In fact I have had a fairly known forum about computer/technology for a couple years. I know the rounds. I realize you have to search. But sometimes you start new threads, that's why a forum is what it is. Next time I think about posting a topic I will look for it first and not post anything. I guess it's up to the "senior" members to decide which threads are acceptable and which are not. As for discussion of scaring rookies away, well I think that just happened.

Actually, it's been an interesting occurrence. I don't recall as many "harsh" responses to rookie posts in the past as I have this year. Certainly there weren't in 2002, or I would have just dumped such an elitist group. I would be shocked to hear some of these responses or attitudes at a competition. Helping rookies learn how to do things properly is professional, doing it without an attitude is gracious. It is incidents like this that should make us reflect, "How much do we truly live GP, and how much do we just use it when it's convenient?"
