Attention Newbies: This Forum =! Echelon No, they are not the same thing.

Registering to the forum does not make you an "echelon."
"We" are not a family and "we" never will be.
And no, posting a thread in all four sub-forums does not mean people are gonna care more about some old myspace bulletin 30STM reposted twelve times. Not everyone is registered to this forum to click links for useless polls. If you want to pretend you're a promoter, at least have the decency to promote to people that aren't already fans of this band. We don't need to see Jared Leto in your avatars and signatures, and your username doesn't have to include a reference to this band either. We know you like this band, that's why you've signed up here. We are welcoming to new members, but we aren't going to hold your hand and sing you love songs. You're expected to follow forum etiquette just as much as the rest of us. Research your questions, don't expect a warm response for something you know is stupid to post, and quit expecting to be worshipped for putting 30 junk all over your body and web page. We know you're 14 and bursting with exuberance after hearing the band's first single "The Kill" and after getting their debut album "A Beautiful Lie", but you really need to tone it down with the bulletins. Minimalism goes a long way.
To be blunt: If you want to be treated courteously, be courteous to the workings of the forum. Respect is earned, not given.

I'll raise your Amen with a Hallelujah but doubt that it will make any difference to the fucktards who seem to have lost the basic ability for coherent thought.

I know, but pinned threads don't get looked at half the time because if you hit 'view new posts' they don't show up....
