Ok, so I'm going to try to make this short and sweet.

I know a lot of these posts have already been made, but I really feel like this is a serious issue on TTG that hasen't been addressed and it NEEDS to stop. TTG is growing by like 500 people a day, and obviously, they start off with 0 posts, but hey, everyone needs to start somewhere, right?

Whenever I see someone with a low post count try to express their opinion about something, or they are trying to help out the community, all I see is, "You have 5 posts, you're not legit", or, "100 posts? GTFO". Now I realize that sometimes, these people are trying to scam you, but most people just want to help out the community or they just want to express their opinion that someone asked for.

If the new members keep being treated like this, eventually, there won't be any new members!

So I guess I'm done with my rant. I'm really sorry (to the newer members) that some TTG members are treating you like this, and I hope you will continue to stay active here on TTG.

So remember: just because you may have a high post count, doesn't mean you are superior to anyone else on TTG.

And I realize that not every new member on TTG comes here with good intentions, but that will be obvious once he starts posting. And 99% of the time, they are treated the way the deserve. But there are a lot of new members that DO come with good intentions, that don't get treated the way the deserve.

Also, I know there are a LOT of people on TTG with high post counts that treat new members/low post count members with respect, and I appreciate that, but please note that this post is not directed towards you, it's to the people who think they are superior to others.

You have a valid statement, but if a member with a low post count isn't even noticed (eg: their opinion is just ignored or their post is ignored), it is nearly impossible to gain the respect they hopefully deserve.

But please, if you are trying to talk to iLove2Shuffle, please use the PM, I don't want to start a flame war on here.

That's good, and I wasn't talking about every member is treated like this.

This is also another valid statement, and it is very unfortunate, but I believe that the flaming can be reduced, but not stopped.
