<updated> Newbie Guide to Getting Contacts in FL Dome

OK since I’m pretty free this morning I’m doing some consolidation of the guides I’ve posted for easier reading.

---Start of guide---

First thing you should do as newbies is please read the stickies here in this newbie forum, it has provide you with a guide of some rules to follow. After reading them and I mean REALLY read not just go there to post "I've read" "good advices" "I'll follow" and the go make exactly the same mistake again.

Second (coming to the meat of this guide) is to follow this simple steps.

1) SEARCH - using the search function provided. The search button is located on the dark blue bar on top of the page, between New Posts and Quick Links. It also has a small downward pointing arrow. Click on that, and it will drop down a small text box. Type in this field your request (e.g. Big Boobs, Local FL). Please press enter at this time, or you can just click on the "Go" button. You can also use the advance search function too. But explaining its use will be too long for this guide.

2) READ - the FRs undoubtly be shown to you from your search. Please remember it takes time and effort to write the FRs. Not to mention cost for bros who actually go do the hunting for gems. Find one that you like and scroll to the original thread starter.

3) PM - the thread starter. To do that click on the nick, and it should drop down a list of option, the second on the list is to send a message to the person. You will want to do that so click on it. It should open a new window. On the title type in "RE: FL <insert name of FL>". On the main body of the message, type in your requests for contacts. Please be courteous (the word please should be use liberally), humble (praise the thread starter for good FR and how the FR make you steam and how you like to get the FR).

These 3 simple steps should get you your VERY FIRST FL contacts from bros here.

DO NOT make your requests as if we owe you the contacts. DO NOT KPKB if bros do not feel comfortable to give you contacts (i.e. dun give you any contacts lah). DO NOT post requests as starting post without searching first.

DO be humble. DO thank the bro that give you the contact. DO add his points if you enjoyed your bonk. DO write a FR on his thread after you tried his contact.

FL Dome Code of Ettiques

Exchange of contacts

Newbie bros with some contacts and wants to exchange only. Since you are new and nobody knows you or can verify you are genuine.

Please at least write some FRs on your contacts. OR better get a respectable senior to verify them for you.

There are many ways number collectors can cheat contacts of us, it is expectable that we are wary of exchanging or people who just want to exchange and not sharing their contacts. (Credit to Lawry please read his reply to one such exchanger.)


Sharing of Contacts not belonging to you

This is a very sensitive issue. Many contacts bros got are directly from FLs, if we share them (giving them out) to you please have the basic courtesy of asking us for permissions if you want to share with others. Please also give credits where it is due.

There is nothing more irritating to suddenly have FLs calling us and basically scolding us for passing their number out and thus getting them in trouble (i.e. being harassed, OKT hassling them etc).

You can safely assume that when we give you contacts we do not want those pass around without our knowledge!

Giving Thanks

When we reply to your pm and giving you contacts, please at the very least pm back with a thank you. I personally have bros just disappeared after I give out contacts, no word of thanks, no FRs, nothing.

Please reply with a thank you, at least we know you received our contacts, and our effort is appreciated.

Showing this site to FLs

<Deleted due to popular demand> If you want to know more about this point please check the previous posts. Thanks.

Numbers

Many newbies made this mistake. DO NOT post full numbers in the thread ever! If you die die have to well block off some of the numbers.

If you have half a brain you will know the reasons for this. This is a public forum, would you like to have people calling you in the middle of the night to ask you go to go toilet? Same is true for the FLs. Putting their numbers in the main will get her hundreds of harassing calls. So be considerate use the PM function.

----End of guide----

Thats it for now bros
