Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1834672, member: 112"]Just so you know, BUUncirculated was trying to help you, just like I was - not derail your threads. Also, I'm one of those geezers, just like he is. Nonetheless, this forum is for everybody, young and old. And a great many of the old spend a great deal of time trying to help the young. And we get some who are very young, I think the youngest member we ever had was 5. And there are currently a great many teenagers who are members. And a large number in their 20's. What you have to realize is that while what is posted may not seem like help, it is. But it is often said with a brutal honesty so it doesn't seem like it is. I'm one of those brutally honest people myself, it's the only way I know how to be. And yes I am that way in person too. But I will spend years trying to help a single person and teach them about this hobby. I have done it many times, with both young and old. There was one young boy that I started teaching when he was only 8. Eventually he even became a moderator of this forum. I continued until he was into his 20's, he got married, and went on with his life. He got to the point where he was teaching people. That's what makes it all worthwhile <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
