HOW TO PICK GOOD NAMES
FIRST:
Making a good name will make you sound less nooby, a bad name is like for example: iliekhalo20202. (No offense if real person >.>) Its a extremely long and annoying name.
SECOND:
Also, if you put a lot of numbers in your name, unless it totally matches it, like P0RTAL
You sound close to a noob.
THIRD:
If you choose a unique name, like EF for example, It sounds pretty cool.
Adding Alt Codes make your name also sound cooler, for example, MF, His name is upside down, he used Alt codes to do that.
FOURTH:
Copying names is pretty dumb. For example, Erbo comes on, then a person named Erlbo3542 comes on, notice that's totally copying a name? o-o
FIFTH:
If this is possible, Putting smilies in your name like :cry: :oops: C00Lg7y :cool: :cool: is also pretty nooby.
SIXTH:
Sometimes, putting pivot or elite man or something as your name can either means your a noob, or you like pivot to much, and will go berserk if you lost it.
SEVENTH:
I have finally updated, Oh, and Eternal, I did use you as a example xD
OK. I took some suggestions from people, first is ORANGE'S.
I suggest a good name could use alt codes. Don't get really carried away with your altcodes., makes you look like your chinese or something for some reason. >.> (BUT: If it is readable, and your whole entire name is alt codes, (like MF and EF) Your aren't a japanese. XD
Like I said, about unique names, it doesn't ALWAYS have to be unique, it could be common, like you REAL LIFE name, But it makes it a bit more unique if you add something good to it, Like CHA-POW, CHA is actually Charlie, its CHA's IRL name.
EIGHTH (<-spelling?):
I know this is kinda off-topic, but pick a GOOD name, its the only name you'll have. Because you'll have to become a mod/admin to change your name. So pick a good name, and stick with it.
NINTH:
Productions.
Anyone whos name includes "Productions" is ovbiously a noob who is new to Pivot, thinks highly of their lacking abilities, would like to establish themselves as a production company, mainly on Youtube, and will not be able to handle the tidal waves of negative comments about their vids or their name.
Throughout my time as a Pivoter, the only Productions man who is actually good enough to be Intermediate on any forum is MNSK Productions, more commonly known as Dr. Whippy. (Credz to Retroman)
TENTH:
People basing names off of people like Pivotmasterdx, PivotRJ, etc. are plain sucking up/wannabes, so don't do it
ELEVENTH:
TV shows
DO NOT DO IT
People like Inyuasha are complete fanboys of anime shows, so don't do it, choose something else, like IAMACOOLPERSONNOTSUCKINGUPTOANIMESHOWS That would be the best name ever.
HOW TO POST
FIRST:
Don't be a dumbass, actually do research first before posting something stupid, like for example:
Post 1: Dude, Black widows are the worst, they killed mai fukin dog.
You: WUTEVER BLACK WIDOWS ARE PATHETIC! They don't kill anything.
(Most likely not to happen, but you get the point)
SECOND:
Don't say dumbass things to members way more experienced then you.
Harrassing, Insulting, or being fucking stupid.
THIRD:
Don't do any kind of fad if you don't know how to use it.
EX:
Post1: A virus fucked up my computer, damn!
You: No shit, sherlock.
FOURTH:
Don't overuse smilies.
FIFTH:
Don't go offtopic
Post1: My cat died today );
You: GUYS! THE JONAS BROTHERS ARE BREAKING UP!!!11
MAKING TOPICS
FIRST:
Don't create anything nobody cares about,
ex:
I FARTED AND MY PANTS FELL DOWN
SECOND:
Do research before posting, don't end up like me with the "O'Bama increasing school year'".
THIRD:
Don't create topics to harass people, we'll just laugh.
FOURTH:
Don't create spam topics, really.
EX:
LKGJSDLGJSDLKGJDSLK
FIFTH:
Remember to make topics at the right section, pay attention to where you are, if you are making a music topic, place it in the "other" section.
AVATAR AND SIGNATURE
FIRST:
Don't have stupid avatars.. not really going in depth here.
SECOND:
Don't have fanboy avatars, like if you're obsessed with Naruto, don't have a Naruto avatar and signature, having every post related with Naruto, etc.
I can use more advice if you'd like.
