I'm a HUSH lurker.

You can usually find me in the Micro Forum.

Thanks for the advice you folks have given me these past few months.

I love the corollary to this phrase:

How to become unbeatable? Don't respect anyone's raises [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

ps. I'm a lurker/shitty poster!

The lack of many stickies or organized guides makes it tough when you are learning but you will come to be happy about this gap in poker literature. It acts as a strong barrier to hordes of tight small stakes players who would otherwise infect our games. It also means that anyone who wants to become an ingrained part of the forum needs to suffer through this learning period. It's kind of a trial by fire that tends to keep the general level of posting here at a pretty high level (not that we don't have our problems).

Yep, I am in favor of having no FAQs/guides other than those that tell you what is kosher to post. I am even opposed to glossaries.

I agree with these sentiments.

Would a forum split make our out-of-the-way forum more inviting to tight small stakes players who would otherwise infect our games? Just a thought.

Umm, assuming there are any loose players. I'm not saying tight players will kick your ass or anything but they do take up a seat that might have been filled by a fish if the tight player was stuck at 3/6 full instead.

Ok, after some more thought, I agree with you.

I think it was supposed to happen with a forum upgrade, but the upgrade keeps getting pushed back. Or something like that...
