Spend some time here getting to know people and letting us get to know you and earn your place and we will care. Until then, boo hoo.

I will give you a perfect example of why we are the way we are. There is this little cigar forum called CigarLive. People there let folks just walk in off the street, with zero credibility, and have all the rights and respect that folks who have put in the time to earn it have. Well, just this past week a well known scammer, using a new name, who promised he wasn't a scammer, took them for a shit ton of cigars. Now, the forum owner and all his little fanbois are trying to justify their own stupidity. Well, that won't happen here. Why? Because we hold your feet to the fire until you prove yourself. If that gets you all butt hurt, to bad. I am sure you can find the door.
Shag,

You seem to have a history of disrespecting people with your rants. Let me help you out here. I am guessing you were the kid in the corner at school that was constantly picked on and have now found solace sitting behind a monitor and keyboard saying whatever you want without having to worry about getting your ass kicked. I can respect that as you probably have no other choice for dealing with people. For all I know you could be a swell guy outside of your mom's basement. However, no one will ever know this until you learn tact. Some of your post's are filled with good information, but it is all lost when you fill it with useless dribble that mirrors a five year old that just learned a dirty word and continually uses it to impress people.

Take your reply (above ) to me. If you take out: "golly gee, Adam's Housecat's butthole, we don't care, boo hoo, If that gets you all butt hurt, to bad, and I am sure you can find the door" then it sounds like a legitimate statement. The example you gave was solid. However, the way you chose to write it portrays someone lacking confidence trying way to hard to sound tough.

It doesn't matter how many posts you have or how long ago you joined, until you learn to communicate effectively it is impossible to take you seriously. If you really want to instill
knowledge and utilize your seniority, try mentoring people. No one knows everything and i am sure you do have information that someone could use.
