Rank Amateur
BREAKING THE ICE: Hi, Brand new here. Just call me RANK Amateur! As some have said before me:"I like these things and would like to learn to be nice to them, so they don't DIE", but rather to learn about them, so they can do all the beautiful things I know are possible. COMPLAINT OR QUESTION: Ok, I signed up, registered and logged in. So far so good. Now the message welcomes me and asks me not to be a "lurker" and "break the ice". Probably because I am a RANK Amateur, heck if I could find anything to simply click on so that I COULD Break The Ice. Maybe going to this forum is the way one is suppose to do it, but somehow it does not seem to be the correct way to do it. ANY COMMENTS from the Authorities or The Peanut Gallery?
