Title: Posting and you

I think everyone will get a laugh or two out of this, and maybe learn something, too! (myself included)

Enjoy!

Brilliant brilliant brilliant.  Not sure what the steam forums are, but the movie could easier apply here.  Or any forum,  for that matter.

Steam being the program you use to play HL, CS etc and the forums being the home for too many CS players :P

I love it!

It should be required watching for all n00bs from now on.

I've also been thinking we should do something like this:

On the signup page, have a little blurb of text that says, "READ THIS FIRST BEFORE FILLING IN THE FORM"Ã,  There would be a little statement saying "The answer to question 12 is 'Iggy Biggy Baba'".Ã,  Then question 12 would be something obvious like, "What does AGS stand for?"Ã,  If they don't put Iggy Biggy Baba then they obviously didn't read the 'READ FIRST' part.

APPLICATION DENIED SUCKER!!

Ah but that would only make us more frustrated when people inevitably make mistakes, annoying posts, and repetitive dribble. 

And furthermore might deter some awesome (perhaps lazy) people who would otherwise become AGSers.

Yeah, I was thinking that too.

I used to close to the door to my office (so I could play my music louder) and then people would just open the door and come in without knocking.Ã,  This drove me crazy.Ã,  So I put a sign on the door saying "Knock First!!".Ã,  Well they still came in without knocking and now that the sign was there it was 10 times worse!
