noobs helping noobs to not be such noobs and by doing so become less noobs themselves.

Goal: achieve self-awareness of such noobish behavior such as posting in the noobs section of this site (but were going to ignore that for now because we've got more serious and pressing issues at hand).

First of all, you may already be aware that you're a noob but that doesn't mean you actually how big of a noob you are until you wind up spending some time learning a lesson. This lesson can range from mild to extreme but the point is that you learned something. By learning something you become less of a noob. Make sense?

Healthy guidelines:
show humility and respect for what's going on here. People have been around much longer than you and have invested much more time and money into the scene to give you the parties and music that you may or may not take for granted.

Ask questions.
Try not to be stupid after learning what stupidity is.
Look stuff up BEFORE you take it. If you're into that sort of thing. May sound obvious but it is truly imperative that you know what you're getting into. Some mistakes are simple lessons learned while others may mean life or death.

Ask yourself "why am I here?"
Once you've figured that out find out what you can do to make this a better place.

Don't be ashamed of your noobishness. Don't even try to hide it. Make it your friend and then be sure to pass on your noob lessons on to other people so at least you can say "told ya so" and then hopefully share a laugh after the misery of being a noob has passed. :-)

That's all for now, be safe and have fun. And learn from your mistakes!!! If you don't learn anything then its only going to happen again until it finally gets beaten into your thick know-it-all skull. Then suddenly you'll be sitting there thinking "god I'm a fucking noob" - this is a good thing though because it means a lesson might actually be starting to sink in.

We're all noobs in this lesson called life.

This was written because its 7am and all I can do now is reflect upon the stupidity of the night before. Kind of like those nights where you're hugging the toilet swearing you'll never drink again only to wake up and do the damn thing the next weekend.
