TOPIC: Metal Blah Blah Blah

Ok.  here goes
if you ACTUALY want to be accepted, you need to fit in, that is to conform.  that doesnt mean that you have to think like me, I have disagreed with lots of members over various issues, to the point that once I was chalenged to a fist fight.
what it does mean is that you need to see the norms of the society that your in.  this board is its own society.  so for instance, all the posts are in english, or they go to a separate section (there are a few exceptions to every rule)
people dont post as often as you do, thats not an accepted norm.  nor is it an accepted norm to tell people what to think.  everyone has the right to an opinion.  I doubt that Rob would hate me for saying I dont care for the Halford band.  I dont thik it would hurt his feelings much at all.  he would deal with it like an adult.

replying to the right post, taking the time to get the gramar more understandable (not everyone speaks english as their primary language), posting no more frequently than others do, that sort of thing

I observed the board for months before joining.  Guido was years I believe.  that sort of thing goes a long way.

by the way, artists are built up from genuine criticism, not brought down.  without telling someone their painting lacks soul, they will never learn to paint beter.
