... Look. I try to help when I can but I'm no Linux wizard. Those guys can do a lot more than I can and *I'm* at the point where I'm about to start lurking. I'm about as easy going as they come but you guys need to understand... try going through every problem thread (which seems to be all of them these days) and imagine you're trying to solve them. Then look at all the duplicates, etc. I realize you think people are being snotty or elitist, but you'd see none of that if there weren't duplicates... and lots of them.

I also completely agree with making people feel welcome... but a lot of the behaviour I've seen on here lately is the equivalent of walking into someone's house without wiping the mud off your feet first. How well d'ya think you'll be received?
