I too did not like the OP's position on this. Hey look, there are all kinds of people out there, some need help and some will offer help. Sometimes those offering do come across as know it alls and can put off the person needing help. Sometimes it goes the other way.
I do not offer up help generally but I have and I am very careful as to how I do this. Being polite and humble will get you a long way in this world.
And then there is this. I have been trailering for more than 30 years now and I am pretty good at it. I have experienced something that some of you might relate to. I can back into spots 20 times in a row without any trouble but on the 21st time, it is like I forgot how to do even the basics. It doesn't have to be a tough spot either. Right becomes left, angles escape me and centering on the pad is almost impossible until I retain my concentration. If someone were to come up to me with a "superiority attitude" and offer help I would mostly decline. I do know what I am doing. Every person is different, read the situations as unique and tread lightly.
