Yes one of the keys here is that the forum is relied upon as another source for info. Frustrated newcomers are not always going to say the right things and it can piss some of the long time people off. It's understandable but the thing here is that some of these people will end up being great customers if given a chance. This will not happen if they are insulted and called idiots and worse. We need give them a chance to cool down and show them how they come across without the insults. It can be frustrating on both sides. I've posted when I probably should not have but not to the degree that happened here. It's frustration, I know, but you really have to just walk away sometimes and realize you taking it out on someone for stuff that may have been caused by people other than them. A build up of things. I'd love to know if the post I did was the reason that kdf did what he did or was it something I did before and didn't know it. I know he does a lot, but most people don't know that. I was never insulting him, just the fact he was very harsh with the OP and out of line. If I have done something else to him I would like the chance to make it right.
