Rules on pointlessness

My life is a mad lib. I have no clue why things happen or how it relates to anything, but I'm sure there's a point. (Like why I tripped over a steel kitchen sink on the front porch when I came home from a dance at 2am in HS.)

Now this i agree with.

Yeah, i now exactly who you guys are talking about ...
In a way it could be kinda my fault.
She doesn''t speak english well and alot of times she tries to
help people but doesn't always understand what they are talking about clearly.

Some days back when i was talking to her,
she was sad about some problems she has been having
on the forum and not be able to help poeple well.
She was talking about not posting in the forums anymore because
she wasn't as good as it like other poeple and was
hard to understand at times.
I told her if she like to to be in the forums then continue to post
in the forums and don't worry about not being as good as others or what other poeple say.

Ofcourse i must have forgot to to tell her only to post when she
is actually sure she knows about whats going on ^^;

I talked to her and asked her to make sure she understands
well whats going on before she make a post in a thread.
She said she will try better not to say the wrong things and to make sure she reads the post well before making one.
She likes the forum and doesn't want to get banned for saying the wrong things.
Hopefully she will get better with her posts.

I really don't think she should get in trouble or banned for trying to get used to the forums.

I hope you can understand my post since im kinda tired right now ^^:

Some of us would prefer that the community shape new members into something useful, rather than The Powers That Be doing everything. How many of you were ushered in the way of forum life by an admin or mod? I know I wasn't.

>.> either way i had already pmed her and talked to her about this before someone decided to create this thread...

this didnt need a thread to be made a big deal about... all it needed was a couple pms and it would have been taken care of...

the person in question has agreed to lurk a bit and see how this place works... all she wanted to do was to be helpful to people, she just didnt realize she was going about it the "wrong way"
