[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 3011847, member: 36230"]Good point! You too have a point, but even the worst side of this forum pales in comparison to the damage done by misinformation and/or those willing to prey upon such people. Sometimes we are a tad hard on the new, but we're also human, and the endless claims of fantastical errors along with the nonsense that often comes with them is enough to turn even the most welcoming into a cynic. By and large, though, most of the heat given to newer members stems not from our collective "arrogance" or desire to be big meanies, but is in direct response to their actions/behavior. I realize the concept of [I]respect begetting respect[/I] is going the way of the Dodo in a world where feelings and raw emotion trump all, yet this doesn't mean we must blindly abide by and/or agree with the demands of those coming here not to learn but only seeking confirmation of and/or hoping to sell their magical windfall.[/QUOTE]
