Please read at least this post before posting in this thread. This is meant for entertainment (and potential educational) purposes. And for heaven's sake, PLEASE don't explain what a noob and a newb is. This thread does that already.

What is a Noob? - The documentary

updated tommorrow


Noobs: Nu*bs. (adj) (n)
Noob is a word derived from chatish gaming jargon depicting someone who is new to something or inexperienced. Other forms of the word include "Newb", "Noobie", "Newbie", or "Loser-who-thinks-they-are-cool", while meanings of the variations may vary slightly, the differences are explained clearly within this documentary. The noob is a strange species of Gaian who is usually readily spotable because of the torn up, raged peasant clothes, or the commonly and overly worn pants with flame along the edges. Although the definitions here can clearly fit those of a Newb and a Noob, it may be up to you and proper judgement to decide if a person should be labled with either of these.

Where can this noob be found you ask? That is the most frightening thing. They can be found anywhere from General Discussion, to Avatar Talk, to Entertainment, to your own nightmares, and if your unlucky enough, maybe even within your own home! The best thing to do would be to keep a sharp eye out for the dastardly critters. Here, we provide several tips on how to recognize one of these oddities.

Common signs of a noob include but are not limited to...
-Wearing Peasant clothes or Flame clothes and think they are cool singularly because of it
-Inceasant begging for gold
-Begging for mod status upon joining the site (or guild)
-Posting of threads stating "Im new"
-Posting threads that have nothing to do with the overall forum, (spamming the AT, ED, GD forums etc.)
-Bumping a thread in Q&F
-Easily Taking offense to flames/critism/suggestions.
-Flaming, rating low, critisizing, etc. without explaining what is wrong and/or how to improve.
-Attempting to make unrealistic profits (selling cheap items for 30,000,000, trying to make 30k profit in lotto, etc.)
-God modding in RPs
-Trying to convice people that they have something bigger and better than others that can not be proved in any way online without breach of the Gaian ToS. (skills, RL items, boobs, other bodily parts, etc.)
-Unrealistic Bragging. i.e. "We'll, i've been on Gaia since 2001!"
-Making posts stating that they can get rares for bumping
-->believing those posts
-Making scams, thinking they wont get caught
-->similarly falling for scams
-Making posts begging for something (girlfriend/boyfriend, money, friends, sex, etc.)
-Not understanding that people make typos and grammatical erros often in a forum/chat client.
-Posts something asking a question without reading the FAQs or sticky threads.
-Posting unrealistcally long posts with the thought of getting more gold because of it.
-Not knowing what a noob is
-improper chatspeak
-->speaks in what they consider to be 1337 with and unspeakable amount of typos making you unsure if they meant to type like that or not.
*aherm* for example: OMG, ur //3r1||g flame apnts! Your SuX0rz! im 1337!!11!!!!!11!11one one!!!1

Many people, when encountering one of these strange creatures, are confused, awed, and many times frightened.
What are we supposed to do with these little monsters when encountered? Well, there are several options which include...
-Run like your being chased by a cheetah
-Flame them. Attention - As this method is against the ToS, it is strongly suggested that you do not participate in it as it has the potential to get you banned, but it is a workable method none-the-less.
-Back away slowly
-Back away quickly
-Ignore them
-Find a different thread yourself
-Grab a large heavy hunting net, gut the creature, and hang its head on your wall as a trophy.

Those of you who have a difficult time dealing with these oddities, may feel many strange side effects such as...
-Anger
-Diarrhea
-Nausea
-Constipation
-Hatred
-Annoyance
-Nightmares
-The desire to grab a large heavy hunting net, gut the creature, and hang its head on your wall as a trophy.

If there are anymore questions involving the species known as "Noobius-Annoyance-Etceterous", or the 'Noob' as it is more commonly known as, you can purchase a copy of my book entitled, "The missing link: May it ever stay missing"

One concern many researchers have faced is the difference between a Noob and a Newb.
Please do not confuse the species of "Noob" too much with the "Newb". A Noob is what has been previously described, and as a Newb is somewhat similar at times, they quickly learn from thier errors and because of previous experience on this strange thing called the internet, they are quite skilled in a chat enviornment and do not bring shame to themselves or those around them as the "Noob". These "Newbs" do not have anything to be ashamed of as they are learning a new enviornment and adjusting. The key word within that is 'adjusting', depicting that they are currently in the act of improving. Unfortunatly, the nOOb seems to be in a sad state that is beyond help.

