Everyone was a newbie once, lest we forget our own humble origins and the pitfalls on that road

Would you rather the newbies learnt nothing and got scammed all the time?

They deserve much better, and to receive help and guidance, from industry professionals who can impart such knowledge.

Newbies are the future

I had a website before I knew how to copy and paste. My host had to explain what ftp was. And no, I'm not kidding...

Thank God there were a few people who were patient with me and helped me get started. Snoops and 12Clicks stand out in my memory as people who really helped me get the ball rolling. Don't know where I'd be if someone didn't help this newbie.

Get used to it Sarettah.

We are gonna get new blood into Oprano on a daily basis.

Some will become great members of the Oprano family , some won't.

But new members are the life blood of a board.

Heh, not that kind of copy and paste... I was thinking of sponsor link codes.

I remember my first sponsor had a banner inside of a table, etc... and it took me about two hours to write down the linking code and get it to work on my site. I used notepad because I didn't know there was such a thing as an html editor.

I was sooooo clueless... still am actually.

It's interesting to have a look at the traffic figures for some of the better known newbie boards - from the numbers that I've seen my blog does better than some of those boards these days.
Either your blog just sucks. hehe

Or the thinning of the herds has begun! Wooohooo!

No, it wasn't.........

If your question was part of it, I wouldn't have offered a "real" reply to your question. A newbie does have to start somewhere

So, sorry you took it that way...I din't mean to point at anyone in particular....

You would have to go bak through the past several months of posts to see what I meant...

I am curious as to what makes someone a newbie.

And also what constitutes someone who is oprano 'family'.

I personally feel there is a distinct grey area right in the middle there, which I feel I fall into ... someone who is not a newbie, but has had over half a decade of experience in the industry. Yet most of that experiece was working for 'other people', so now that I am trying to put those concepts I learnt and new ideas I have to good use for myself, Im still finding alot of things I need to learn about. I'm sort of a newbie oldie.

Where do i fit in?

you are not a newbie you are an EXEMPLOYEE that spent 5 years working for someone and thought it was easy to do it on your own. It is not easy but we are here to help

you have serveral kinds of newbies

1.newbies with skills = those that know about htmls and shit but just started in porn cause they heard it could make money

2.lazy newbies = those that ask around to see if someone gives them the magic key to making money and don't like to read instructions or how to manuals

3.dumb newbies = eerm hmmm shit ahh those are the lazy newbies that after asking they don't understand.

i was lucky i had a partner back in the days that was good with scripts and shit so you can say he was like a mentor so i did not do much newbie shit cause he already knew plus he got me to meet a lot of people. back in the days you did your stuff made your money and thats it. webmaster boards were used mostly for spam and getting link trades going.

but yeah we were all newbies once most of the ones here were newbies with skills you do however get the dumb and lazy that run a site and dont even know what a harddrive is. those are the ones that spend lots of money on tech support and make hosting a great business LOL

I've always been a "teach 'em how to fish" kinda guy.

One of the things I've always enjoyed most on the boards is answer techie questions. Up until a couple or three years ago, that is about the only time you'd see me post.

So I'll always try to help someone with a question so long as they go about it the right way. A rude know it all who doesn't want to accept your answer, wont get a second one from me (did the bitch ever pay her hosting bill?). And I also wont waste my time with someone who is just too fucking stupid to be saved. Without a certain core aptitude, you just aren't gonna make it in this biz right now.
