Hi Proggles :-3

Hey guys, I'm new to /prog/, but I can already tell that you have a great community here. I'm a professional troll who frequents Reddit, 9gag, /b/, and /g/. I've decided that I want to become a 1337 h@xx0r and learn to code, so I've come to practice my art on /prog/ and learn something in the process. ;-)

As you all know, it takes awhile to become accustomed to a particular board, and learn what memes incite the largest amount of rage. Since I'm new to programming, I'm wondering if you /prog/lodytes could teach me the ropes and get me started with my very own troll posts as soon as possible. I look forward to trolling you basement-dwelling losers for years to come!

xoxo

They're some of the best languages to learn and it's what some of the biggest websites use. After all, Facebook and Wikipedia wouldn't be written in them for nothing.

As for Visual Basic, I wouldn't use .NET (what current versions of Visual Basic is called), as it's for Internet stuff, and you want to use it for real desktop apps. For the web, you'll want to use the standard PHP and Javascript like I said.