One scientist stated...
Scientist Pineapple
*AHEM* "n00bs" are the bad kind of new-comers, the ones he is defining. we werent all "n00bs". but we were "newbies"


There are several things that many people may confuse between the Noob and the Newb. Many of these things are as follows...
-Flame clothes or peasant clothes do not make you a noob, but bragging that you are awesome or you think your avatar is the best singularly because you are wearing an outfit that consists of only these items, then you are deemed a creature, noob.
-Not having gold does not make you a noob. Many old, talented, and skilled Gaians do not have much gold. It would be a mistake to think someone is a Noob because of thier financial status.
-Not wearing expensive items does not make someone a Noob. Many people dress how they think looks good. Often this does not include expensive items.
-Noobism is based largely on behavior, not monetary value.
-Noobs are not always new, where as Newbs are. The creatures known as noobs, seem to be stuck forever in thier new phase, even though they may have existed much longer than the Newbs who are no longer classified as Newbs.
-Again, a primary characteristic that sets the Noob aside from the Newb, is that the Noob is unwilling to learn and improve themselves in society.
-It is known that many Newbs make the mistakes of Noobs, but as stated, the Newb will learn from its mistakes and will not, or at least try not to make them again. It is the Noob who is consistent, predictable, and annoying.

The Predator of a n00b

A question that was brought up once, got us all thinking (and it hurt bad!)...

There is one species of creature that is closely related to the noob, but unfortunatly, it does not readily reveal itself until it is too late for the poor lowly noob. This creature may simply be known as the predator of the noob.
What exactly is the predator of a noob?
This is currently in research by a team of highly specialized, and well armed (for good reason) militants... er... scientists and is headed by Proffesor Kai, PhD. After their field research is complete, then we will be posting our results here. At this time, we are currently unsure of how to explain this oddity in itself, but so far, our research has shown great promise.

One of our researchers have brought us back some results concerning the promiscuous behavior of this predator...
Proffessor Kai Phd.
predators like moderatius cannibalis who has been informed by Gaianius simius the normal average form of gaian. Moderatius cannibalis quickly strikes the noob with great ferocity being the at the top of the food chain they can strike fear into the noob and instruct them in the proper ways of gaia or devour them is neccasary. And it sort of goes on like that.

It does appear that the predator, moderatius-cannibalis is not the only predator of the noobius-annoyance-ecterous. It does appear that it is heavily assisted by its co hunters, the gaianius-simius.

More from our same proffessor...
Proffessor Kai PhD.
Moderatius Cannibalis are by far the top predator of noobs. However many of you are wondering about gaianius simius well for those who must know these unusual creatures come in many different forms but i'll stick to the basics. Gaianius simius can be very nice to others of it's own kind however like all species there are exceptions to that rule and to newbies who eventually grow into gaianius simius. However when gaianius simius meets a noob the groups reaction can result in wide spread attacking of the noob. In this situation the noob either retreats or contiues to fight a battle it can't win until a moderatius cannibalis is called by one of the smarter gaianius simius group members. And that raps up my findings so far.


Concerning the noob who seems to take joy in "Bumping for rares", and what to do with them, Proffessor Kai states...
Proffessor Kai
Noobius bumpus are similar to ordinary noobs but have a slighty lower brain capacity for bumping. When a prize for the most bumps is offered these very foolish creatures will instantly assume if they put tons of bumps on one post they will win but they can also stretch the pages of a thread to ennoying proportion. In this process they risk being flamed to death. When encountering this creature it is best to warn them and if they continue ignore them and fetch a mod to devour the noob quickly.



The Noob Poacher
The creature, whom we will deem the Noob Hunter, or more accuratly, the noob poacher seems to rarely appear in public until it is ready to strike. It is a master of camoflauge and deception, but once it strikes, it creates a tremendously bloody mess that is most beautiful to watch. Common signs of a noob hunter include...
-Flaming and consistent explanations of "NOOB!" with much finger pointing.
-Guidance towards other sections of the forum, particularly, Welcome to Gaia.
-Hostilities towards Noobs, usually exhibited around other Noob hunters.
-Violent lashings and lynchings.
-Mockery of noobs.

