Here is how things work in this fine gambling community for newbie posters. I have laid out a six step process for every SBR poster.

1) Make Post introducing yourself. Don't say anything funny or offensive in this intial thread. Ex. [URL]http://forum.sbrforum.com/players-talk/78845-hi-everybody.html[/URL]

2) Don't start anymore threads for the 1st month but just add on to threads with a few witty remarks and make few bad picks. During the 1st month you want to go pretty unnoticed. Please read what PittsburghPlayer writes in the following thread. Notice how his comment does not draw any attention to himself.
