: im not in 8th grade im almost thru high school
~~Oooh, wow high school. You're in the big times now!
~~Look, I am a "newbie" as we are called, as well. I just have to say, three tips to not get flamed by our ever so wonderful regs.
1. Before you even read the board, let alone post, read the ENTIRE summaries section. Yes, it is long, but it takes less than an hour for people of average intelligence to read, and you find out some interesting stuff, and it saves you from sounding like a moron.
2. At least take the time to type like a normal person. Especially if you are posting on a web board that is seen by thousands of people, and want to be taken seriously.
3. Don't insult the people in red, they are the people that make VA work and they deserve respect, especially the totally awesome Brian Lynch.
Just some tips.
Oh yes, regs, I do apologize for the off topic response to the off topic post.

P.S. Boy, it's spelled "through."
