I feel like an elementary school teacher, but please try to not mock posters in this forum. The people who are posting here are generally new to either poker in general, or Full Tilt and may not understand the workings of a game or the site.

There are also plenty of people who post from countries where English isn't the primary language, so the fact that they made the effort to post in English should be welcomed.

Thank you for your cooperation.

I wasn't particularly new to poker when I started here, but its nice to get a foot in the door with regards to strategy and bankroll management, among other things, which I have to admit, i'd never given much thought to! I hope i'm not alone in that, I used to just play my cards, cash out once in a while or go broke and re-load! lol. It was nice to have experienced players taking time to patiently put me in the right direction.
The only thing I do disagree with, even in the Beginner section, is when lazy new posters, or just posters trying to add to their tally, put ridiculous threads asking questions that have been answered a million times if they only bothered to LOOK! Or make thread after thread asking one simple question after another instead of condensing it all. I could name a few names (leflytrap....). These guys are effectively spamming the forum! lol. It was worse at christmas when only forum members with 200+ posts could enter the forum freeroll, (I remember one guy making about 60-70 one line posts in a day!) But there are still a couple about!

1) your question got answered.
2) you posted the same question in multiple threads, thats considered spamming.

Hello all ,

I was playing in a tournament and a girl got sarcastic and said

she doubted that I would ever put a post in the forum. Well, as usual,

the mouthy one was wrong. I hope the rest of you have better control

over your tongues. I am a newbie, so what.

You don't have to spam to enter it, you just need to find the password in the forum. Start at the General Questions section.
