OK, it may be a mortal sin to not read the summaries.
OK, the point of the summaries is to prevent repetetive postings - we all know how annoying it is to arrive at these boards and see the same shit over and over.
But did it ever occur to anyone that these endless posts about "Read the summaries" are causing exactly the same problem? All I see when I get here is "read the summaries"!
And its not like us newbies are pointed in that direction very politely by all of you... how about saying "Hello" before coming out with stuff like "I suggest you apologise fast"?
It seems to me that some people use the Summaries, etc. as a kind of badge to demonstrate their importance here.... kind of "I belong here, you don't, so fuck off."
Yes, I'm new here too.
Hello.
I've read the summaries.
: Basically, you committed the mortal sin of the board by not reading the summaries. Dont feel bad. 90% of new people (including myself) have been reminded of this very thing. Unfortunately, you picked about the worst possible thing to ask, "What happened to Clerks 2." It's in the summaries and just about every board, someone asks about it. It gets quite annoying. Again, dont take it personally, just read the summaries before asking questions to aviod people giving you smart ass answers.
