I've spent the last week reading all the threads on the forum in bulk and have observed that the newer members tend to revive dead threads that should be left alone. The newer members also waste server space by creating threads that have already been made and a decision reached.
Therefore I have decided that this thread could be a small do's and dont's for newer members.
1. Don't. If the last comment on a thread dates back to more than a month ago, leave it be the outcome has more than likely been reached.
2. DO. When you create a title for your thread normally there will be a drop down section portraying, possibly, similar threads that as above have already been resolved, read those suggestions first as you may find the answer your looking for.
3. Don't. Try and win an argument with ButterBallBill, even if you have a clearer and better point of view, he's too stubborn to listen.
4. DO. Respect and do as the admin and mods say, they are the law on the forum and the reason it is as good as it is.
5. Don't. argue with the intention to offend someone, it doesn't make you appeal to others and you will get picked up on it.
6.DO. Have fun here and contribute the the great game that is CoW.
7.Don't. Be racist, use excess profanity, be sexist, discriminatory.
8. Don't. go off topic, it generally leads to the thread being closed down.
9. DO. Be kind to even NEWER players and make them feel welcome.
10. Don't. Spam on threads, it's annoying for others.
11. DO.Respect the older members as they have been here longer than you and know the lay of the land.
12. DO. Have fun.
And before anybody says, I probably have done a few of these before.
