt you would.
But I will say this, it is not a very good welcoming. And if I were running a business. I would be kicking some behinds. If that was the welcoming a potential customer received. It might sound retarded to you but any good manager would change your mind if you were in their employment.

the original poster stated at the beginning that he/she hadn't used a forum before.

Why would he become angry because someone calls someone an idiot? There was nothing in Xanthos' post which would suggest that he was calling the first poster an idiot. As for the welcoming, you think your posts were more welcoming than Xanthos'? Like "There is a photo competition here somewhere. But if you won all those who entered and were here first would hate you"?

Yes, and so? As I said, there's nothing hard to understand about it even if you haven't used any forum before.

Xanthos usually likes to welcome newcomers with her ascerbic comments in the "help" forum.

At least she's getting out and delivering her own special welcome directly to the people.

Believe it or not, she's some kind of "official" representative of the site.
Go ask a question in the help forum and she'll tell you you're brain dead for asking.

Don't think that just because you can push others around that it'll work with me.

Nice try twisting my words. What I said is that one advert doesn't make a lick of difference in between the utter tripe you and your ilk spout day after day in here.

I don't want to see advertisements any more than I want to see your posts but I don't get a choice in the latter so why should you in the former?
