Hmmmm....Mickey the Nervous Newbie seems to have disappeared after his initial post...

That's a bit sad.

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?

Very well put. Thank you.
