Yes I am very behind but I believe i have the best possible way to introduce Noobs. 1st I have been watching Dan 3 weeks after he uploaded his tutorial so i am well educated in my DBUology We need to start a thread in the introduction thread called "History of dan brown" (or along those lines). Now someone on youtube (I would prefer a partner so they can get over the 10:00 time limit) needs to spend a big chunk of time composing a video that shows major clips of the DBU history. I think the video should get the main "highlights" ... If the creator of this would like to throw in there own cometary I think that would help create a less formal video. I think this video would show noobs really what this whole legacy of DBU is about. main points off the top of my head would be -Rubiks cube tutorial -first Vlogs - the introduction of the DBU webshow -tribes -triads I am missing more minor ones to feel the gaps, if you see this as a good idea please contribute

A post like this doesn't belong in this section.. or anywhere on the moon. SPOTM is about the COMMUNITY. Yes, it was started by Dan Brown, but it's not centered around Dan, so knowing the history of his videos really isn't necessary.

We aren't Dan Brown. We are the "Brownie Army". We are "lead" by Dan to decrease world suck. We are "fighting" the badness in the world.

Ya i know but he is the reason we all know eachother, so i think a history on him would be quite important...
And there is the Wiki but I honestly think a new member wouldnt want to spend all this time reading on something he is unsure of joining. A video would be much more enjoyable

I think that everyone knows who he is anyway if they're on this forum.

PogoTribe isn't about Dan. It's about us.

I think we've reiterated our point enough.

But the welcoming of noobs would be impossible to show them every single individual members. But what if instead of the "history of dan brown" more or less the "history of the pogotribe" sound better???

I didn't have any kind of introduction and I was fine. I just jumped, right in, and now I'm addicted to the site. If people want an intro, they can ask for one in the Introduce Yourself part. They can say, "Hey. I have no clue what's going on. Tell me." We will tell them. If there's a large demand for a welcome video or intro (and it HAS been discussed before), I'm sure we can make one sometime. As of right now, I haven't seen too much demand for one. And in my opinion, if noobs are treated like noobs, they will think of themselves as noobs, and they will act like noobs. If people have confidence and just jump right in, IMHO, they will contribute to our little society here better. Is it great to see new members coming up with some good ideas, though.
