Step 1: Read The Notice.

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 'O 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.

Step 3: Is what your saying Relevant to the current Conversation?

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...

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!

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.