It is quite common to see these noob hunters hunt in packs and stick together in defensible and powerful groups. Because of this, it is usually best to not anger the volatile noob hunter. Results generally turn to be devastating, whether the victim be a noob, or not.


The Noob Tamer
Keep in mind...
Not all Noob hunters are bad. Many hunt these noobs and properly... educate them and attempt to convert them from thier noobish ways. Many of these noob hunters have been seen to be very friendly and kind while others hunt for blood. These hunters we shall deem "Noob Tamers"

These noob hunters are not hostile and tend to look down on the viscious noob hunter. Common signs of this noob hunter include...
-Kind directing to the welcome to Gaia forum after some proper education.
-Reassuringly telling the noob not to listen to the hostile noob hunter
-Flaming of hostile noob hunters
-Participation in "Adopt a newb/noob" programs
-Kind asking telling to stop doing what they are doing
-Secretly reporting to a mod

Please bear with us that we do not look down on any of these activities. We are not stating anything as negative, but simply stating the facts. Please take no offense if you have done anything of any nature stated within here, as even the researchers themselves who put together this documentary are guilty of many things stated within here.

Demon_Dude73
The n00b converter- the n00b converter is a cross between a n00b poacher and a n00b tamer. the converter or "murderer of n00bs if they dont act proper(M.O.N.I.T.D.A.P)" tactics are this this, they can go about in two ways flame the "n00b" until there burnt to a crisp and then try to teach the ways of acting proper, or they can try to get the "n00b" to convert right away and if it doesnt work flame them beyond belief or go to a moderatius cannibalis so the creature may be delt with i will report more of my findings in due time

Currently, we are happily accepting all helping hands with the research of anything concernign the strange creature of the noob, and its symbiotes.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
A field test to bring out these Noob hunters from hiding was conducted by our Ruroni K.
Rouroni K.
My first report in a while...
Anyway, I did a field test. I posted a very convincing "I want a gf" thread and lured many predators in. It seems that the rumors about how they hide in wait until they find prey to strike is true. I also learned that when they gather in large numbers, their main plan of attack is to circle the helpless noob so it can't escape and attack from all sides, vicously tearing at the creature until none is left to oppose them, at which time they will go back into hiding to wait for more prey. Some will venture out a few extra minutes to check for scraps to tear at. It also seems that when noobius-annoyance-etceterous see one another being attacked, they will panic and flee but contact the victim without the predators knowing and reveal their true nature. Yes, someone PMed me saying they'd be my gf. The thread is here.

It appears the test was very successful and made him look like a complete and utter noob. LOL, we love you anyways Ruroni blaugh heart Post and show your support! xp

Species of n00bs
and other startling discoveries.

There are several Types of n00bs and classifications. We have several independant researchers who are gathering information on such creatures and we will briefly explain them to you here.

Please keep in mind, that these here that are quoted are not Sange's writtings. If you have a problem with them, please talk to the person who wrote it. If you find them offensive in any way or derogatory, then you are welcome to let me know, but I will not change it without the OK of the person who wrote it. Sange is not liable for what is said that is in quotes

SmoothCriminal
I'm not sure of the scientific term, as this n00b is so far undocumented, but I simply refer to it as the "Double Edged Noob".
This type of n00b is a strange oddity, and a very annoying one. It is the rogue of noobs. It shows all the common signs of a traditional n00b, but is also against its fellows n00bs. It usually tries to act like a real member, by flaming other people labeled as n00bs, and tells them to go to the gaian welcome page, despite the fact that this kind of n00b hasn't even seen it themselves. They can be very annoying, attempting to side with anti-noobs, while annoying the anti-noob at the same time. A very rare, yet disgusting and annoying creature. It will not only haunt your nightmares, but even you day. . .mares.


JSE
The Female species of Noobius-Annoyance-Etceterous can be as follows,
-Much like the male, they will either be in (only) peasants or, finding it sexier, nothing at all.
After being on with in a week, they will normally been seen wearing
-Cast away clothing
-Regular stockings
-Goth boots
->Or maybe possibly just a simple dress some where under 1000 gold.
I mention quite a few things from the Barton Boutique not only because of many of its low prices but also because I've studied my share of n00bs that have never found the rest of the map.
You will find many of our Female specimens attempting to get Gaians of the male gender by any means. Habits most likely caused by previous, less literate chat districts where finding a boy friend was a very customary ritual to perform.
They will rarely judge by looks or clothing which, in a way could be a plus to their low brain capacity.
A pattern in characteristics many of the Female Noobius-Annoyance-Etceterous display is a lack of humor. They cease to find any amusement what so ever in what most would find very tasteful, funny jokes yet they still manage to find a way to overuse the term LOL (Laugh out Loud).


