I tend to take a suspicious stand towards newbies..
Mainly because I find this a 'friendly-chat' forum (at least where I post
) and I know everybody in it, except for the occasional new member..
But as soon as I know this person, and maybe exchanged a few posts, my defensive stance drop and I treat them like I treat everyone else [img]smile.gif[/img]
Of course, this does not mean that I treat new members with disrespect, just not as friendly and open as members I know
