HelpThanks so much
in reply to a message by Megan
for not just addressing me specifically. Gotta love the cowardice.
*Eyeroll*
The problem is that with a board set up this way, threads get bumped lower everytime somebody makes a new post. When a post that has already been discussed gets reposted like this, it wastes space and pushes other legitimate ones down. Anyone who has been here more than a day will know to search before posting about something like this that has most likely already had a thread started. We all do it, and the sooner the newbie learns to do it, the better off we'll be. It's not like I snapped or was rude, I just pointed out that we have a search engine. How this makes me an unhappy, pitiable person, I don't know, but you're awfully rude and cowardly for saying so without doing it as a reply to me specifically or even backing up or explaining why you think so.
I could understand it if we were snippy or rude, but we aren't. We're a big board and people join and leave regularly. We sort of self-police although there are designated mods to help. If you have a problem with this, say so to those you have the problem with instead of making general, rude complaints. How anyone could be offended at a system set up to help newbies learn the rules quickly, I don't understand. If you think it's so horrible that we gently correct people, then this isn't the place for you. We're not much for free-for-alls.
