New Posters!...Are you lost like me?!

:confused: I am trying my dernst to keep up with technology!
Izzit just me?:smack: or am I hopelessly lost in computer illiteracy?:eek:

Is it possible that one can be too harsh on self-judgement of one’s own
ability to ketch-up?
I am soooooo Gnu! (the zoo, and all)
Someone from another thread was kind, (Mr. B I think I remember)
and this was encouraging…

What encourages you most? Sheer “what-the-heck”, or - responses from
other (perhaps-pernaps) experienced posters? (please try!)

We’ve been waiting for you. Perhaps you could tell us if there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. We like to know everything.

Stay cool, remain calm, all will come to you in time, skyzoo. Meanwhile, welcome to the SDMB. :slight_smile:

Yes. You should then try to pass musterd.
:wink:

You may have be thinking of me.

Don’t worry, the golden rule is not to be a jerk. Do that and you’ll be here for a looooooooooong time.

:slight_smile:

If you’ve got specific questions about how things work, you can certainly post them and folks will be glad to explain (or make jokes at your expense). Or you can email any Mod or Admin and we’ll be happy to help quietly (although we may still make jokes.)

Yes, it’s always nice to be polite at the dinner table.

If that doesn’t work, just eat several spoonfuls, and the next day, you’ll certainly pass the mustard.
:cool:

:x:

oops, sorry about that, I did not mean to post.

Well, you have the “smilie” thing down pat.

Once I learned the rules of this board (I read 'em when I signed up) I formulated a personal rule that I’ve found helpful:

Think Before You Post.

I forgot that a couple of days ago, and I’ve regretted it ever since.

Welcome to the boards. We’re nice people, usually. Except when we don’t stop to think.

I appreciate the advise and welcomes from each of you (and the funny stuff)
(or are these one and the same?)

I think any new poster would benefit with a few solemn responses and laughies!

I’m attentive to Exgineer’s advice - “Think Before You Post”…
I’ve thunk this one I hope! (ooh I hop so!)

And Aslan2 - I may have had you in mind too, because I met you in another thread.

I like the cleverness of so many…how invigorating!

Now if this jalopy computer with 32 meager megs will only meet halfway!
oops - back to the zoo…

Yes.

One of these days I will get this computer literacy thing licked.

And the math :stuck_out_tongue:

:eek: MATH!

Nobody said anything about math, too!

I’m doomed.
