Make sure you can spell, use the correct punctuation & grammar, and don't use text speak.

This can apply to not-so-newbies too.

Why do we need to be "thick skinned" on forums? Shouldn't we just try and be helpful? If we can't be helpful then ignore and move on.

Plus every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.... I see "happy Monday" etc this has been posted every week by a non newbie where's the complaints? Stop being so cliquey!

True but it lacks certain other important things... like butter and flour (though not all cakes have flour)... I think we might be taking this too far...

now that would take more than extra activities for some maybe cake talk is what's needed after all.

A world of my own

My god some people need to lighten up .. The forums are supposed to be a giggle are they not?

No wonder new people get frustrated.

As others have said if you don't like a post don't comment

.if you can't say something nice, then it's usually best to say nothing at all.

A newbie help topic in the faq section may help. However I don't think anyone should ever be made to feel they can't post .. I've lost count of some of the same drivel posts on here but would never have a go at anyone for posting them.

Fab is full of too many over inflated egos at times. People with a sense of entitlement and those who think they are somehow all seeing and all knowing.

Lighten up .
