[QUOTE="Oursapoil, post: 207890, member: 33266"] We were all there one day as well indeed, at least almost all of us as I can't recall if there were any T forum back when I started, considering that the few hours I had left on my AOL CD were not enough to wait for each search page to load (hence the grumpy old man...). This said, I believe the first posts from a new comer say more about his/her character and upbringing than how long they had Ts or how familiar they are with a forum platform..... If they do not behave like this on Tinder because it wouldn't get them any love, they shouldn't behave like this on the forum ;) I will continue to be nice and help where my limited expertise could be useful but will stop making an effort towards people not making the slightest one. Now as I deal with a 10 years old on a daily base, I would totally accept this behavior from any child and would go out of my way for them but grown ups are not longer getting a pass :p [/QUOTE]
