Posted: Fri Dec 01, 2006 6:44 pm Post subject: suggestion for the new comers and us
I think it would be a great Idea to have some sort of FAQ set up for Heroes.. so some of us don't keep repeating over and over certain questions..
I know its hard for a newbie to come on a forum, if they have just started watching a show and the majority of the people on the forum is a good few months/episodes or years ahead.
Id like to suggest a Newbie corner, and a simple FAQ of Heroes. so people can read before posting a question that is not current with the show that is being seen.
ok would this be about the forums too? or just heores as a general? well if its about thsi forum also i would like to ask......how do you scartch the scratch cards? lol
Great suggestion! There is a FAQ sent to every new board member via PM, which reads as so:
Quote:
Hi there [username]! You are the [user_id]th member to join, and we're glad to have you as part of the largest and fastest growing Heroes community on the internet.
ATTENTION WEBMASTERS: If you have a blog, forum, or website, Heroes or otherwise and you want to promote it, please read the Rules of the Board prior to posting.
We also have a live chat every Monday night during Heroes. Hope you can join us!
Best regards,
Superhiro
I feel this covers almost everything board related, but please let me know if I missed anything. I think a Heroes FAQ is a fantastic idea, Erden, thank you for volunteering for this. Please start a sticky thread in the General Heroes Discussion titled "Heroes FAQ" and lock it and start adding questions and answers as they are suggested or as you think of them.
i think that maybe there should be a bulletin of some sort that i locked to reply but have an updated list onmost commonly used names for characters like peter and nicknames so people new to the forum dont confuse anybody on the forum as i did recently by calling the haitian MWG for mind wipe guy which is what me and my friends call him at school which carries on onto the site
Well... i still cant post so im putting my suggestion here... i want a spam forum!!! I like rock at spamming! not like saying spam over and over but like typing random things that r funny!

We actually do have more than a few links to Wiki on the board. The point of the welcome PM is to familiarize new members to Superhiro.org, and there are plenty of threads here which help educate new members about the characters and their history and powers.
As far as I can see, there are no incidences of classic "dumb n00b" question/response pairs on the boards. Nobody asks stupid questions, everybody responds with good grace. This is unlike the behaviour on any board or chatroom I have ever experienced. And so to all those on this one I say - no need for FAQ's, just keep on being great!
Approximate time until end of financial crisis - 3 weeks. Then I can buy waffles, hurrah!
I totally agree, Superhiro. I've never joined a board before because of dumb questions that could be answered by simply scrolling up, flaming, lack of original content or a semblance of organization, and massive clique-ocity (I made up a word! Woo!). Now that I think about it, I've never wanted to bother reading one for more than a week.
I'd like to commend all the mods, and members for that matter, for making this a fan-freaking-tastic place to be. Rock on.
If I knew you, I'd make you cheesecake. Or waffles
We're lucky here, we only have one resident public-flamer, and one-or-two negative energy monkeys. They've just had their spat for the week and the flamer has flounced off forever again, so we should be okay for another few weeks.
One has to put up with a little bit of negativity now and then, otherwise what would we have to compare all the positive energy to?

Eh, did I miss something? You guys should have been around for D.J. Omegatron.
