(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Yo yo yo yo yo, I've seen alot of people in the shoutbox recently that are just ignored completely. I do know the reasons why. Read this Guide carefully and I will tell you little newbies out there on how to get noticed and get friends =D

Step 1: Read The Notice.
You must login or register to view this content.
That's right, I'm fed up of people that come into the shoutbox, and do not read the Notice. The shoutbox could be very important! An example of this would be that the other day the Notice was 'Awesome faceO NOT TALK ABOUT LOBBIES IN THE SHOUTBOX!!!', clearly stated as you can see, HOWEVER. A few little newbs came into the shoutbox (no offence but mostly non-premium) and decided to say stuff like 'Is Hunter online?' or 'Is anyone hosting a lobby?'. The Moderators we're constantly pi**ed of that day due to people constantly posting up stuff like that. Don't do it! Read the Notice!!

Step 2: Think before you Press Enter...

Right, Some REALLY nooby people out there decide to post the most stupid things in the Shoutbox and then get themselves banned. Seriously, if you intend on being a member here for a long time at NextGenUpdate, then just don't do it. Don't go to a Moderator 'Your a nob'... That would be THE most stupidest thing that you could do in your life ever. Honestly. Maybe you just talking to another member, and then you say to him/her, 'YOUR A ******* ****** YOU ******* ***'... Yeahh... Don't do it. You will most probably get Banned for stuff like that. So remember, before you press that 'Enter' key on your keyboard, just think what you are going to achieve from that post. Winky Winky

Step 3: Is what your saying Relevant to the current Conversation?
You must login or register to view this content.
Okay, I cannot stress this enough. There are time when EVERYONE in the shoutbox is talking about something and having a Happy old time talking about it. Like recently the World Cup, everyone in the Shoutbox has been talking about it, and then some person just comes along and says something completely irrelevant like 'I just made a Jam sandwich'... WHO ACTUALLY CARES. Honestly! Do you really expect someone else to reply with... 'Oh Cool, I ate one last week...' when everyone else is just talking about the world cup. So that is Step 3, Remember, is what you are saying Really Relevant to what everyone else is talking about...

Step 4: Don't Bum Lick..

When someone popular on the Forum comes into the shoutbox like 'Outsider' or 'Gobble' or 'HSx9' or even 'Hunter128'. Don't go into a Private chat a be like 'ohey, your Forum's great!!' or 'OHEY DUDE, I think your great!!!1, any chance of me getting into a lobby'... I've seen it a million times, and it just won't work..

Step 5: Grammar!
You must login or register to view this content.
Another thing that I have noticed quite recently, everyone that get's ignored have bad grammar. People that speak like '0h3ll0 th3r3. i haz ben puttin lota wrk in2 my 3nglsh essy'. Now there's two things wrong with that, firstly your going to fail your English essay with that, and secondly, everyone hates people like grammar with that. Trust me, your not a 'Gangster' that's Brappin' it up on the East side. So be yourself. Trust.

Meh. Kinda a post that is purely obvious anyway. Anyone who is oblivious to those points is just a leeching troll anyway, they're not going to read/pay attention to this anyway. I would have thanked this post and whatever, but since I saw you sneakily asked for rep at the end, you horribly blew your chance. 80 rep out the window :( For you, anyway.

"Read the notice"? Maybe if there non-premium they haven't been on the sb for a long and i'm sure people screwing at them for making easy mistakes will turn them away from the site. Or they could even be taking the piss, although it seems that certain moderators do not possess a sense of humour.

Think before you Press Enter...

People decide what they type no one here is particularly stupid, I'm sure that people know the consequences of their actions and obviously they will know that swearing at a moderator wil result in some kind of punishment. But even still there's no need to patronise people when who are you man?

"Don't bum lick"?..

"The Moderators we're constantly pi**ed of that day due to people constantly posting up stuff like that."

..says the person who creates a guide to try and boost his image, gain rep and overall increase his chances of being a mod at some point. Get real man, people are ignored because half of the people in the sb refuse to listen to anyone unless there a mod and as soon as someone such as Outsider posts, everyone jumps on his dick.

And as for "saying things that aren't relevant to the current conversation", do you not think perhaps that people might be having other conversations in the sb? Do you have a tantrum everytime someone changes the subject or are you to ingnorant to think that people might actually be having seperate conversations in the sb?

And for correct spelling man, people get home from work or school, they don't want a lecture on how to spell. Have you thought ever that might possibly be because abbrebviating words is quicker and makes wording out a conversation quicker? Do you ensure specifically that all your words are spelt correctly in each text you send?

Rant over.
