Hey, what was wrong with the "Introductions I I- Your first post on this board goes here" thread everybody else was using? It is the one right below this new one you started.

Might be a clue there.

And fill in your profile before posting again, if you would.

The top thread on the Introductions forum was the one to use. Do you always start off by posting before reading?

If you want to get all huffy about a spot correction, I can help you to not do it here. Try me.

Hey I wasnt getting all huffy, as you put it....I made a mistake my first time on the site and your spot correction was really rude. Thats the point I was making to you. I am not trying to pull any crap...I know better. All I was trying to convey is that I didnt see it and you acted like I did it on purpose.....As I said this is the first time on this site or a "post" site likeit and wasnt really sure how it all works....Thanks for the heads up though, now I know....

Curtis:

That was not rude, it was reality, and frankly, I was taking it pretty easy on you.

If you come back again, I hope that you have a better idea of what SA is, read and follow the rules before posting, and realize how not to get started here. I also hope that you do not display the same poor situational awareness and attitude at CMK if you return.

Adios. Next time is an NTR.

Forum Rules

Registration to this forum is free! We do insist that you abide by the rules and policies detailed below. If you agree to the terms, please check the 'I agree' checkbox and press the 'Register' button below. If you would like to cancel the registration, click here to return to the forums index.


Professional Soldiers Bulletin Board Rules:

1. Fill out your profile.

If you desire to engage a Quiet Professional in a discussion concerning issues you find interesting it is essential you fill out your profile. The Quiet Professionals are interested in knowing with whom they're discussing global terrorism before they post a reply. While you need not submit your birthday, a year of birth helps.

2. Introduce yourself with your first post.

When you come into our house we'd like to know a little about you. This assists in the framing of a response from a Professional Soldiers member.

3. No verbal attacks on families. Verbal assaults on a Professional Soldiers member's family will result in a warning and/or immediate banning from the bulletin board. Likewise a malicious verbal assault on a Quiet Professional will result in amusing the other Quiet Professionals and a possible banning by the board administrators.

4. Posting pictures: All posted pictures should be relevant to the thread they're being posted in. The posting of nudity will not be tolerated and will result in an immediate removal from the Professional Soldiers BB along with the poster.

5. Advertisements must first be approved by Professional Soldiers' Staff before posting. URLs in the signature line are not permitted. A link in a post is permitted as long as the link is relevant to the thread.

6. Think before you post. Post something stupid and we’ll let you know. Post something stupid twice and you’ll be gone. We ask no quarter and none will be given.

7. Use the search button. We are asked many of the same questions time and time again. The first time one asks a redundant question he/she will be warned, the second time might result in a banning.

8. Professional Soldiers' Staff reserves the right to edit, move, delete and/or ban anyone at anytime for any reason.

9. Individuals under the age of 17 are not encouraged to post. Individuals under the age of 14 are not permitted to register.

Professional Soldiers is owned and operated by Quiet Professionals. While all moderators may not be Quiet Professionals all of the administrators are and all have zero tolerance for foolish or troublesome members. Professional Soldiers' moderators have the total support of board administrators and Quiet Professionals. Any verbal assault on a PS moderator will not be viewed as amusing and will be dealt with unsympathetically by the board administrators.

Stupidity is not an excuse.

De Oppresso Liber


I have read, and agree to abide by the Professional Soldiers rules.
