Sorry people, I've been at work all day and not had time to reply until now!
I don't believe I've made an arse of myself. I stand by some of things I said,I just didn't word them very well thats all.
I'm not criticising the site. And I'm not tarring all the newbies BUT there are a lot of individuals who have turned up for a quick fix. And as stated in some of the posts, an awful lot of people ask questions that could easily be answered with the search button in 5mns.
I appreciate that everyone has to start somewhere...I just find it infuriating that people are not willing to learn a few things instead of looking for a quick answer. I know I have learned a lot from here,some of it with questions and a lot of it with taking the time to do a bit of reading through past posts.
And Bronto, I don't understand exactly what your point is by raking up old posts. The first post you quoted is a question about the site itself,which isn't relevant to this and the second post is one I first made in the 'Who Are You' section when I first joined...which again is not relevant.I've never said I've not made my fair share of question posts.
Me personally, I reserve the need to post until I am truly stuck with something,but maybe thats just me. Some of the post questions border,quite frankly,on being ridiculous.
I was only expressing my own personal opinion! Whether people like it or not,or agree with me or not, I thought I was allowed to do that.....
