As long as they stick by the rules they are more than welcome, never hurt to have more people IF they are organised and civil.

you have under 400 posts, and 3 question threads in the first page of the forum.. I think new members is relative.

We wouldn't have gems like this thread if we didn't have new members.

That's quite alright. My prior comment was 40% confusion and 60% "That sounds funny to me right now" ^_^

Oh dear. I wasn't expecting to settle an internet fight. Well, you've both joined the Escapist forum May 2008, and although he joined on the 16th, 4 days doesn't make much of a difference compared to a year.

Unless of course, it's 4 days in labor. Thank goodness both of my kids were a year apart. If I had to stay in labor for 4 days...I don't want to think about it.

This is a little ironic. I joined the forum to forget I was a mom for a few minutes each day and remind myself I'm still a hip gamer. Do they still use the word "hip"? Is that still in?

for the purposes of our parle, id have to say yes, "hip" is still "in"...and i wouldnt have called that an internet fight...more of a freight train of angry...and the only reason it wasnt a fight was probably because he looked at it and realized i was right.

yes it is very good, it grows the community, helping make discussions more varied with opinions, anyways, the mods do a great job of filtering the crap that comes through

It's a good thing new people are joining.
But I think some of them, some not all, should maybe lurk a bit and learn how the Escapist rolls. No "txt-spk" for one thing, proper use of punctuation and grammar and last but not least: Spelling.

Let's just say you both drop this argument before I feel like *my* mother. Yes, I know Altorin made an offhand remark that you took offense to, and yes, I know you were only defending your point of view, but please don't call your brother a dickhead.

And before you say that you didn't directly call him that, and it was his comment that seemed dickheaded, I know. I just want you two to get along. So please, please, PLEASE let mommy have her vodka drink in peace!

And no, I don't really drink vodka.

As a brand new forum member, I'm pretty sure I can't vote for anything other than 'Absolutely'.
