Post What to read first?

Hi! I joined on this forum this week.

Soz for asking, but I was hoping someone could point me to any particularly relevant posts that I should have a read of first, so I can get involved here?

Thanks! Mike

mgladstonez, it really depends on what you are most interested in. Are you looking for anything specific?

Read the FAQ, pointer above.

Skim the sticky topics at the top of each subforum. When you find yourself reading "Rules For Posting To This Board", read carfully.

Welcome, mgladstones. One thing you probably should read is the forum rules. A couple of minutes spent now may save you some nasty little surprises later. They're a little stricter than most places.

Other than that, any of my threads and posts are a must read. Scientific studies show any number of medical benefits can be had just from reading my posts as a regular daily five minute regimen. (He's lying.) These benefits may include (but might not be limited to, or even exist):

* An average gain of five IQ points. (That's Internet Quotient, not Intelligence Quotient)
* Clearing up any acne you might have (On your toenails. All bets are off anywhere else.)
* Improving your night vision an average of one full point. (No more walking into doors at night. Much.)
* Eliminates unsightly hair (On your toenails. Again, all bets are off...)
* Improving your memory (Though I forget how, exactly.)
* Infinite understanding (Or at least help understanding infinity courtesy of that certain nameless thread.)
* Repelling rogue elephants (Why, do you see any?)
* Getting in shape. (Round's a shape, right?)
* And Beck. (No idea, really.)

As you can see, reading my posts grants any number of useful benefits. (Zero's a perfectly legitimate number.)
