I find it irritating that people that post here, get the usual responses, with a little of the normal side tracking, and then come back on line to criticize the answers received! I think it is rude and most certainly arrogant to judge the responses received. If that person is so good why are they asking? Kinda like drowning and then complaining about the rope tossed to them.Have others noticed this or am I just a grump?

I think a lot of the posters here have their heart set on doing it one way and when they don't get confirmation, it upsets them.the old "can I tow my 40 ft 5er with my S-10 pickup?"see new post Dry weight dilemma.bumpy

You might log how many responses give evidence that the person responding hasn't read or understand the post they are responding to. And you might note how often answers on page 2-3-4 are now completely off topic. God bless anyone taking time to be helpful. I'm not sure if it's trolling or responses irrelevant to the topic that irritate me more.

Not to be outdone by the people who respond to a legitimate post in a condescending tone. Rude is rude regardless.

No more irritating than the people who don't bother to read either the OP or the replies and then post some irrelevant drivel or argumentative reply and then get really offended when someone points it out.

Criticizing anything is fraught with danger on here. It's too easy to kill the messenger.

If you want a real hoot, ask a simple question in the area of your own expertise, and just read and laugh at the complete garbage that comes back. After doing that, you will realize the actual value of what is posted here. The real talent comes in sorting the valid advise out of the opinions of would be experts that don't have a clue.

speaking of a waste of space, why does the first responder in a thread quote the op's entire post? Like, there's any question about who you're replying to?

That bugs the heck out of me too.

But what really chaps me is when I post the correct answer and the debate continues!!! :)

Well if nothing else this thread is good for an early AM laugh.

It's good to know some still have a sense of humor.

I think that needs to be debated. Oh notice also I included the entire quote. I'm right! Should you all want to debate that too. :)

The reason that I have done it is that a lot of times you plan on being the first person to reply and by the time you enter your reply 5 others have posted befor you making your reply appear to be a response to the third or fourth person that replied instead of the OP.
