Hi,

Nice to have you here. I don't think you need good computer skills to be a good baiter. It's more a battle of wits than anything. Read around and try stuff. You'll get the hang of it.

Telling them to Go Fu88k themselves might be entertaining, but it won't do much to them. I imagine they get that a lot.

Inquiring minds now want to know: are you really really old or very very young?

Posted: Mon Nov 26, 2007 6:37 pm

Don't worry anzac, there are one or two of us over the age of 21 Very Happy

, and others who have nothing better to do in retirement.

I'm no great computer expert but have learned what I need to know to make use of the fun toys here. Peole will guide you in detail what you need to know, and if you get a mentor you can use them as your personal tutor.

If you want to send out insults, join the mass baiting thread and get a few death threats back. We are always very proud when we get them, and like to show them off, like mine below.

"ANZAC" suggests to me that he is older - I doubt if too many "under 18's" today know (or care) what ANZAC means.

Yes indeed, since I am under 18 myself Laughing

Welcome on the Eater, I can assure you that once you start baiting you will see that techy skills are overrated. Sure, they help, but they are not needed to give these mugus a good run of the mill (again, I would be a good example Laughing

)

Saying you are computer illiterate does not sound like self praise in my book Laughing

If you would like some help getting started, the mentor thread would be a good place to start:

clicky

Just post in that thread asking for a mentor and our ever lovely Cherrie will sort you out. Please give our moderator a few days and check your PMs.

voice of reason are you a SHERMAN!!!! Very Happy

Hell, I'm only 16, started when I was 15. I don't think age matters at all here. You can be whatever you want while scambaiting, the scammers wont care in the slightest.

Welcome!

So long as your computer skills are adequate enough to bait safely you will be fine. To be honest it is more a case of using common sense rather than having knowledge of computers when it comes to safe baiting. Sign up for a mentor they will see you right.
