btw, lang in tagalog means "...only" (figuratively). how ironic we titled "PINOY LANG" & "LIMEY LANG" but it end up as one of the longest thread in BS.

that's so cool!!
i didn;t know that.
but definitely ironic that these threads ended up the longest and contained more than just the pinoys or limeys.
lol!



lang to americans is short for language.

i don't think it necessarily matters how long that member has been here, if it is in his personality to hate or flame someone, he'll do it simply because he has been here longer, if only by a month.

i think many members have just become suspicious because alts are created all the time to boost their own karma/rep and points. luckily, there are a lot of cool people still here who welcome new members and give them the benfit of the doubt (give them a chance) until they prove to be a "butthead". lol!

You are right with everything you said. Many users take karma and points far too seriously. To be honest with you, I don't think it is worth the time it takes to create another account - I have one account and that is enough. Whether I have 1 million points or a billion, seriously, who cares. I know: THEY do. LOL

Guess I just found the right words at the right time. I was trying to figure out early who I can talk nicely to and who I have to show I do not take any "bull****" (excuse me).
The problem with new members being hated on is just that a lot of members who joined months or years ago behave like bullies at school do, they pick on the weak ones, i.e. newbies.

not all....i know old-timers here who are great posters.

You probably recognized I know English as a second language: I am from Germany, soon to be 22 years old, am university student.
In a relationship for seven months now.

What about you?

Oh, I agree, sorry for the missunderstanding.

The reputation bar can easily be manipulated: you just need to donate points and your karma level increases.
