Why are people so intolerant of newbs?
« on: July 31, 2009, 08:36:34 PM »
OK, you all probably know what I'm talking about. A newb desides that his first post shall be about a B-29 and what happens...? BOOM, every body who isn't newb and doesn't want the B-29 starts shouting "USE YOUR SEARCH", and "Why kill the kittens" and posts a picture of a kitten resting his chin on a gun, or "What do you have against kittens", and all that crap instead of actually helping them by telling them where the search is, how to use it, and giving them some tips about the search. They almost never give constructive criticizem either; only flaming.

And all I have to say is...Why?

Most of those posts get flamed not because they ask for the B-29, but because they are not written in recognizable English. :P

Oh i have. I pray for those poor souls. I just think we should go easy on newbs for about a month. That is a reasonable amount of time for them to learn the culture of our great and Utopian society.

And good for you Spikes.

Answer to the Original Post...
