newbe's corner

rmyc · #1 01-12-2003, 02:12 AM

hey tiny i've seen alot of newbes not knowing the abriviations used on the forums. you should put an area for this

like ...

LHS= local hobby shop
RS= Radioshack

and so on...

i think it would help alot of those newbes to understand the forums better

thanks

Why don't you just make a thread listing all the abbrev. and ask for it to be a sticky.

well if your too lazy to write radio shack... then why bother looking up what RS means? heh heh.

Why don't we all just speak standard English?

I think we should make my link thread sticky lol, i know it has no relation to the topic but o well, i may bump it up.

thats a horrible idea. if that overdevelops it turns this place into some giant underground secret nerd cult and nothing usful gets done.

Nathan · #7 01-12-2003, 11:21 AM

My point exactly.

yeah some thing like arse wouldn't be on it and shouldn't be used.

but what i'm talking bout is a place where tiny, and only tiny, would post the most used abbreviations.
'cause everyone uses abbreviation and everyone will keep on
using 'em.

i think it'll be helpful... i wana hear what you think bout it , Tiny.

Namuna · #11 01-13-2003, 10:06 AM

Alright, let's give it a go. If it gets enough traffic I'll add it to the 'Look HERE First' Sticky.

Here it is.

thanks Namuna

i hope this will help alot of newbe

the way i was thinking about it was: only the admins will be able to post, so it stays in one format ans style
