To be honest, I never actually felt like a n00b. I joined EvThreads in January this year, and before that, I seriously had absolutely no idea what the heck was a forum or message board. It was the first board that I actually joined (I believe I was redirected to it while looking through the Evanescence Reference), but I kinda ignored it for a few days. Then, the next time I logged in, I started posting right away, and right away I got the hang of it. The only real n00bish thing I did was that I started a thread that I guess was inappropriate, and it got deleted, so I seriously started a new thread asking why that thread had been deleted and demanding an explanation. Not only was there already a thread called "what happened to my thread" where I could've asked, but I started this "I want an explanation!" thread on the Evanescence Exchange forum, rather than the Help forum. I almost got in trouble, and LuckyStar (mod on EvThreads) got mad at me, but right away I apologized and everything was okay. I learned from this that it's easier to just PM a mod if I ever have questions. But besides that, I never actually felt like a n00b where I really had no idea what to do and felt alone. People are usually really nice, and as long as you're nice, too, you'll probably be liked right away and make friends. And I've never actually started a repeated thread. I don't start threads very often, but I know that I'm supposed to use the search button.
Here on EvBoard, I pretty much already knew how things worked when I joined (a few weeks ago). The only thing I'm still not too sure of is the plaza, but that's because I haven't actually tried to buy anything. I'm sure it'll be clear and simple once I actually try to use it, though. There's a lot more forums and subforums than on EvThreads, but I haven't seen anything confusing about it. It's still just threads where you go and post.
So that's my n00b speech, I'm done now. Bye.
By the way, that post that's a few posts away from this one, which has Noob Saibot in it is AWESOME!!!! A little something about Noob Saibot: Noob spells Boon when reversed, and Saibot spells Tobias. Both are last names of two different people that worked on creating the Mortal Kombat games (Noob Saibot is a Mortal Kombat character).
