I don't see how re-posting a thread that was previously locked helps mitsu tech at all. Yes, Stephan is a thread nazi but look at the bullshit he has to deal with. It was closed, so move along and drop the subject. I think it might be time to start banning people from Mitsu Tech.
I agree that the attitudes need to change. We all need to be more helpful and supportive of ALL members, new and old. However, a few posts here and there off-subject and joking keep us interested and build a friendship. Learn to take a joke, let things roll of your back.
If you have a problem with one member specifically, contact him/her how you would in the real world. Would you go up to him in front of a crowd and call him out? NO, so why do it on the internet? Send a pm, make a phone call....don't post a thread.
