OcUK Hints and Tips

GD Forum

No knowledge of computers is necessary in GD. Infact, the less you know about computers the better. All you need to know for GD is that everyone else is weird.

To get the 'in' jokes, you need to read every GD thread. Kudos is earnt by those that post cross thread jokes, alienating other members.

Do not under any circumstances post "i dont get it". This will reset your OcUK kudos score, you may even be outcast for a limited period.

If you are a new member, put yourself up for claimage. This will give you the impression you are accepted into the forum. Although, its really just a big pile of naff designed to compliment the high kudos members.

If a member appreciation thread arises. Do not post under any circumstances.. "no one has mentioned me". The use of the sad smiley here will once more reset your OcUK kudos.

OcUK Kudos is earnt most immediately by posting something funny turning the thread into a thousand long reply marathon. Be warned, posting funny stuff has high risks. If it is a repost you shall be punished by intimidation from members here longer than you could possibly imagine.

Do not assume the older members all joined in Oct 2002. That was the last point before the OcUK War resulting in a nuclear forum detonation wiping the area clean. Unfortunately, Gilly came back, and we are yet to try and remove him once more.

I think we should start making a "Dummies guide to the OcUk forums" :rolleyes:

It'll be another year before you are old enough to go to meets but as soon as you can, do!
I've been here a while and you do get involved in the jokes and the threads, i've not really met a lot of people from here but i don't think that really matters. Just stick with us

KaHn · 31 May 2006 at 13:27

I know a few people who post on here,

Met a few more impromplty over the bank holiday weekend (Hey von and pebbles

)

Everyone seems very nice, and would like to meet some more of you

i get scared of OCuk because you all seem to know each other really well and have all the inside jokes and stuff, and it feels weird!! Although somewhat more 'homely' than a chatroom.. i tired one once.. never again.
Anyway im not ''having a go'' i just wanted to let you all know i think your nice but posting feels scary

Where in Hampshire are you from?

You can have some of mine in exchange for some touching if you like.

Doesn't matter I claimed you first so you go in my N00b farm, if your bf has over 100 posts he will not be allowed into the breeding program but I'll find you a nice new N00b to pair with.

Shh, only the upper echelon members know of such information... that should not be allowed out.
