its pretty dependent on what you mean by "leave the kid alone"
seems like there is another kid that wishes to be left alone too..
==> interesting
dun even have fullstop :bsmilie:
...and what do you do when you feel irritated?
"There are other threads on this topic, read them before asking." "Please Google it you ask".
True that nothing is new under the sun and we can always google for information...but that defeats the point of having a forum, right? (And what fun is there in digging up a thread that ended 15 years ago?)
If not, everyone will just go RTFM; or go ask XMM whether they know the answer or not, instead of logging in to ClubSnap!
In the end, it boils down to what league you want Clubsnap to be in. Do you see Clubsnap as a serious discussion forum, or as a toddler playgroup?
Ok, let's imagine you're at college/university studying literature. And half of the class whines because they didn't bother to learn how to read and write before joining.
And, when pointed out that basic literacy is to be expected at a university, they start complaining about "elitism".
Or you're going to a workshop on image processing, but serious discussions never materialize because 50% of the participants demand a step-by-step explanation on the concepts of addition and multiplications.
Maybe such people should take their primary school education first.
