What I do care about are the mature articulate posters who don't mind putting in the work before asking for something. And if keeping a quality signal to noise ratio on this forum requires dumbasses getting trolled, then so be it. They all end up getting their answers in the end anyway.
You can't be touchy about getting trolled a bit and then call the rest of the forum touchy for getting pissed at lazy noobs. It's a two way street. If boneheads expect us to tolerate their antics and give them some info, they're gonna have to tolerate getting razzed a bit and maybe doing some research of their own.
^^^ Exactly what I was thinking. It just seems many people come here looking for immediate answers, when they can barely formulate an intelligible question. It's obvious when someone who has done research posts an intelligent question and it's more obvious when someone who didn't do research ask basic and dumb questions. Ie: is this computer good for producing dubstep. You might as well ask if you should use lazers in your songs. Something like this kinda gets to me and I'm pretty new to the site, so I know it's gotta piss off the vets of the site.
Don't take this the wrong way or think I'm starting a fan club, but I've seen SunkLo post humurous banter on posts like these, but when it comes to a serious question that hasn't been answered 100 times, he gives a very intelligent answer and he knows his stuff and is always willingto offer help to those who aren't lazy. When I first got on the site I was like wtf, but then I got it. It's more about respect. If you've been coming to a forum for years and every year/month lazy noobs ask the same questions, it's going to be really frustrating for the vets to learn something new and spread knowledge when there are minimal intelligent xonversations being had. I mean how many times in the past 6 months has someone created a new post about 'how can I make my kicks better'... Either learn muy thai or watch one of the 2.000 youtube video tutorials and experiment until it works. Don't ask what to do, do it, try it, experiment with it, make it work, make your money
