Hi, I thought it was a good idea I saw recently that a newbie gets an automatic signature or avatar which says, I am a Newbie, please be nice. I have seen a couple of responsive posts lately where people are not being very nice to new people even though these people are stating they are new. Just because you are grumpy gives you no right to be mean or moody with a new poster. I mean what are we trying to do, make it a one or two person forum. At this rate of going there wont be a site for people to post on, cause like me of recent I have kept away due to the fact you always get a few which, for some reason decide to make comment on something in a very very negative way. I can bet your bottom dollar if I stood face to face you wouldnt dare say some of the things that are said on here, directly to me. Its all well and good hiding on your little computer sometimes.

Basically my point is we want to keep this forum alive and the odd few grumps are potentially putting newbies off.
