[QUOTE=fruxodaily;37256040]Everything isn't big anymore, thanks Lexic[/QUOTE] np, enjoy your lyrics [QUOTE=l l;37256542]The < in your old title is what was breaking things right?[/QUOTE] Actually it was the <font> that the < was supposed to be closing that broke everything.

lyrics are kinda catchy, sang it to the real song went pretty well

Is asking for ratings still bannable?

yes

If you have to ask for ratings, it probably wasnt a good post anyway

[QUOTE=for no reason;37265173]If you have to ask for ratings, it probably wasnt a good post anyway[/QUOTE] Well I only ask because somebody posted a really long rant about some complaints and finished it with "bring on the boxes, rate me dumb" or something to that effect, and I wasn't sure if it was even worth reporting or not.

Why is the refugee camp restricted to golds and mods when blues are allowed to view content of it?

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;37266566]Why is the refugee camp restricted to golds and mods when blues are allowed to view content of it?[/QUOTE] We are? Doesn't look like it. Do you mean like if we get banned? If that happens, you can only see your own thread. Edit: Nevermind. I misread. What I think you mean to refer to is the fact that a refugee camp thread exists for blue members to view, is that right?

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;37266708]Gold members are allowed to leak content it seems. [url]http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1127295[/url][/QUOTE] Yeah, I knew about that thread, I just wasn't sure that's what you were talking about originally.

Tales of the RC show the golden moments of the RC which can be enjoyed by blues, golds and mods alike. In general the RC is boring most times unless someone spams their shitty drawings or threats to get somewhere

Generally, how long does it take for GM to be activated? I bought it about 2 hours ago, wondering if I have done anything wrong :\

[QUOTE=nick_9_8;37267293]Generally, how long does it take for GM to be activated? I bought it about 2 hours ago, wondering if I have done anything wrong :\[/QUOTE] wait a while, I think garry does it manually just a warning, the gmf can be a harsh place, don't try to fit in straight away.

[QUOTE=fruxodaily;37267332]wait a while, I think garry does it manually just a warning, the gmf can be a harsh place, don't try to fit in straight away.[/QUOTE] Ah, ok. Cheers.

[QUOTE=fruxodaily;37267332]wait a while, I think garry does it manually just a warning, the gmf can be a harsh place, don't try to fit in straight away.[/QUOTE] Waiting a week and then trying to fit in won't work either. just a warning.

[QUOTE=SEKCobra;37268254]Waiting a week and then trying to fit in won't work either. just a warning.[/QUOTE] The way I understood it was: 1. Never try to fit in, you will not succeed. 2. Never try to stand out. 3. Don't expect people to laugh at your jokes, even if they are funny 4. Have a relaxed posting attitude, imagine that you're talking with a group of friends in person. In fact, I suppose that #4 pretty much covers it. If you walked into a group of people in real life and act like a dick, expecting them to accept you in to their group, you're going to be unpopular.

-snip- shouldnt write withjet lag

Like I said, you need to get the hang of the way people are, drop your internet persona and act like a normal person. Nowadays I tend to act in the GMF in exactly the same way as I do in person. I wander over to a conversation, listen to what people are saying, smile and nod at appropriate times for a little while and then wander away when I realise that I'm not saying anything and I'm just creepily lurking in the background.

If you actually need advice on how to post in the GMF, you probably don't want to be posting in the GMF.

pretty much what st0rmforce said, just imagine you're in a conversation and stay chill if you try to "fit in" then you're clearly doing something wrong also don't try to "act lik da gMF!!!" Yeah that's pretty much it, if you follow those rules you'll be fine.
