thehilk:If u have to ask... Ur not ready. I think it's when u stop looking over your shoulder in fear, and look forward to responding to attacks
brianetz1: thehilk:If u have to ask... Ur not ready. I think it's when u stop looking over your shoulder in fear, and look forward to responding to attacks This this 100% this. When people aren't nominating you to be bombed and/or people aren't looking at you and saying I haven bombed that newb yet.....and begin to say I ain't bombing that guy because I don't want to start a war. Either that or you have repayed all the newb bombs.

So...I'm a Newb for life around this joint?Unless you can tell us what you know about Ray Finkle Dolphins kicker named Ray Finkle, whom he missed during his earlier investigation because Finkle was a mid-season replacement. Finkle had missed the potentially game-winning field goal kick at the end of Super Bowl XVII, causing the Dolphins to lose the game and his own career to fail. Finkle's entire home town turned against him and his family, and the demoralized Finkle became obsessed with Dan Marino, whom he blamed for the missed kick. What did I win? I'm no longer a newb.

Either that or you have repayed all the newb bombs.I disagree entirely. Newbness has nothing to to with any level of bombing or not getting bombed. I've never been bombed by Kuzi or Jliu or...or...or... (you can insert so many names here), or any number of "vets". I appreciate the bombs I get, but I don't fear them. I know I can't usually respond, but that's a budget thing. It's what I get for working for a nonprofit. Since I don't send many replies or bombs myself, I don't get hit a lot. I know there are others in this same boat with various levels of activity on these boards. As to what removes "newbness," I don't know. I just don't think bombs have anything to do with it.

This I have to agree with completly. When I started on the board newbs didn't get bombarded with bombs at all, maybe a welcome trade or something but there definitely wasn't any bombing of newbs like there is today. I believe I've been bombed all of two or three times since I've joined this board and I also because of budget don't send out too many so I'm perfectly content with that. As far as how to transition from newb to vet who knows and who cares.

I just don't think bombs have anything to do with it.Agreed, especially with the bomb thing. I might add, that to me, it is the motivation for the bomb that is more relevant. There are some that bomb for the recognition...there are others whom bomb and specify that they are NOT to post any pics acknowledging said acdtion..as it is a gift. Perhaps a few questions to ask of oneself...is: 'why are you bombing someone?' What if they do not post the pics for all to see? Do you expect to have fire returned? and are you in a way, disappointed if they do not? Perhaps the answers to these questions might reveal your place of the scale of newbie to vet. Just some random thoughts. Interested to read some replies.
