You may not have noticed any sort of "formal rules" when you joined this site. I too am new to this site but did view the post for some days before posting. It seems to me that it is a Common Curtsey for your first post to identify yourself and tell the members of this board who you are and what you like. This generally allows persons to get to know someone as I, and others, may consider it rude to just walk in on a party where you know no one and don't make an attempt to tell people your name or who you are. The Board is much the same, it is polite to greet people, though there is "no written rule" much as many things in life.

I would suggest that if you do feel like continuing to be a member of the board to look at some of the advice out there for new members. I realize there is plenty of advice out there and that you may not listen or agree to everything but it wouldn't hurt to look at it in order to develop a sense of the board and act accordingly.

I also believe we are all adults here and insults in retaliation seem to get no where on this board much as in life.

I am new just as you are and am sure I may piss someone off on this board at sometime just as it seems you have. If I were in your postion I would take the above advice, appoligize and just forget about it. Everyone has there right to an opinion weither wrong or right and everyone makes mistakes.

Just a note that can't you see how these people have formed this impresion on you? Trust and respect are earned they not freely given out. In this day and age everyone should be careful especially with dealings over the internet where people are hundreds or thousands of miles away. You may consider this a bad thing but skepticism is a necessary evil.

Well thats just my advice, take it or leave it.
