... that I was about to make a post that could be summed up as 'be more like Huinesoron, I'm awesome'. Because I am nothing if not puffed-up. So I didn't do that.
Then I decided to do it anyway, because now it's ironic.
Be More Huinesoron: A PPCer's Guide
-Never post a sentence when you can post three paragraphs.
-If you read a thread, reply to it - even if you don't have a clue what's going on.
-Everything is better with bullet points.
-Don't choose between linking, quoting, and summarising - do all three!
-Remember your past. Forever. And refer to it constantly.
-They call it a trailer - you call it an excuse for madcap theorising.
-Tomash is not to be agreed with (even if you agree with him). He stole Ozerbord, and Plort Is Life.
-Speaking of which, Plort Is Life. Never trust anyone who slights Baron Huinesoron.
-Disagreement just means you haven't used enough words yet.
-Periodically concoct grand plans to revitalise the Board. Abandon them before they have a chance to work properly.
-Never get over anything.
-A picture is worth a thousand words. That means a picture plus a thousand words is worth... more.
-Chatrooms are out to get you. Brood on it.
-You don't have to post stories often, but when you do, end them with a promise of a sequel. Actual sequel is optional.
-If you read it, review it.
-Never be afraid to learn too much about something new and then bore everyone with it.
-Always sound like you'll bite people's ears off if they disagree with you (even though you won't).
-Refuse to accept any kind of authority. Just post like you have it anyway.
-If you don't know, ask. Then ask some more. Never stop asking.
-50% of your posts will get no reply, 20% will receive only one-liners, 10% will be completely misconstrued, and 10% will spark discussion that peters out immediately. But the last, golden 10%... live for that. It will be better than you can possibly imagine.
