You have to make sweet love to a community member (me).
dude,
RUN
mrsadistic- already did that.
redrabbit- from you? sure thing.
Welcome! You should head to the forums and meet the people.
OH HAI!!!!!
I have seen you here commenting, so I'll spare all the usual stuff I say in a comment like this. You know the score.
BUT.............I will wish you a Great day!!! :)
In b4 shitstorm. seriously kid, hide this or heavily edit it to something with some content. You know, what type of games you play, what other things you like, and perhaps a view of the games industy in general. This, though, just won't cut it.
Welcome. I've got a selection of good things on sale stranger.
mikey- after spending to much time on the GS forums I need to learn how to navigate these forums.
mushman- thanks!
ryu- won't cut it for your elitist ass? yeah too bad, I'm not changing it just for you, get the fuck out.
vengefulpenor- any flamethrowers?
What are you buying?
Ryu is right, add some more stuff about your history with gameing what your favorite console/game ect. This isn't a blog.
Just because i have to
also cocks!
king3vbo- everything I can.
311grassroots- not a blog? yes, let me adhere to your standards and definitions of what's a blog. ever hear of... oh I don't know, maybe doing all that "what's my fav stuff" later on in another post or something? oh and your pic is cut off.
Go to "my blog", Go to "edit my profile" and start by using an avatar, and writing a profile.
Yeah, you really oughta read the whole thing about the difference between a blog and a forum post.
This really doesn't cut it and your attitude isn't helping you either.
@King
Goddammit, I really had stop myself from posting that line on this thread, like a hundred times, the best thing about that line is that you can make the merchant say it TONS of time in a minute, its funny as hell.
@graftkhun
Just ignore the people who are complaining about ya post, just ad more stuff over time, like you said yourself.
I personally think this is a okay intro, and seen MANY,MANY,MANY worse ones as these, the dreaded '1 line', *shudders*
If you want help with blogs, hit other Dtoiders up for help, including myself, just use the PM button, I'll be more than happy to help! :)
Fuck's sake
MUCH WORSE ONES, the......
dunno what's up with 'as these', maybe because its half two in England right now....
I seriously need to go to sleep, later guys
Welcome to Destructoid. I'm surprised that you have been lurking here and still don't know how to do a proper introduction blog.Look here, this will help with your blogging as well as from getting flamed.
Welcome to Dtoid!!
Oh and basically what people are saying is add more content to your blogs. Since this is your introduction post you should talk a bit about yourself and just explain basically why you are a gamer and what types of game you like. Throwing up a pic also helps to add a bit of colour to your post.
Of course, I'm no expert since I still haven't done my whole intro post shabang :P
listen, it's not our fault you failed miserably at making a first post. if you have been lurking here for so long you should know how people will react when you make a shitty post. calling a regular an elitist ass and telling them to "get the fuck out" shows how much of an ass YOU are.
Get the fuck out.
I fail to see what I said was elitist. I was only trying to help. Welcome to destructoid, we do things a little different. We've come to expect a sort of thing... you know CONTENT to cblogs, because the idea of a blog is to express yourself. And if you can't do that in a giant essay: fine! However, if you don't put any effort in it at all, then why have a blog? Look, I'm sorry if I came off as cold, but I was just trying to help, and you should really consider doing what I advised.
Jesus Christ! I still have to do an intro post!
redrabbit- you see, how is this a 'shitty post'? I honestly don't get it? how can a blog be bad? how can one even fail at making a first post? It doesn't make sense, well at least to me.
oh yeah, so just b/c ryu is a 'regular' makes him/her all special right? you see this is why I didn't join dtoid right away either, majority of people here are in fact 'elitist assholes'.
thanks you velt, mushman, celicacrazed and yojimbo though.
I did mine.
Theres a good pic of me on there.
I'm mowing the lawn in cutoffs.
It's a shitty post because it has NO content at all. Making a welcome post is fine, but HIDE IT UNTIL IT'S READY. You are pushing down other posts that are good. Also, how the fuck was Ryu being an elitist asshole? Don't join a site, post something with no substance and insult someone for trying to help you improve.
you fuckstick
This is why it was a shitty post.
