I guess after having just read from some of the linked threads, Ive missed the fact that some folk in here seem to enjoy giving patronizing/humiliating/sarcastic replies to earnestly asked questions. Then act suprised and indignant when the person who asked the question registers his/her displeasure with being publically belittled. Is this forum only for people who already know everything? If thats the case, why have the forum? Are the less electrically educated mortals on this forum not allowed to better their understandings by asking questions and receiving CONSIDERATE replies from those who know more? Apparently not everyone in here thinks so, judging by some of what Ive read in just a few moments time.
Forgive me. I realize that Im probly sticking my nose where it doesnt belong. I just happened to stumble upon this thread and felt compelled to register my reaction to some of what I read. I also need to qualify that in my short membership so far, Ive encountered many good, knowledgable folk who seemed happy to help me out with my questions in a very civil, reasonable and non-demeaning way. Ive only personally encountered one person who seemed to believe that the only way to elevate himself was to put down another.
