NO this is not a religion poll, so hold your breath. This has been done before, but last time I saw it was 2001, anyway...
Okay, I'm sure we were all once newbies. Some of you may still be-- but don't worry, you'll be qualified to answer this poll.
So what what are some of the stupidest mistakes you can remember making?
Me (keep in mind I was 12):
-Had a sig that was over two scrolls long, saying it will destruct in 20 seconds and doing a countdown with four lines in between each number, and then finally at the end saying just kidding and putting a bunch of Pokemon smilies and badges and what not.
-Posted "Charizard's RETURN! *SPOILERS*" as a topic title.
-Posted an AIM long in Misc just to brag about owning someone, when not only did I look like the dumbass, but chat logs weren't allowed.
-Registered the name "SCIZOR ROX DA HOUSE".
-Back during the era when everyone was online dating here and people messed with their usernames, I had "spinaZak238 *loves CrystalMew*", then we switched to the vB and I got stuck with it.
-Tried acting all high-and-mighty like I knew everything i.e. "this is spam, this should be closed, this should be moved"...
-Cheating at BB2.
-Accidentally spilling personal stuff I wasn't supposed to. As much as I enjoy holding the title of the Gossip King or whatever, some of you may notice that I stopped doing that stuff months ago. Now I'm more of the "in-crowd knowledge" person, and anyway I never in my life here have gossiped anything that was told to be kept a secret from the start. And if it seems rather dodgy yet they didn't say to keep it a secret, I actually bother to ask if its okay for people to know, and ACCEPT their answer.
Sorry, just had to get that out. Feel free to call me the Gossip Queen or whatever, but don't mistake me for one who's untrustworthy. More like an elephant who remembers little bits of irrelevant information is all. And if I tell something, I usually get asked first. Seriously, ask anyone who really knows me.
Anyway... lets not get into an arguement about me and answer the question, shall we? ;)
