[Purple Urkle]

After two years of dipping in and out of RVF life I'm just beginning to understand what's going on here. For example, I didn't really know what trolling was or that we're supposed to be beta-bromancing each other and embracing the big brother troll police. But after reading the thread about senior member banning and being called out for some mini-meltdowns I'm beginning to see how I've personally been out of line on several occasions simply because I did not understand RVF communal procedure. So, I think I'll slow down and read more forum material before posting "controversial," attention seeking perspectives. One thing I can suggest to newbies and part-timers is that before going off on someone take a good look at their previous posts and threads. You may find that you are about to go off on a cool dude and this will put the breaks on an unjust attack. As Roosh says "think hard before posting (it's forever) and don't be a dick." Easier said than done. Knowledge is power. Understanding the forum takes time. Move slow. Be methodical. READ the forum for DETAIL. Build community and goodwill.