Also, it doesn't matter if ryu is a regular or not. It was your off the wall, and totally out of line response that I see as very inappropriate.
The internet is not here to attack you. Yes, you will get criticized for certain things, but if you learn to take it the correct way, everyone wins. No more outbursts like that please, it just doesn't help you at all.
I'll be honest, when someone post a blog that has as little to it as yours, they get a lot of backlash from other community members. You should be thankful that all you got was:
"In b4 shitstorm. seriously kid, hide this or heavily edit it to something with some content. You know, what type of games you play, what other things you like, and perhaps a view of the games industy in general. This, though, just won't cut it."
Did you even read Ryu89's comment? It was an offer of advice, not an excuse for you to fly off the handle.
Seriously though, that intro post wouldn't cut it in the Meet and Greet section of the forum. Just add some more about yourself, fluff it up a bit.
redrabbit- what the hell is hide? I have no idea what you're talking about. pushing down posts? what? explain please. I think you mean that c-blog thing on the right side right? well I didn't know that this blog would go into it. I honestly did not know that any blog submitted enters that cache thing right away, I though you would have to select an option or something to have it go there.
Also, fine ryu wasn't being an elitist asshole, but I didn't know dtoid had this whole "mandatory blog length" crap or whatever. I thought that one could just post whatever the hell one feels like in there blog. and no need for insults either, I don't even know what a fuckstick is.
nukkajdav- I see that guide now, sorry I missed it before. I did go to the 'newbie' thread and it was just an intro thing there. In response to ryu, I thought he/she was being 'off the wall' initially. to me, it was insulting. I thought this blog was harmless, hell I didn't even expect any comments at all.
You suck, hard.
If you think being a Ninja's hard work, try being a mom.
while I was typing it seems I missed comments. ok guys/gals, I apologize, I'll admit, I never ventured into the forums/blogs here at dtoid. I remained on the front page ever since I started coming here. All this 'nessecary content' stuff is different indeed and I had no idea, it seems dtoid frontpage articles atmosphere =/= blog atmosphere here.
@grafkhun
Its understandable, just no more hostility and everything is gonna be super duper.
Anyway, sorry for the notsogreat introduction to the dtoid community. Trust me, you'll get past this, just be active, contribute, etc. and everything will be great for you.
I was also a lurker here, for about two years from 16 years of age to 18, and ever since I joined I've been slowly integrating myself into the community and I feel right at home here. Destructoid is fucking amazing for its community, no other video game blog is like this one.
God I kinda had a heartfelt moment there...*embarassment*
Anyway, welcome.
nukka- going from lurker to member never goes so well xD ok I filled out the about me seciton a little, I'll add more later for sure. But yeah, I'll stick around, choppy introductions are better than peaceful ones right?
that should help you out, good luck on your next post. :)
redrabbit- good god my eyes have failed me, how on earth did I miss that? Anyways, yeah...
Are we all friends now? :D
Oh, you guys :)
Welcome to Dtoid, I see you've been broken in!
this blog is broken.
everyone fix it.
oh wait...you say you don't like sequals....
ARE YOU WORKING FOR TREASURE!?!?!?!?
Aww, I missed the noob rape.
Protip: Mushmans awesome. Make them your friend and you've already won no matter what anyone else says.
...And that is all I have to say.
=o
Hi, welcome and all that junk!
Welcome to Destructoid. Enjoy the rape.
Just remember when posting a blog that its pushing someone else off the front page, that's why we get so annoyed when blogs with no real content or worth pop up like this one.
When it comes to asking questions about how to do something like setting an avatar, either ask in the forums, add the question to a more complete blog post or send a PM to an existing member. We're mostly friendly here and are more than willing to help out the newbies who aren't looking for a flamewar.
HELLO THERE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
HELLO THERE LADIES AND GENTS
ARE YOU READY TO ROCK
ARE YOU READY TO ROCK
shinoni- I wish.
njsykora- you see, I didn't know that this blog would auto enter that front page cache thing, I had no intent to push anyone's blog off the page.
Let me put it in a nutshell.
