Advice to you newer users

Well guys,

As you can see, I have a fairly new account so you would think I am new myself. Wrong.

I was banned for coming onto RIU and being a pain in peoples rear ends so I just wanted to extend a little bit of my learning curve in the newbie section.

Be respectful, be open, and try to help others out. Don't be like me and log on just to be a pain in peoples asses. Watch what you say because people around here don't forget. It's a rather small community that I've grown to like but once you are marked as a trouble maker it is really hard to get back your positive rep.


So.. keep it clean and respectful and you'll have a great time on RIU.

Welcome to the board,

Krondizzel

Thank you kindly. I hope I can salvage the old account. I'm sure rollie will be keeping a close eye on me to make sure I don't make the same mistakes twice.
Are you sure they will be so forgiving as to let you continue with this account?

I wouldn't have mentioned this. The time it took me to think up another cool username without numbers and underscores on youtube when my yt was deleated spanned over a few days.

The person who banned me already knows I am back under a new name. Maybe he will forgive me, maybe not, but... he knows I'm here so.. if he gives me the boot again.. well, just goes to prove my point on this post... don't burn all your bridges lol

you must have been a real dick to get banned, I'm not shit talking because I'm no angel up in here myself but to the best of my knowledge I've never been banned(probably pretty close a few times). glad to see you AND admin handling this in a mature way.

Actually, I was very happy with the response that I got from the admin after writing him an apology letter as well.

I was permabanned on my first ban which usually is unheard of... usually you'll get a week off or so but.. the admin decided no more antics... and I don't blame him.

Also, the report button does work very well so if you have an issue with another user, it is best to take it to PM or use the report button. Try to let the mods handle things and try not to let your "personality" fight the battle for you.

The report button works great, I can vouch for that. I almost wish I could see how many times I have been reported just to see how dumb I was lol. I know it works because I would constantly get PM's from the admin warning me that I was out of line and then eventually he had enough of my antics and decided it was best to ban me.

Sunni, I already said I was sorry to you. There is no need for you to follow me around just to keep it up. If you cannot accept my apology, that is fine, but please.. you don't need to follow me around putting your 2 cents all the time. Please sunni, I'd like to squash the beef but... you're making it kind of difficult? Can you.. ease up? Thank you.

I offer great advice and look at my poor Rep :/ I mean, really, it's fine but no rep here - what advice you ask? advice like.... when transplanting, don't fill your pots full of soil, leave about an inch of space for water to collect and filter through your soil when you water. Maybe I advise too many noobs who don't know about the Rep System - lol, I have fun on here so I don't care - but if anyone wants to give an old RIUer some love; here's a great opportunity :weed:

My rep on this account was higher than yours overnight. (not bragging).. If I ever get my other acct back, I'll throw some rep your way :)
