"We are each our own devil,



GRRRR I have this role play called Beelzebub's Gifts, and I think it's pretty awesome, (check it out if you want.)

Anyways, today I clicked on 'Subscribed Threads' to see if anyone had posted on Beelzebub's Gifts, and low and behold, someone had, but not someone who was role playing, o no, it was a n00b. A n00b by the name of iKewkie. I saw that said n00b had posted on my beautiful thread an ugly 'bump'.

At the sight of that my blood began to boil, and my vision turned red. I immediately deleted the sacrilegious post and sent the n00b a pm telling her to never bump on my thread again.

I told one of my friends about it, and his response was to kill, maim, and destroy the n00b.

This isn't the first time someone has defiled my role playing threads. I sometimes wish that we could make a site without n00bs. A site for only literate people. A site where no one bumps on role playing forums!

Gah! n00bs are so annoying, I just want to....GRRR! I can't even form words I'm so angry at them.

Normally I can be calm about their n00bishness. But now....I just RAWR!!!!!


I don't understand why n00bs are so n00bish. When I first started on gaia, I didn't post bump anywhere other then in the chatterbox. It scares me that n00bs are overflowing the chatterbox, and swarming the other forums.

We need to stop them, and stop them now!



Thank you for reading my little rant.




and we make this world our hell."

You've been for me what no other could be...

I actually heard of some people making a new, n00b-free Gaia. I can't wait to see it. N00bs need to be stopped, though! Ignoring them isn't likely to fix the problem, but it'll be better for us, anyway. ^.^


    Will I now grow old and forget all those?
Drown all sorrow, goodbye tomorrow.

Really, a n00b free Gaia? This is something I'd like to see. A message board, a community, yea, that's easy. I did that for a tradeschool I attended (the fact that it was designed to allow the students an area to blow off steam about their administrative injustices got it blocked from the school computers, and therefore inaccessible to about 2/3 of my users).

Another Gaia system, though? Complete with an avatar thing, items, and marketplace? That'd take a lot of work... I'd love to see it.

Later smile

Maybe a typing efficiency test, and you have to get a certain WPM speed to be allowed to join?

Eh, the ability to type quickly has no bearing on one's intelligence, spelling, or maturity. What we need is an institutionalised method of killing a person over the internet. Let the government deal with the cesspool that is the Chatterbox.

Yeah, WPM is irrelevant to intelligence. One can type a million "lol wuts" per minute. That doesn't make them intelligent. I think people going to join said n00b-free Gaia should have to write one-paragraph responses to intellectual questions and show the ability to use logic in a debate. Maybe we could even hold video conferences for debates on occasion? I think that'd be fun.

It sounds like a good idea, but unfortunately, it may never happen, since Gaia is virtually overrun by trolls, and supported by them as well.
