I have to agree. It's one thing to be helpful to newbies asking for help, but the line has to be drawn somewhere. Complete disregard for reading rules or getting a feel for an environment is something that will get you flamed. This is a fact of the internet. If you haven't learned this by now, it's high time you did. You don't kiss the ass of every bum on the street who begs you for money, so why do so online? Sincerity overrides immaturity and greed.
If I were to do the same as these people and get flamed for it, I would feel I deserved it and go back to read the rules. It has happened to me before in usenet (ie, making requests in binary groups). I felt bad after the flames, but those flaming me were right. This is our home on the net. In our real homes, the bums who do the begging do so on the streets - not in our living rooms. Whilst this forum is open to the public, unlike our living rooms, there are still rules here. It's hardly asking too much to read said rules. If one chooses to ignore the words IMPORTANT - READ ME FIRST, then they should be prepared for the grilling that follows. Every act has a consequence. |

You get assholes on the street, you get assholes on the forums.
Just do what you do with the bums on the street - ignore them. I'm not stating that speedo20012001 is an asshole, in fact I'm not excatly sure what he has done to feel the wrath of this thread around his neck. He's just new here, he made a mistake, we all make mistakes from time to time. It's the one's who continue to make the mistakes (e.g. Superfrog9/MarzAttackz) that should be dealt with, not the new guy. There's far too many hassles, arguing, bitching and fighting in real life. I like coming here to escape back to my childhood years when the Amiga ruled and all I ever talked was Amiga ! It would also be nice to escape from the crappy things we get everyday. |
