You registered at 11:30 central time and posted half an hour later. And for a question like these, you really don't need to post anything at all.Bugger off. I posted a mere 19 minutes after I first registered. When is one reasonably suppossed to start posting after they register their name, hmm? Does anyone honestly hold off a day, a week, after registering before they post?
"But they should lurk!" you say. Ever figure that you do not need to register in order to lurk, and that someone who has immediately registered/posted is already familiar with the lay of the land?
Don't ever, ever cite the "You just registered an hour ago..." argument again. It is overladen with fallacies and assumptions that cannot pan out in every instance.
Political Correctness is the idea that you can foster tolerance in a diverse world through the intolerance of anything that strays from a clinical standard.
