Welcome aboard all.

I would recommend that if you are not a HS grad yet, and maybe a college grad as well, you should probably confine your activites on PS.com to just reading for a month or two.

Asking questions here is not bad, but asking stupid questions is, and at some ages, you just don't know enough to tell the difference.

Go to "Your Rucksack is in the Hall" for some good examples of bad questions.

Attention to detail, reading and searching, and situational awareness are valued here. No detail is too small to notice and deal with correctly.

Some of you must have missed the note about filling in at least the major points of your profile.

Looks like most of the new members at least know how to spell and use proper grammar, so that lesson is not needed. Just remember, this is not a text message friendly site, or a for non-QPs, a place to start new threads without very good reason.

Hope that you all enjoy your stay and find what you are looking for.

Thanks for the opportunity to serve.
