I--DarkGod--I wrote: This is really mushy and cheesy. I just read all of this guy's repeated posts on your wall, Ed. Not to sound like the immature little jerk I used to be, but don't feed the noobs. For example, where I go to for my martial arts, there are little kids classes there too, and a select few of those little kids will follow me around thinking i'm like some god or something but they'll bug me alot and interfere with me and my real friends. Recently, when I was at a picnic event, the worst of those kids was there and started interfering with me and my friends, and the kid is also very touchy with me so yeah. I tried to advoid him so I sit with my mom and grandma, and they start feeding the kid the chocolate sprinkle doughnut holes we bought. I flashed them a look of dissaproval because I was trying to make it clear this is the kid I don't like. They didn't get the hint. I haven't seen the kid since but the idiot is going to think i'm even more "friends" with him. He's like the worst spongebob on the planet. As I said, don't feed the noobs. Chase it away before it tries to mate

I can understand the sentiment, but that's really harsh..! Even if someone's annoying you, you should be greatful that they actually LIKE you that much! I mean, what's he supposed to do- get mad at the kid for liking him? Be a jerk to get the kid to go away? That's definitely not what's supposed to happen here!

Additionally, we must remember that noobs are the future. Once everyone here is gone, there'll be an entirely new system and a new set of users. If we scare them all off, there won't be anyone left to keep this wiki in place.. Heck, Des knows firsthand how bad a thing it is after the Tiny incident... Besides, weren't we all noobs once?

This sort of mentality just isn't the right way to head.

I support Ed's choice to be polite and civil towards the newbie.
