You mean like this one? What a buncha uptight noobs :p

I should have joined a tad sooner instead of lurking.

Edit: I would make the cut off date:)

Hey! I made it by 2 months!

(I've been registered that long? GAH!)

That said, we should just have a total non-posting day, just shut ATOT off for a day and make everyone post the next day about their ATOT-less experience.

We should have a special forum just for people you like.

I think that's a pretty dumb idea too, and even if I registered earlier, I'd think it was dumb too :)

Makes about as much sense as having a day where only ppl whose names start with "M" can post...

Besides, look at what some of the "old-timers" post anyway... it's not just newer ppl who post useless stuff and flamebaits.
