the rules of gsb?
kso
im sure all of you from the blahblahs will agree with me on this topic as we have had a fair few "fakes and teenies" inflartrating gsb as we like to call it..
&& to all the new poeple unfamilar with this topic id like to say hello and try to explain what this blog is about
I know that there are offical gsb rules somewhere...but i doubt many of us have read them, or even know where they are..
*guilty raises hand* i know that i cant recall reading them, and really i ought to have done.
However the recent outburst of teenies and fakes, ie poeple who only like greenday because "lKyE ooh eeem ghheee biLLiE is sOOo fiT!!11" [[yes i do relise i am being stereotypical, i am just trying to give a brief overview]]
and poeple who pretend to be someone they are not, in most cases it is usually a girl pretending to be a boy, but it can also be classed as people making up lies about them cutting or being in danger, or purposfully acting annoying just to recieve attention
anyway like i was saying this outburst has lead me to think, what would the people of gsb class as "the rules"?
and i came up with a list
a) you should like greenday or if you dont please dont diss them infront of others..it is not polite
b) you should respect people's opinions and feel free to state your own, just in a proffesional manner,
[[if you go round posting how a certian band is "crap, ghey, shit etc" then do not be suprised when people start retailiating, your allowed to your opinion and they are allowed thiers, if you start shit, expect shit back]]
c) you should like greenday for the band, not how hot they are
yes i am fully aware it is possible to like a band and fancy the band memebers, what i am saying is you shouldnt just like a band because the lead singer is fit, but you've never heard thier music before..thats not being a true fan
d) respect the people
this means the members of greenday, all fellow gsbians, alll the mods and obviously dujo
and means that you shouldnt randomly start a fight with someone who you dont even know or ever spoken to before.
e) dont think you can randomly join, cuss out all of gsb and expect people to like you
you have to make friends the normal way..not come in and be all "i wanna be popular"
[[you may think e seems improbable but trust me it has happened o.O]]
f)dont be a fake
above are listed what most people on gsb would class as a fake....
fakes hurt people, people on gsb are trusting and caring, if you feed them a pack of lies and then it turns out you used them and werent really who you pretended to be, not only will you be hated, you will wreck that person's self-esteem and thier ability to trust in people [[i speak from personal experience]]
g) respect the site as a whole
this means read the guidelines, if it says not to post chain letters, then dont the guidelines are there for a reason, the majority of gsb requested them.
also if your one of those people who claim that "old gsb was thiers and new gsb is shit and all the neebs have wrecked it and no one knows them anymore", then please kindly get a life. i will admit when new gsb came i was amongst the people who freaked out and even signed the petition, the reason was though because i was scared of change and now i have settled in i must admit new gsb is way better, and im sure many will agree. As for losing popularity and the neebs, all i have to say is that it is the internet, you shouldnt need to feel "popular" on a website, we are all equal, and if certian people get along more then other people, its not thier fault, you cant blame people for being friends, so please get over your bitter jealousy and try to become part of gsb as oppossed to trying to ward of new members and starting "i hate new gsb" clubs
[color=DarkGrey]sorry my memory and attention span are failing me and also i fear i may run out of letters, so il cut this short and allow other people to add thier views/ rules to the comments[/color]
h) type legibally
by this i dont mean you must spell every word correctly or have perfect grammer or punctuation, [[i for one cant spell for toffee, ask anyone who knows me]] nor does it mean at all times you must type in correct english, hell a lot of us on the blahblahs [[myself included]] post many a blah that seems to be in some form of tribal speak o_O
, but its ok because we know we can type properlly and we are only fooling around, however if you are one of those people who type everything in text speak, and have random capitals all over the place, it would be an idea to change the way you type, i will admit when i first joinded gsb i used to type in "tennie speak" as people call it, but i learnt i was doing myself no favours, and if i took that extra minute just to try and type properly, people would be able to understand what i was saying and making friends and having discussions would be easier.
_______
ok those are all the "rules" so to speak id imagine the people of gsb would put forward
&& of course the last one would be
all important stuff should go in blogs
all trivial stuff should go in blahs
if you have an important problem and you post it in a blah, dont start complaining becuase people havent read or commented you, they most probably wont take you seriously on tha blahs, however they will on the blogs.
& vice versa, if you post some trivial piece of knowledge on the blogs eg, "i have a nail OMG DD:", dont be suprised if you get banned
once again..read the guidelines which the mods and dujo have set
kay so this is kim over && out :]

Lmfao.

thanx guys
& i know kurtni
hence why i said it was what most of the people on the blahs would think we shud abide by, of course these arent correct as i didnt know until now where the rules where, and i know they arent exact
im not saying that these are the rules as such, im just stating my opinion on what I reckon we should go by, but of course il go and read the rules noiw that i know where they are lol :]

Those are great and everything, and if everyone followed those we'd all get along alot better, but those aren't all the rules of GSB, and if anyone here hasn't read them I advise you to. They are on the message board under GSB rules and regulations. Alot of the rules we have weren't mentioned in here.
Kurtni, May 13th, 2007 at 11:04:03am
Yes, if people followed this it would be a Hell of a lot easier.
Miley Cyrus, May 13th, 2007 at 09:33:00am
i agree with you 100,000,000,000%
PaNcAkEs, May 13th, 2007 at 09:28:48am
Oh my word girl. You certainly have a way with words and i agree 150% [yes i am extra special and go to extra percentages] But yes the point being, people should read this and see the point of view of someone who has experienced it and therefore shut up before opening their mouths :]
Great blog love.