NinjaKai
New research has led to the discovery of a virus within the noobs genetic structure that makes them greedy. Observations of the behaviour exibited by the infected noob shows that they bid pathtically low amounts for very high priced items and will begin to argue how it's not fair or will begin to moan and beg them to sell them the item. Most starteling is that this virus has been passed onto a fair portion of the gaia public via activating the "Greed" gene present in many gaians making them stupid bidding on items for far less than what their worth. One of the most common is a these infected gaians wanting a dark cape for 8-10k hense the name "Greed" gene. The infection doesn't spread to the more polite and reasonable gaians due to an natural immunity to this virus and a strong sense of reason. The information of this report was not easy to obtain after encountering many of these infected gaians and noobs. Forunately there is an antivirus in development. More news on this at a later date.

Here's my report on the Gaianus obsessedus

The Gaianus obsessedus is pecular species, constantly on the move in the world of Gaia.They tend to be mistaken with n00bs at times, but on the oppisate time scale. Though limited study has been done on this species, some information is known. They live in packs and tend to think that they are supperior than others, often having hundreds of posts a day and on for weeks at a time before logging off. These creatures tend to have ample amounts of 'real items' or items you recieve in envelopes by giving to the Gaian government. These creatures tend to have many items, wearing no less than 25 at a time. They tend to veiw others on the amount and monetary value of the items on others, and look down on those with less than 20. With over crowded heads, they tend to over-flame noobs with no intend on correcting them and over critisize any misstakes, from typos to misspellings.

The Gaianus obsessedus is a mysterious species and needs more studying. I will report as I find more information.


dothackers
The species Nubious-Pronuncious is, by far, one of the most common of the Nubious family. Lacking the brain compacity to write properly, this species tends to write either in all capitals, mixed capitals, or abreviations that no one can understand. Sentences like "I RoXoRz!!!! scream 3nodding whee scream domokun " Will be used with this species. Like all other Nubious species, they live to annoy and will respond to your anger at their annoying posts with sentences like "I DoNt'z CAREZ xd domokun !!!!! eek !! domokun !!!!one uno !!!eleven!". Although, annoying, they have the knowledge to to understand and make their own language. If you ever run into a Nubious-Pronuncious please try to walk away (very quickly).


The Templar

1: The Noobious-Quotus. Commonly seen in ED and GD, quoting the first, somtimes really long post, just to say a few words, or, sometimes just nothing. Ignoring this n00b is usually the best course of action as they just seem to quote and then move on, meaning any form of attack will be useless. Harmless and yet annoying at the same time.

2: The Noobius-Non-Readus. One of the more common Noobius types. Sadly. They either, A: Ignore the first post and respond to the Thread Name, or B: Reads the first post, miss the meaning, and flame/post irrelevant things, or, lastly, C: Reads the first post, ignore all otherposts, goes into the 500+ pages long thread and don't bother squat with what has allready been said. Course of action: Ignore and take pills for the headache.

Yes, unfortunantly this thread becomes riddled with option 2 sweatdrop

Ridikulous

The Noobius Stalkerus is an extremely unfortunate species that
stalks an older/richer/nice/smart Citizens of gaia so that the stalker
may get gold or an item. ALthough this rarely ever happens the
noobius stalkerus still follows through with the hunt for gold and
items. To get rid of these terrible fiends I've listed some remedies
*Run at them with stakes yelling "Go Awaaay and never come back!"
*Run at them saying hings that should not be said aloud
*Threaten to kill them
*Run and Hide

This is a terrible virus caught by newbies who dont want to
grow into older/richer/nicer/smarter gaian citizens. Please
avoid these gaians at all costs!

Thanks for your time!

