Good rule of thumb for noobs: If they instantly jump headfirst into the hangout, bringing with them shitty english and 4chan memes, posting nonstop, they get mocked and made fun of. See: Strelok. If they are quiet and reserved, write well, and move into the community gradually, nobody bats an eye. See: Tea.
Then there are fucking retards who combine the worst of both worlds, diving in headfirst, acting like an idiot, and striving to get as much attention as possible. Lee, you are this third type.
*ahem*
Lurk moar, noob.
As I was walking down the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today.
I wish, I wish he'd go away.
