So, I just read 100+ forum posts and looked at the profile of each author. What I've found is that about 85% of the original posts can be answered by searching the forums, reading the articles, or (SHOCK!) researching via a search engine.

Of that 85%, more than half are simply ridiculous questions that, had the author researched as mentioned above, they would have found this out for themselves.

However, the real shock is the answer posts. With extremely rare exception, the answering authors are no more intelligent, experienced, or well-researched than the original poster seems to be.

Bottom line, in my humble opinion, is that if you can't be bothered to look for an answer before you pose a question to others, and/or if you don't know what the hell your talking about when you answer a post....quit spamming up the forums with RIDICULOUS POSTS!

It only makes it that much more difficult and frustrating for those of us who actually read & study before opening our mouths when we have to sift through your nonsense.

Thank you & have a nice day! :)
