Hello hugeguy,
Turnbull isn't rude. He's one of the most polite people in this forum.
I guess what he wanted to tell you as subtly as possible was that you're welcome on this board.
Perhaps you could check out what these forums and threads are all about. Some threads are meant for discussions (like this one), others are meant for fun, guessing games, etc., like the Dialogue Game thread.
Don't worry, keep on posting, join the discussions. Perhaps spend a thought where to post your what.

Oh, and maybe the Godfather Novel forum could be interesting for you:
