    ATTENTION NEOPHYTES:

    Welcome to MuseBlog, the perfect place to go if you are interested in pies, Muse, hot pink bunnies, Kokopelli, and intelligent discussions. Please read the rules and the HG2MB, be mature and polite, and don’t make pointless posts, or else you’ll be fined 500,000 pieces of virtual choklit by the PoPoPo. Other than that, have fun, and have a pie! *SPLAT* :D

    Hello Neophytes. Don’t worry.
    Heres just a few things you might like to know.
    ~ When you have posted what you think might be the first post on a thread DO NOT wrie FIRST POST!!! and then send it off with nothing else written. This will only infuriate everyone. It is however OK to write a nice post and then add first post? at the bottom.
    ~ If you are on Internet Explorer 7, your comment box will shrink if you post a long post like this one. You can remedy this by opening MuseBlog with Firefox or some other internet which I can’t remember. The other easy way is to type your long posts in Word and then paste it into your comment box.
    ~DO NOT USE AIM OR TEXT VOCABULARY!!!! USE GRAMMAR AND PROPER SPELLING!!!! I meen wood u like it if I psted usin slang or nt reel wordz? Save it 4 ur txting or im convos. How annoying is that??? Please refrain from that vulgar usage of wording/spelling. If you absolutely must do it, pick up your phone, open IM or do it on another blog!!!!!! However, unintentional spelling mistakes are acceptable.
    ~ Although we are random, a post like “I like pickles” on a thread discussing something like The Hare and The Hedgepie IS STRICTLY FROWNED UPON!!! It isn’t even very welcome on the random thread of the month.
    ~Lastly all Neophytes are pied as a welcome. This is normally a friendly gesture so please don’t feel unloved if you are pied!!!
    So here have a pie and enjoy MuseBlog!!!!
    *throws a chocolate raspberry tart that looks like a pie at all newbies*

    and dont expect anymore posts from me.

    now all neophytes – GO AWAY!!!

    Hello, wonderfully new noobies Neophytes! *blackberry pies*
    Post #3 should get down to business so I’ll start with:
    1) This ain’t a chatroom. f u tlk lke ths well rant on u bcuz we usuly us propr gramr & spelng heer but if u axdently spel smthin rong its ok im horbl @ speln
    2) Read the Rules and HG2MB before starting to continuously (see? I probably spelled that wrong) post. They’re helpful.
    3) NO smiley armies. They clog the blog and make loading much slower.
    4) HTML tricks and testing go on the HTML Tricks and Testing thread.
    5) Try to condense everything to one post. Double posts are usually overlooked, but if you make triple/quadruple/five? posts or more we’ll start to get a bit mad.
    6) Say something interesting that adds to the topic. If you have nothing to say (wheee! I like cucumbers!=no) don’t say it.

    Have fun MuseBlogging Neophytes! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

    The only thing I don’t like is easily fixable bad spelling. how you post represents how you are as a person, or how you hope to represent yourself, and what others will think of you. Appearance isn’t everything, but it is a good deal of things. Which brings me all the way back to post 12.

    Gender isn’t an issue on the blog for me, because it doesn’t really change how I think or interact with any of you. I am afraid that it will change how you see me though. I think that personality can reveal some of the more obvious facets of gender (I would know MissSwan was female even if her name was MSwan), but I know that I can be, and have been mistaken for a female online. I’m not offended by this, and I see no reason to be. Gender is not obvious from screen names alone, and unless disclosed, can remain secretive for any length of time.

    140- Yes, you are absolutely right. Want to know why? Because to this day, females are opressed and have less equal rights as males. The Middle East, for example. Women have to wear restricting garb, have zero rights, and are considered a shame to the family name if they are raped. Even in America women don’t get the same rights as men. Women only make 75 cents to a dollar that a man makes. If you are a single mother trying to raise 3 toddlers, how can you pay for anything? Also, look at a list of presidents; se any women? No. And Hillary clinton is losing to Obama, a man, and people in the South (I don’t know who exactly, I just saw it on a news story) say that they’d ratnher die than vote for Hillary, just because she’s a woman. Even though she’s perfectly capable of being an excellent president, yet still they won’t vote for her because she’s a woman. (I also have nothing against Obama, he;”s a cool dude. ) And women in Switzerland haven’t been able to vote until 1977. All I’m trying to say is, women have a right to feel offeneded at the fact that some men are sexist. We’re just as capable as men. I’m not trying to put you down or anything; I still like guys. Just not the sexist bidiot.

    I like Obama, becuase he’s fresh, and I don’t feel as though the entire political machine has tampered with his mind too much yet. His speeches and viewpoints feel human and sensitive. In short, he comes across as being a sincere person who is really exerting an enormous effort to do this, becuase he’s recognized the same problems that we all encounter, and he wants to solve them. He also seems tough to me. And not becuase he’s naturally agressive, but becuase he’s fighting for something he believes in vehemently as a person. That kind of strength appeals to me more than downright political aggresivity. Plus, I am a huge fan of cap and trade as a means of checking industrial pollution. :grin:

    264 – I’m not still a ‘phyte to you, right? A lot of people think I’m new. I didn’t post a lot as Kokonilly before.

    Hardly anybody knows (or remembers) that I was fellowmuser.

    I know. I was totally immature when I came here, but isn’t my grammar okay? A bit better than it used to be at least? I never realized it was that bad, or so you say. Anyway, I’ve actually only been posting on the entire blog for four months…before, it was just on MH and Return of the Muses. (whoa, old thread!)
    So don’t I deserve a little respect? I never did anything TOO immature, so why am I still a neophyte?

It would breed discord and enmity, two things which are antithetical to the spirit of Muse…” *reads off a lengthy brief* “…In conclusion, such a thread would not only be unmuserlike, it would also destroy the blog!

We are also willing to wield the GAPA Zap of Doom if necessary to stomp out flickers before they become flames.

    Therefore, MBers, please be on notice to drop this discussion of what constitutes who is neo, meso, archeo, or paleo. As Robert pointed out, aside from everything else, such a discussion does not serve the purpose of this thread.

    We are all Musers here. We are all MuseBloggers here.
