Back up your claims and be honest.

Many people around here will eat you alive when you post things like:

Marijuana has no harmful side effects
Religion X is wrong, but my religion is correct
The earth is 6000 years old and men walked with dinosaurs
"My friend did X for years and nothing bad happened to him" (this is a fallacy)

without any supporting proof - be prepared to have your sources analyzed and keep an open mind.

People will call you on your Bullshinguard.

The first rule of CP is do not talk about CP.
The second rule of CP is do not talk about CP.
The third rule of CP is to put the smile on the face.
I forget the fourth rule.
The fifth rule is not to be a douϲhecanoe.

We need to classify you easily for any political/urban discussions, answer the following questions so we can determine your leanings:

1) Do you like lattes?
2) Do you like interchanges?
3) When I say "City Hall" what is the first thing that comes to mind?

you google wolven bingo calgarypuck and see what comes up. No recollection on my part. Jeez.

I do posting binges. I'll post a lot one day and not post for a week or longer then come back and post binge again. It's 30 degrees out (too hot), I'm sick of reading Robertson Davies detail the differences between religious denominations in pre-Trudeau Christian Canada, and I'm on two pots of coffee. Recipe for post binge.

Way to make me feel welcome, buddy.
Welcome.

This is why you shouldn't be like them. A couple of trolls who add nothing to the forum or discussion and walk a thin enough line not to get hit with a ban hammer. Welcome aboard, jump into the discussions, feel free to start your own, and avoid the two obvious trolls who were nice enough to point themselves out further in this thread.

So, anything I can do to not make a complete ass out of myself.

In before 'you already have lol'
What kind of answer are you seriously looking for here? Do you think CP has a secret club or something?

It's the internet and the "guidelines" are the same everywhere on the interwebs.

I'm seriously trying to find out what type of answer you were seriously expecting. Seriously.

Welcome.

First off, dont make any threads like mine, apparently i make bad threads.

Second, put puckluck on ignore, things will go much smoother for you.

Third, quadruple check any suggestions you put forth lest you be set upon by the rabid of us.

This seems to be the thread for everyone to get out their grievances.

And don't forget to put sarcasm in green lettering.

Welcome to the forums.

Just a hint: People will like you if you're logical, provide good information and opinion, and are generally polite.
