Title: Hey All
Post by: Virtualmatt on March 22, 2006, 04:22:44 pm

Just posting a message to say hey to everyone, as I just joined the forum.  I've recently been buying the parts to build a cocktail cabinet over the summer, so this seems like the place to be!

Hi.

Do yourself a favor and stay away from Everything Else from now on... we just suck the productivity right out of people around here! :)

Unless you don't care if you ever actually finish a machine.. then, welcome aboard.

Welcome aboard.....(http://www.stingraysmadness.com/photohosting/albums/userpics/10048/kaboose.gif)

There are a few stages in the BYOAC process

1] MAME virgin... like a kid with his first playboy. So excited about the discovery, he forgets to look at the whole picture before asking questions.
2] newbie... Reading everything, asking questions, all around excitement about the project.
3] accomplished newbie... feels good once he can actually answer another members question.
4] advanced newbee... learns to ask questions tactfully without doing any searching but can make it sound like he did.
5] contributing member... becomes very helpful answering questions and encouraging other members with their projects.
6] self proclaimed guru... answers all questions with "use teh search n00b" thinks this response gives him leet status.
7] asshat... pretty much got consumed by the topics in EE and put the project on the "I'll get it done eventually" status
8] reformed asshat... ignores EE to try to finish project, he becomes a very helpfull member for a while.
9] purgatory... uuummmm what.... "yeah , one day I'll get around to finishing the cabinet"


and a friendly reminder the higher the post count, they less they actually know  (http://www.stingraysmadness.com/photohosting/albums/userpics/10048/index.gif)

EE could use some new meat.  Sit down son and enjoy the show.  Also, the first rule about EE:  No one is to talk about EE.
