westernrider 06-24-2004, 02:48 PM I think it is interesting when you find a crazy newbie... that is always bumping up threads and is just a pure annoyance. But, then they start to post and as time goes on they become a normal human being. Like my first post was something like
PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I NEED help! I am not sure how to explain this but I really want it to look like [insert link here] pleeeeeaaaase help... I am desperate! AHHHHHHHHHH
Now I find I am semi-better... but I can be just as annoying as anyone :P
I just find it neat when you see people mature online right in front of your eyes. And once you have been in a forum long enough you see that :buckt:
Dude128 06-24-2004, 03:22 PM "online right in front of your eyes"- I was amused by that heh :P
I remember being told I was kind of annoying when I was new here- I'm glad I've matured over the last 3 years, online and off :)
Shirl 06-24-2004, 03:43 PM hehehe:) Well I was part of another forum before joining this one, so I knew what annoys people, and I tried to avoid doing those things here at LEIA:)
lefty 06-24-2004, 04:12 PM I remember being told I was kind of annoying when I was new here- I'm glad I've matured over the last 3 years, online and off :)
Who says anything has changed?
Wait, I didn't mean to write that :P
I was your "typical newbie" myself, always trying to help people, even when I didn't really know the answer... the mods must have hated me :P
Cherchezlafemme 06-24-2004, 04:15 PM I was the worst of them all :lolol: I got 1000 posts in a month lmao got in avatar in a week and i'm the reason why fiction posts dont count anymore :rofl: and that's not all of it either :lol:
Marianne 06-24-2004, 04:57 PM I was a moderator before I posted my first post and I failed to even notice the rules first.
I also remember on my first day here I told people it was my bedtime and I'd be back by tomorrow... :blush:
kittycat 06-24-2004, 05:01 PM *glares at cherchez* and that's why you're still on my list.... :P
The first time I joined I actually did read the rules, then came back 2 months later and forgot all about them... oops :P At least I'm not as annoying as I first was (or so I think :P)
lefty 06-24-2004, 05:03 PM Yeah if I recall correctly, I came and posted a little, then disappeared for three months or so, and you haven't been able to get rid of me since. :lol:
westernrider 06-25-2004, 12:12 AM I was one of thoes people that you would some into the chat section and on every single thread it would say "last post by westernrider" :P
sebluver 06-25-2004, 01:19 AM *glares at cherchez* and that's why you're still on my list.... :P
You know, some day someone's going to want to have a good look at that list..
My second post was something like, "I didn't advertise!!1!"
I was one of thoes people that you would some into the chat section and on every single thread it would say "last post by westernrider" :P
I still am. :blush:
I hope I have "matured" at least a little in the past year or so. :P
How come I dont remember doing anything annoying? lol I feel left out :(
salomeyasobko 06-25-2004, 02:05 AM i was annoying too! i remember i wrote "anywh0o" and "o0o" a lot just so i had a reason to do a double o-zero thing :lol: also, i would make the font TINY and arial and multicoloured and i would always forget the [/color] tag, which was very annoying.
oooh and i backseat modded like crazy. i would search for double posts so that i could yell at the person. literally. finally bethy stopped me ;) whoo i am glad i don't do that anymore! and at least i didn't ask how to get an avatar :D
hopefully i'm not as annoying anymore!! right?? :o
Yeah, you don't forget the [/color] tags. ;)
thezeppzone 06-25-2004, 02:40 AM yep i remember marie when she joined lol.....i cant remember but i can look my first post up

I don't remember for sure (I looked mine up a couple days ago:P) but I think Dude was the only one who responded to mine... because I didn't understand frames. :lol:
SizzZzlinhair 06-25-2004, 03:41 AM I posted the same question in two different forums :lol:
I remember Dan saying in one of them "Umm.. no need to post this twice, we saw it the first time.." :hehe:
salomeyasobko 06-25-2004, 03:45 AM I posted the same question in two different forums :lol:
I remember Dan saying in one of them "Umm.. no need to post this twice, we saw it the first time.." :hehe:i did that before too! and i also PMed a mod [can't remember who, though] asking to change my thread name from "iframe position help" [or something] to "HELPPP!!!!!!!!!!" because i wasn't getting enough views/help with the other title :lolol: i remember when i used to look at how many views my threads got and so i'd always make the titles more "interesting" to spruce up the number of potential helpers. :hehe:
Dude128 06-25-2004, 05:55 AM Who says anything has changed?
are you trying to tell me something? :P
it seems like a lot of the people that are the real regulars now disappeared shortly after signing up- I did it too- I signed up, made a few posts, then disappeared for a few months before returning. maybe that break is the only reason we haven't lost our minds yet :P
kicker91 06-25-2004, 06:15 AM *shudders* Me... my first weeks here... *dies*
westernrider 06-25-2004, 01:34 PM haha... I tried to find my first post but I can't go that far back in history or something. I just know I was a pain. Whenever any one had a small little problem with me... even if it was just something like a double post... I would be like "I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO SORRY... oh gosh I feel baaaad... forgive me :( PLEAZ!!!11!!!!1!!" like I would try to suck up and stuff... bah..
yep i remember marie when she joined lol.....i cant remember but i can look my first post up

thats insane? I was the 7th member and Viki was the 9th lol
Can't find my first post :( After 4 years its probably gone..
thezeppzone 06-25-2004, 03:26 PM jeeze that is crazy to think about, i thought my number was lol. I took a break for a few months last year when i got busy with school and such but then that slowed down so i came back, plus i was waiting for my sister to reactivate our website and I really had no use to come here. Despite nowadays I only post in these sections because i dont have questions anymore and the questions people ask i either dont know or someone already helped them lol

