How to survive here?

Noob here. Any tips to survive here for awhile?

Keep your head down and always wear body armor.

Jokes aside though, just be friendly, don't take offense before you're sure offense was meant (some of our nicest members have weird senses of humour =p), and just keep posting until you feel comfortable.

Welcome to Gamespot =D

@korvus: Thanks. :)

Welcome!

Wear armor TC. Korvus here is especially trigger happy against newbies and noobs. We used to have a river next to OT, but after Korvus came around it turned red thanks to all the blood spill... So now we put it in pipes instead.

Jokes aside (just copying Korvus again :P) Don't be a dick.. And sarcasm/irony is difficult to get across written messages.

@horgen: In my defense, it's not my fault newbs bleed so much...

Well it doesn't help that you trick them into taking blood thinning medications before you start working on them.

Gimmie all your gold.

Be friendly and have fun.

It's easy. Be yourself, this place isn't as brutal as it used to be.

Keep your hands to yourself.

lol

Just post stupid topics :P.

Aye. If you're doing both these things then you'll have no problem sticking around here.

@ecchi welcome!

Gota learn how to use that keyboard.

Are you friendly by nature or you fake it?

@nigeriaforlife:

Which do you think?

I'm new here and the people are seemingly friendly and intelligent.

Just be yourself and relax.

This isn't high school, lol.

Simple really, be nice and people will like you also take a trip to system wars sort of like a baptism of fire.

*Looks at username*

ಠ_ಠ

Good luck!

Just be yourself, talk to use, be sure to go visit Roll Call outside of OT so we can get to know you more and well, just post anything that you see a thread that's cool. Need anything, I'll be here.

Thanks DaVillain.

@davillain-: Step 1, follow Davillain's instructions. Step 2, avoid Davillain =P

Kidding, guy's awesome =D

Step 1, follow Davillain's instructions. Step 2, avoid Davillain ( mix with DaVillain, one of the most nicest user on OT ),Step 3, avoid upsetting Korvus / other mods of OT or its Hammer time =P

Now its complete TC :)

@indzman: I don't know why people think I'm so bad...I'm the friendliest guy around and don't you dare disagreeing or I'll ban your ass!

*Goes into Hiding*

Insult mods.

Welcome to the forums!

Hmm...i see you have a reason to be here.

I am trying to figure that out, myself.

Quality post

*Writes Gamerno6666's name on the little black book*

Nyyyyyyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuuu. I'll be a good boy from now on. :D

*Writes "possible false alarm" in front of his last entry*

How am I suppose to know?

Don't try to outlive your name. Stick to Ecchi, if you're ever caught posting hentai: BANNED.

Don't drop the virtual soap

Reply to the daily blog postings, if you look like a movies star thats a plus, lol .. J/k Welcome !

if entering system wars make sure to bring a flame shield, a gum shield and a towel. also keep an eye out for troll bait....its yummy ^_^.

And also, watch out for charizard1605, he's trouble and the undisputed SW champion.

Be careful not to post offensive stuff. I got banned from many forums in my younger days for being too liberal with my use of language.

Pay respect to a devout JRPG lover you infidel.

@indzman: wow, this is confusing.

If you voice your opinions, always be ready that either someone will highly disagree with you or they manage to read it wrong and/or thinks there are meaning between lines and will then argue with you about those "meanings you have"

In general sense, just be ready that no matter what you write, someone with argue with you over it.

dont have original personal opinions.

dont think that you can have freedom of speech.

what ever the issue is, if you are not a leftist liberal hipster peace and love feminist while also being pro America and Israel, then you risk getting banned.

learn what mods like and suck up to them, if you know a mod is pro this thing, then you only have two options; post positive things about it or dont post cuz them mods will delete your post and banned you.

take it from me, I've been banned like 7 times.

Don't go to System Wars.

@ecchi: Don't take offense to people saying shit on the internet or you're already dead... in the end we're all just sitting behind screens typing away crap that doesn't amount to much because we have nothing better to do.
