Welcome, man (or woman?) This website is pretty fucking (you can curse here) cool. But there are just a few things you might want to know:
- Do not look Luchadeer in the eyes, and never question his authority.
- Read Sweep's blogs (but also read dankempster's blogs.)
- The Giant Bombcast is every Tuesday.
- Our community podcast is Bomb Should Have a Face.
- Don't drop the soap.
Welcome to the site. It's still a threat
Listen to the Bombcast, it will fill you in on how the staff here works and what their editorial biases are. Plus you will be able to understand all the in-jokes that are prevalent around the site.
Obey the dark master's wishes (Luchadeer)
Work on the Wiki if that's your thing. You get more points by editing pages than you do by adding images.
The forums here are pretty nice, but if you spout an opinion contrary to that of the masses (e.g. Resident Evil 5 will not be a terrible game), expect to be degraded in the same way as other gaming forums. Don't let that happen.
All in all, a great place to be.
"I will make you happy free of charge. You seem like a nice guy. I would never sell sexual services to you. I'm sure your a nice guy but things like that could get my posts deleted. Crazy guyyy!"haha, great stuff.

"Two more things: Whats the backstory of the loochadeerand are there gamedays/contests?Thanks for the info :D"luchadeer first showed up in one of the How to Build a Bomb episodes, the series that the gang had before the actual site launched. i'm not sure which episode though.
"Don't listen to any of the fools on these forums with high post counts. We just spam images all day and make the general intelligence of the internet drop about 5% a day.But that's why we love you guys? Because a crap load of negatives make a positive!That's right, we're in the negatives."

This is, of course, a joke. :DThat's right, we're in the negatives."
Welcome to GB folks, we are all friendly here and honestly don't bite.
Trust me, this is your new home of videogames.
Welcome you two. Check out....the ENDURANCE RUNS. They are great. And Bombcast of course. Still, there are a lot of great threads, too. Besides the Community Spotlight, check out the Giant Bomb Official Staff Photo Edit Thread. It is my fav on the site.
