The Doc actually spoke of the anti-newbie feeling..... I don't agree with him and I wanted to make sure I wasn't alone.......

There's a huge difference between "some talk" and one lone asshole shooting his ignorant mouth off.

A little over one hour later it seems we have a consensus. There seems to be little/no harsh attitudes towards new members......

As quiet possably the newest of the newbies, I will say that No there is no Anti-noobism... and i know about Anti-noobism... I mod on a board with 9000+ members and well people just dont like new people.

Here its been wonderful, I had lurked around for a few weeks, then when i had a question I just joined up and started a thread. Felt very welcomed, even welcome enough to make a wise crack on the first day. But yall are a pretty nice crew, keep in mind that someone will come along and think everyone hates them because they;re new, when they just hate them because they are a tool. Its ineveitable.

And that is all I have to say.

LMAO!

There's no anti-newbie 'tude here. There is plenty of anti-BS mentality.

OH MAN, you hit the nail right on the head, Mavido

I've seen quite a few other cases where egomaniacs (like Scotty, corona gigante and now fpdoc) come in here and automatically resent the fact that THEY:
1. Don't have a high post count and others do.
2. Don't have senority and others do (even though it means nothing, these jerkoffs have a chip on their shoulder just because they are insecure and jealous or who knows why?)
3. Aren't shown an even level of respect as more established and experienced members. Sorry jerk offs, that's just the nature of the beast, whether it be an on-line cigar BB, an employment situation, a college fraternity, a political party organization or whatever.

So they look for reasons to justify their prejudices, like fpdoc constantly posting that I "brag about not having to work and owning X number of Jaguars"

when the reality is I have NEVER posted anything that even resembles that here or on any other on-line internet BB that I'm a member of.

Bottom line is there's no way in the world that an insecure, arrogant, egotistical asshole like fpdoc is EVER going to think there's NOT an anti-newvbie mentality here or anywhere else. People like that are either out to lunch or mentally ill and unfortunately there's nothing much we can do about it other than to send them packing.
