Seems like what i've said has stirred some shit here.

Yes i agree that everyone starts off as a newbie.
But that is no excuse not to read 500pages of info,tips and advices.
I started out going to Batam alone and I read every single page to prep up for it.

I started out by joining seniors like Sniper69 and Quint7 to trips to Tanjung Pinang.
Yes i paid my school fees for their help and assistance.
Then i wised up and realised I could go cheaper on my own and which i did.

Then i wanted to try Batam but didn't know who to ask.
I read every single post here and trawlled the internet for more info.
Gathered with what i knew, i hit for Batam and know alot of places now after a few trips.

It is not impossible for a newbie to read 500pages and it is certainly very possible to have fun with the amount of info posted within the 500pages while avoiding getting Robert. If a newbie decides to be lazy, he better be ready for some flak.

As for the rest of the newbies, if u want my assistance, standby $48 for my ferry ticket and PM me for more info.
