Re: Can we stop yelling at the newbies

But the time it takes to wait for anwnser from some one that knows what they are talking about takes twice the time it takes to look it up on one of the websites that have years of knowledge and cases to back up what they are saying.
If you don't want to give the answer to the question, then don't reply, saves time and a bunch of useless emotions.
no fun in that
And to the newbies, if someone replies and yells at you for asking a stupid question, ignore them. They can't reply if you ignore them.
Even better go look stuff up for yourself and then you won't ask stupid questions and get yelled at
Everyone was new at one time, and everyone got tired of searching through websites (because it is easier and quicker to ask someone).
Damn straight i was a newbie at one time. I spent alot of time researching about dsm's before i ever even bought one, i know what the basic mod path was. When i had a quetion about something i tried to awnser it for myself because i know 90% theawnser to my quetion was only a few mouse clicks away.
Why not just find the awnsers for your self? A little reading and you could have the knowledge for yourself and have the satisfaction of learning something about your cars instead of going on the opinion of someoen who really may know nothing of dsm's. ( i have seen plenty of dumb/wrong responses to questions in this forum)
Plus, we're in a TR forum, come on people. It's not like we're at TBDSM. Not a lot of people in TR know about DSMs.
with a little reading they could! or do they not teach reading in school anymore?
In conclusion, if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all. Leave the yelling, bitching, and complaining to the people that do it best... women
in conclusion id like to tell all the whiny newbies if they would help them selves a little when they had a question about something they would get helpfule response.
