Re: Bert, how can you be an ex-Limey?

Well, I'm an American Citizen now, and no, I'm not offended. Although there seems to be a new kind of citizenship now called 'Mudcateer' to which we can all aspire.

I had noticed that several newcomers had been scolded recently for not searching the DT or the threads first and also for not titling their threads 'correctly'

Things had been getting out of hand regarding thread titles. I think what happens is that newcomers don't really know the best way so they copy the easiest way.

If we welcome them with a smile instead of scolding them, they will soon get the hang of things. I know that every one of us welcomes them.
