Duplicate fuel receipt

[Bunk]

Um, Admin, you've quoted Faq's post with the winkers still in there. I think you deserve an infraction

If you're giving infractions for quotation, you need some self-punishment, it seems.

I didn't give an infraction for the quotation though. I said I almost did but it would seem unfair.

No, it's because he's a winker

Infraction given I nearly gave one to NLUK as well for quoting you but I thought that would be a bit harsh.

Eh? I didn't quote the winker did I??? Ooops.

IMO all my infractions are a bit harsh

Not that I saw. But maybe all the winking has made me go blind.

My only recent experience as a till operator is as a volunteer at a local wildlife place but, like me, I doubt they'd know how to issue a 2nd receipt anyway. This request sounds like nonsense.

Ah, the famous CUK continuity of moderation that we all know and love - one moderator leaves the smilie and posts in the thread, another doesn't.

And an hour later, a third moderator comes along...

Yes. Yes, I'm his Dad. That's right. I happen to hang around the same forums. What an imbecilic thing to say.

I've been a member here for, I don't know, 2 months or so, and it seems to me that 90%+ of the questions that get asked are met with the sort of response you made. Now, I understand that it gets tiresome seeing the same questions which seem, to you and other "old hands" to be very basic, but the general attitude that people take to these new questions is, frankly, appalling.

It doesn't help the poster, it doesn't help the forum, it doesn't help the overall image of the forum (I've spoken to several contractors recently who say they won't partake in the forums here because of the general levels of rudeness) and it doesn't help you - it just wastes your time responding. So why not just shrug your shoulder, mutter "what a dickhead newbie" to yourself and move on. Why waste your time and theirs responding? I just don't get what you or they or anyone stands to gain.

Everybody had to start out once, and nobody knew all the answers without some help and hand holding. I realise, of course, that many of the answers can be found using Google, or reading the guides on this site and others. But, again, why not just move on instead of berating the poster?

Plus, it just makes you look like a total winker Of course, there are many worse than you - you just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time when I finally felt the need to speak up.

While I cannot but agree with the underlying sentiments of your post, may I courteously draw your attention to: http://forums.contractoruk.com/busin...al-forums.html
