O.T.

15 posts on this board is way too soon to be fed up. If it is the RATS will devour you.

What's an appropriate number of posts before someone can be fed up? All the post count shows is how prolific you are at posting.

And how much you're willing to contribute, to a certain degree.

Dumb posts are dumb posts, and don't usually take the time to respond, and I agree that one "veteran" simply posting something along the lines of "this has already been discussed...look at old threads" should suffice (rather than negative attacks).

However, when a "newbie": (1) starts a thread which asks a question, (2) gets correct responses from numerous different "veterans", AND (3) then proceeds to argue that all us veterans are wrong (or simply refuses to believe we are right)...then this "veteran" becomes agitated.

If you do not like the site, do not come to the site. One skill of being good at anything, is knowing who to listen to and who to ignore. If you are turned off by certain people, do not pay them much mind. Not everyone is going to say things you like or respect. That is the case here and that is the case when you umpire.

Lighten up my man. It will be alright.