Yes I rock! :lol:
It kind of scares me that the regulars can look up their first posts and I'm in them. I'm not that old, am I? :P
jessi15 06-25-2004, 04:12 PM Knowing how much you all hate people typing LiKe tHiS, I must have been annoying
First thread: http://www.lissaexplains.com/forum/showthread.php?t=45265
Normally I don't do the whole sticky caps thing, but when you're bored...
I know I've always been the boring, loner type, and still am, so I don't know how much I've really changed.
This one was funny: http://www.lissaexplains.com/forum/showthread.php?t=45641
Title: ScRoLl BaRs???? :lolol:
westernrider 06-25-2004, 04:50 PM how are yall finding your first post? I can not find mine :buckt: it was probably something about HTML or something.
lefty 06-25-2004, 05:04 PM Somehow, I remember the topic of my first post, so I found mine that way.
I remember my first thread in the chat section; it was a poll about whether or not you fold your pizza when you eat it. Starlet thought it was odd. :P
jessi15 06-25-2004, 05:10 PM how are yall finding your first post? I can not find mine :buckt: it was probably something about HTML or something.
I don't know, that was the first thread I made, but it was probably my first post too. I'm not much of a thread starter. I only have 2 pages if you check in my profile. I think that the most recent one I started was the creation vs. evolution one, and that was quite a while back.
thezeppzone 06-25-2004, 05:20 PM lol but i only joined less than a year after you....shouldnt make a whole difference, except that your a mod and have 5700 more posts than me lololol
westernrider 06-25-2004, 05:29 PM *dies laughing* this is my first thread... so my first post I am guessing
HELP! I can not figure out how to posision this thing!
OK... I help in this harry potter guild on neopets. I am like the HTML person even though I do not know much about it. I always have to come here for codes and such. I dont have adobe photo shop or anything so I can not mend text and words togeather...so I used a blog code and took away the scroll...the problem is, is I have these huge gaps in places and I try to fill them in but for some reason they wont go up in there. I think i dose that since I have the altered blog codes in there this is the guild HERE. PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

hahahaha... that was back when I was soooo into neopets... that is the best... I even remember posting it :P
Marianne 06-25-2004, 10:23 PM When you first started, Sophie, I thought you were someone else...
weird girl 06-26-2004, 09:55 AM I remember the newb days.... :P I don't think I was too bad, but I probably got on a few's nerves.
I think it is neat to see others maturing, especially myself... I look back on the past and see what I was like before, and realize how much I've changed.. okay I'll stop now :buckt:
This (http://www.lissaexplains.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46520&highlight=quizzes) was my first thread :P
starlet 06-26-2004, 04:03 PM Hehe yeah i remember i used to find westernrider and cherchez pretty annoying :P
I dont remember having been THAT annoying, im sure i did some annoying stuff now and then but i dont think i was ever all 'n00b-like' but then...i've probably just blocked it all out!
Makar 06-26-2004, 05:11 PM I just can't believe I joined last April, and the forum population has more than doubled since then. :eek:
I'm still kicking myself over my first post. I had no clue how CSS worked, and I was putting the scrollbar code and everything in the body section. Actually, I still have problems of where to place things...I asked a really stupid PHP question related to that not too long ago. :lol:
westernrider 06-26-2004, 11:56 PM I think I would have been pretty annoyed at a person like me if I was someone else... I was the regular ole noob...
When you first started, Sophie, I thought you were someone else...
hmm... that is interesting... who did you think I was?
starlet 06-27-2004, 12:16 AM Someone who everyone disliked and was like the only person in LEIA history to be banned for being so annoying (rather than actual rule breaking lol)
westernrider 06-27-2004, 12:29 AM oh no... I think I remember you talking saying something about her in the over 13 forum that used to be there. I am sorry if I was that annoying 0_o ... I hope my IP addresses tell you that I was not her... gosh... I am so sorry... now I feel bad... I knew I was a pain but not that bad... lol. Dude... man... ok... sorry al for my super noobness :P
Magln Meow 06-27-2004, 03:37 AM Sighhh... I noticed I changed. :lolol: Some people on LEIA are changing too.
Owlie42 06-27-2004, 03:43 AM Oh...I remember before we had a lot of the regular posters at the moments...
Marianne 06-27-2004, 07:57 AM oh no... I think I remember you talking saying something about her in the over 13 forum that used to be there. I am sorry if I was that annoying 0_o ...

We definitely checked IP addresses and the lot, but that's not 100% conclusive. You HAVE definitely changed, now, even if you were her, I don't think anyone wants you to go any more.
But yes, you took some getting used to ;)
MysteryP 06-27-2004, 08:19 AM I disappeared a long time too. I didn't reappear yet, though :)

You mean everyone thought that she was Sher...someone else? Hmm, I never caught on to that, I mean, I remember what she was like, and I don't remember Sophie ever being that annoying...heh.

True, she was not that annoying, and she got less annoying as time went by :)