"The 1337" n00b:
Very unresponsible animals. They use most of their time in GAIA trying to figure out new ways of typing "Hello", "Whats up?" or simply "Hows your mom's cookies crackin' ?"
A close encounter with one of these beasts have lead me to suspicion. I have tagged him k4k45h1, respecting his name in the funny language of 1337.
Though encountered mostly singularly, these animals tend to find other of their same kind, and once found, they either try to find a well-fit mate or some other creature talking their own language. I stalked k4k45h1's posts for some days now, following his every move. And it seems that the animal I have tagged is one looking for romance and not for friends. k4k45h1 also seems to only be a newborn, with only a roundup of 60 posts! It is only a theory, that this "1337" species feels loneliness due to their language, but I am not thoroughly sure about this yet. It seems that it also will talk the comon n00b language if it finds a well-fitting mate of another ethnic background. yet jsut like the normal breed, this breed is just as bad at spelling, writing and judging. I must research deeper into this, if you want certainty. This animals life may be a dangerous one, but if I must, I shall stalk it until it dies."


Saberwyn

As I am sure you are aware, a genetic anomaly has recently appeared in all noob/newb-type creatures. This prevents them from communicating with, or being communicated to, by most conventional means, beyond the initial shout-out (first post). They still manage to make their presence felt, but this defect renders them inpenetrable to any further communication, whether attack or assistance.


Rouroni K.
I do believe that I have found a new species of n00b. I also believe we will soon have a species name for those who do everything n00bish listed on the first page. But on to the point.

noobius spammus: This noob points very stupid, pointless, and utterly annoying messages, usually to easily gain gold. This is, of course, because they don't know how slowly gold comes. They are sometimes hybrids of the above species and the "l337" noob. They spend most or all of their time on Gaia spamming, and are not to be approached without caution. Thy are mentally unstable, which usually leads to angered rampages set off by the smallest negative post.

Hybrids: This is the name for a noob who can be more than one kind of noob at a time. Usually, these combinations include the "l337" noob. The most common hybrid is that of the "l337" noob and the noobius desperatus. If you haven't seen my report on the noobius desperatus, it is basically a noob who is active in having/wanting a Gaian gf/bf. Hybrids are mostly either dangerous or too stupid to be. However, they are a force to be reckoned with when angered.

This is the conclusion of my report.


gothchix2000
I have found a new kind of n00b...
the Nubious-Temperous ... a spontanious little creature that i very sensitive to flaming. They are most common spouting lines like " :: Chases down and stabs with pitchfork :: " and " :: Kills in a rage !! scream scream scream :: " This one is also commonly a Hybrid with the Nubious-Pronuncious, which turns out with nasty little posts like " :: stbs wth rustyz kiFe !! scream domokun xp scream !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:: " These n00bs are uncommon but annoying none the less. There is still progressive reasearch about the Nubious-Temperous in progress.




A professional investigator of crimes due to n00bish activity reported:
CSI_Chick
Through conclusive studies of these "n00bs" it has come to my attention that they all posess a phychological need to annoy. I also understand that some types of these "n00bs" eat their young. Please proceed with caution as they enjoy what they call "flaming" and bugging the prominents. If you come across a "n00b" I would advise you to stay away from them. They might inject you with a chemical called "syron." "Syron" is a toxic chemical that causes your brain activity to lessen and perminent damage is possible.

Symptoms of the "Syron" are:
Headache
Feeling as you must annoy
Feeling you have to ignore the stickies
Posting dumb noncence
Running around thinking you are a monkey
Nausia
Vommiting
and Death

Please seek help immediately if you feel any of these symptoms. Thank you and that concludes my report

*Disclaimer thingy (for lack of better name) - it is well known that there are some things that may conflict with other peoples ideas. As such, some definitions may be deemed inaccurate. With that being the case, this documentary is very liable to change at times due to input of all valued Gaians. All suggestions for improvement can be posted in this thread and pmed to Sange. The goal of this thread is not to offend, but to largely entertain and with that, I am willing to edit offensive content to that which may be more accurate. And please, we all know that flaming doesn't truly get us anywhere, and I gaurantee, you will have a lot less fun than normal by flaming me, so please dont try. I just find it annoying to break your arguments like the frail spine of a Noob.*

About this thread

This is the thread explaining what a noob is, and what the difference between the 'N', double 'O', 'B' is compared to the 'N', 'E', 'W', 'B'.
This thread is being relocated to this position because I, Sange, the creater and owner of this thread is leaving Gaia for an extended period of time. Because of this, I am turning the ownership of this thread. This thread, although owned by Sange, is now moved and reconstructed to be placed under the care of three whom i deem capable of handling things as I have.
Caretakers of the thread are...
Kratos Aurion
Kai Hyugiha
Departed Memories
YukiNoTenshi

I Sange give rights of this thread to those whom i have listed as long as the thread is kept within the same structure and content as the original threads, to which, links can be located within the history of this thread. These four, and only these four have access to the account Thenoobproffessor, which has been and will be used for the maintaining of this thread.

