We get lots of new people but how many actually stay and become regular posters and are accepted by the community as a whole? 

depends on the motives for joining.  shit is sniffed out pretty fast.
some people come for immediate deals and leave fast.  some people come and overstay their welcome, cant take the hint and keep coming back (active, but never actually contribute anything).
Some people just pop off with tough guy arrogance.  those are my favorite.

To the "newbies":

I would love for folks to discuss any aspect of TG-16/PCE, even  things like the old advertisements... old reviews (in context) vs contemporary views... Cover art... music...

Basically, you don't have to discuss actual games all the time (although that is welcome).

Thank the almighty I kept all of my gaming stuff from childhood.

You're welcome, but you only have yourself to thank, my son.

Hmm yess.

It would seem that as a newbie, you have to pay your dues to make any headway... That has it's good points for sure. To some at first it can come across as a uppity click site, but if you move around the few turds then you can do just fine.... You have to not take things so personal and just move past the dumb. However for some they need proof of god having humor and it would appear that some members fit into those guidelines.... When you get right down to it, it's words on a page on a screen that can be turned off......

Go on.

quite frankly it is not hard to fit in around here. its like it has been said before, be nice to others provide info and be helpful when you can. most people that get ruin their welcome here tend to go around ripping others off and pulling bs shenanigans or try to make a quick buck out of the membership here. you would think that many of them would get the hint by reading that this place has no tolerance for that...

 Word, and welcome!

Well hey o.pwuaioc fancy seeing you here.

To the rest I just joined today because I put in an application over a month ago I'm very active on Racketboy Neo-Geo, and Shmups.   But recently a friend of mine found me a White PCE/CD Briefcase with Castlevania Dracula X for an absolute steal (about $120)  So I had it RGB/S-vid modded and bought a Turbo Everdrive.  Figure I should join this site, I hear Joe Redifer is a mod here and I love his vids and we have very similar interests (Sega and Neo Geo )

Despite that, welcome man

Make sure your first few post aren't

1. In the Marketplace
2. In the wrong area of the Marketplace
3. Asking for items that there's an active Sales thread for already

Watch the reception BT83 gets.

Haha well you know me I'm no vulture and certainly not a flipper, I'm just here to learn about a PC engine since I basically new nothing about it before I picked it up.  Got a stack of CDRs and my Turbo Everdrive and I'm ready to just enjoy it
