<p>[QUOTE="TommyP, post: 2652120, member: 80814"]Understood and makes sense to a point. I'm guilty of asking stupid questions as are many others but sometimes it's a 'non snarky' answer that generates the most thought versus having to defend one self from the APPARENT attack. I like negative when it comes to something specific asked about a particular coin's aspects. That said though, it casts a shadow over the negative poster's advice and tends to be ignored altogether thus generating continued 'snarkiness' from the original poster. Sometimes I think that the supposed 'wiser and more knowledgable' (if you will) posters ought to go to their respective country clubs and stay away from the internet forums where they can be only around other like minded country clubbers. Their 'advice' only comes off as negativity most of the time so I don't know why they post to begin with. Ego probably has a lot to do with it I suppose. I've seen other forums where the traffic is more of 'everything' but friendlier overall (at least they appear that way) and I do gravitate there when the snarkiness gets to me but you're right, much of it has to do with repetition and something having been answered a hundred times prior. It gets aggravating on both sides I'm sure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
