    Okay, so there are no stupid questions, just stupid people. My concern is *me*. I do not wish to be a trouble-maker, but I can understand if I am perceived as a potential trouble-maker. Is trouble-maker hyphenated?

    My attention to this board has grown lately; enough for me to register, though I am not yet sure which fora will become my vacation homes. I'm here from TK and it would be silly to even pretend that it was not the recent drama that has sparked my interest.

    I want to know if participating in the Help Desk threads on the topic will get me banned for being a troll. I have no intention of flaming or irritating anybody, in fact I make a piss-poor troll. I read the faq and it states:

    I have no intention of breaking rule three, but I know at TBBS if you start posting in QSF right away you run the risk of being perma'd. Is that the case here?

    I will accept answers provided by staff members. As always, other WF commentary is also welcome.

    Only if you flame and spam. :shrug:

    You're free to post in any forum you want as long as you follow the rules.

    I wouldn't worry about it. There's plenty of stupidity in some of the other threads.

    I was looking for the retard smiley but I am overwhelmed. I'll choose this one instead.:charge:
    How many posts do I need to have before I can have a normal-sized avatar?

    Marso's advice:

    Don't be a pussy. Get in the red room and say what you really think. Do the same in the other forums, but be polite. You'll be fine. This is wordforge. It's for the free.

    Thanks for the advice, I think I can manage to stay polite even in the Red Room.

    You don't have to be polite in the red room. Just the other rooms.
