What warning would you give to a new member?

[The Great Zegrool]

If you could warn a new member of the Escapist, what would the warning be about.
These can't be rules, it just has to be a general warning about the Escapist Forums.

For example: If you see a member named JoobNoob(or any variation on that), make sure you read the post carefully, and If it has to do with Halo, you should probably report them.

Watch video first then post after.

Watch video first then post after.

This, or don't make controversial threads.

Most probably this.

Also, don't create any zombie apocalypse threads or religion threads.

 

[captainwillies]

don't talk about rape or feminism

 

[bodyklok]

I'd tell them not to take shit form any mother fucker, stick to their guns, argue their point, and blow the living mother fucking shit out of all that oppose them.

I'd also warn him to do so and politely as possible, otherwise he'll get banned.

 

[Troublesome Lagomorph]

Read the OP!!!!

Don't fuck with Max or Neonbob

Don't blantantly express your views on a game that you think is fail. Take time to explain why you dislike or hate the game rather then, "z0mg, C0ck 0f Dood!E 5 sux compaared to Call Of Win 5" or "Halo 3 be@t$ teh sh!t out of Fail-Life 2."

 

[thiosk]

Do not post "how old are you?" threads.

There are hundreds of them. With polls.

 

[The Rogue Wolf]

Don't be a putz.

Really, humanity would be so much better as a whole if we all followed that sage advice.

 

[GHMonkey]

Trolls are real here, watch what you say or they will eat you alive to the point where you rage quit your browser

 

[The Great Zegrool]

[yoda]Your memes.

You will not need them.[/yoda]

But isn't that kind of a meme?

 

[KittywifaMohawk]

Use proper spelling and grammar, don't use smiley faces all that often, and don't use "lols, roflz, or lmaoz" more then one time in a post. Only do it when you're just fucking around.
Oh and to tell them to use the search bar.

 

[aakibar]

avoid Halo threads that are one sided report them as quickly as possible.

SEARCH BAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

when posting on a yahtzee video stop with the praise and stop with First you are not being helpful to the community. if you do i will choke you

 

[Clashero]

Don't be afraid to express your opinion, although be careful about liking Halo, disliking TF2 or HL2. Anime and JRPG's are 50-50. Also, be polite, don't quote Yahtzee.

Or how about just reading the rules?
