Then instead of them sticking it out they leave and stay clueless in some case’s.

Like Rick says, nowadays we usually only go after Spammers. We delete inflammatory posts, & it's only rarely that we ban members, unless they keep on with their nonsense. Also, if they follow our instructions, they wouldn't stay clueless. "Sticking it out," as you say, is an important ingredient to survival. On the flip side, posters like "theFreakinBear, & others of his ilk, are NOT welcome here. We don't apologize for that.

To be honest, I don't remember, & since you've deleted those early posts I've no way of verifying what you just told me. However, based on the posts of the other members in response to your "intro," you were treated very well.

I really hope this was a typo.

I know some of you get tired of the same old question and you think people need to use the search function more, but you need to realize that this may be somebody first internet forum and don’t know the in’s and out of a site like this. I had been using the internet since 99 and this was first time that I ventured onto an internet forum and there are thing you need to learn about site like this.

That is exactly why we attempt to direct them on how to do it. Some are too sensitive to accept the least amount of instruction. If you know how to change people via the internet, please instruct us & we'll start using it.

In my opinion the topic was fine as long as somebody did actually try and answer the question. When my post got deleted I decided that this wasn’t the type of site that I wanted to contribute a lot too. I then decided finish what you started and went about deleting the rest of my post. Was it petty and childish yeah but we all have our bad days.

I respect your honesty on this, thank you.

HUH?

How have we used the rules to keep you off of this site? All we would have to do is ban you, which we haven't done. However, since we started deleting the problem parts of posts, we've found that, for the most part, we don't even have to do that. I'd of thought you would surely see the wisdom in that.

Hmmm, for a guy who says he doesn't post much, you've posted quite a bit, actually.

Merry Christmas anyway.
