- Try making a decent signature & Avatar for your profile. something unique and eye catching. It's a great way to get people to recognize and notice you. If you don't have either of those, it's easy to get lost in the sea of new names.
Haha, not quite. ...and to keep this thread on track! Another tip! If you're new, get into Arbitrary Notions in Random Chat and get to know people!
My tip is, read Cracked. Because I f**king love that site and you should too. My real tip is, give your Linkin Park CD liner notes and/or any Linkin Park-related Wikipedia articles (just don't quote them) a good read, and watch Linkin Park interviews on YouTube, before you start new threads asking questions.
that was good - tip. Don't post a thread that your "leaving the site" odds are you are probably a jerk and nobody really cares
think for yourself, question authority. EDIT: I really want to say something smart ass about what Jacob posted above me, but, fuck it, it's 2AM. I'll leave it for another day, another thread.
As we've learnt from the comic thing from cracked, when you can't think of anything, attack their grammar. you're*

Postwhore in WSAYLT and "Word Association" until you get a supermember status. A few months should be enough
Try to listen to everything people have to say, even if you don't agree! And if you post in say, the Advice Thread and expect advice from people, try reading through other people's issues and try to give them feedback, too