Because of the current construction of the thread, many many of those who have read this, have been newbs, people who are new to Gaia, nothing else, and i have recieved frequent PMs from these newbs thanking me for explaining just exactly what a noob is and that its not the same as a newb and they were thankful for telling them basically, the acceptable ettiquette on Gaia. Newbs, as far as anyone knows, have not been offended and i hope never will be by what is stated here.

Please do NOT ask to be a caretaker of this thread. Your request is garunteed to be denied. If the four who currently are running things need someone else, for whatever reason, as if they are leaving gaia or something, then i will leave it up to thier combined discretion as to who they should choose. If needed, they can contact a mod and have that mod edit this post and add that person into here (or remove if necesarry, but i hope it wont be), but ONLY the combined agreement of the current caretakers have the authority to grant stewardship over this thread. They will choose. nobody applies.

History of the thread

This is the first home of this documentary which was initially moved because more than just 3 posts were needed for the expansion of the thread.
http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pt=1101747271&p=212039678#212039678
I initially wrote the thread after reading something asking about stereotypes on Gaia. I was about to insert a very long explanation on noobs and newbs and realized that i could make my own thread on the thing. The thread started very small and even somewhat innaccurate. After much time, I recieved a very large amount of feedback and much critisism (although not all constructive) and the thread evolved and i created it to be what it is now. After a while, people kept sending me feedback and with what i liked, i wanted to add more onto the thread. I realized i needed more than three posts to do so and moved the thread to its recent home.

The recent home of this thread was located here. You can view the size, responses, visitors, etc of this thread here. Please don't post here as this thread is hopefully no longer active.
http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4792341&start=0

As far as the structure of the thread, the first (or second in this case) is the major bulk of it and the heart. everything else is merely an appendage, although it does tie in quite well.

After that thread, time went by quite well and me, being the religious Sange that i am, decided to go on a mission for my Church, that being the LDS faith. Because of this, i did not want the thread to die and so i have turned the thread over to four of the regular visitors who i haved deemed trustworthy enough to be able to care for it. This is where the thread now lies. For those interested, i have been called to serve in the Charlston, West Virginia, USA mission, and will leave/have left on June 15, 2005.

Construction of the Thread

As stated, this thread was inspired by another thread talking about sterotypes of Gaia where i thought i could make my own reasonable thread on Noobs and Newbs. When i first made the thread, many people enjoyed it, but there were many discrepencies. At this time, the thread was not large at all and only consisted of the one post, the heart of the thread. There were errors, misunderstandings, and some things left out that probably should have been in there. Because of this, some people were upset and did not like how i put things. Through thier being upset and constructive critisism (some of which was NOT meant to be constructive, but was anyways) i was able to iron out the wrinkles and eliminate discrepencies within the thread to make it enjoyable for everyone and not come accross as offensive. The input of countless Gaian's and thier wonderful flames has shaped and molded this thread to what you see now before you.


Message to the caretakers
I would like to thank those who have helped with this thread and especially those four who will be taking care of things. I have chosen four of you because i was unsure if one would be able to take care of things well, although i know its not a difficult job. I know that sometimes someone is not able to get on regularly, or that someone may be leaving Gaia themselves and if i leave only one person, then the thread will most likely not be amended or updated as needed. I need four people as back up for each other and to also act as advisors for the others if needed. Please, if anything is done to the thread or the account you have been given charge over, let the others be aware of it. If i thought that there would be problems, then i would not have done things this way and instead would have just let the thread die rather than have trouble, but i have complete faith that this thread and its glory will live on though those i have turned it over to. if there are problems, i hope that a mod or someone will be able to resolve the issue. I hope that the four of you can cooperate and work well together with no problems.

Thank you very much, with my deepest gratitude,
heart Sange
