I agree with ya there old semperfi to an extent. I know I havent been here too aweful long, but its a GREAT place and a lot of fine people in here and they do know there "stuff"! I know all my questions and wonderings have been answered better then going to a gunsmith and trying to get answers. My hat is off to all you guys in here for all the valuable information I have gotten and probably could not have gotten anywhere else!
This forum is a great place and alot of topics are covered here. And each "room"/place there is a time for all per say.
But I do know the people in here that I have asked and shared posts/comment and what not have been noting short of exellent! Again, my hats off to most everyone in here!

This is a great place with a lot of great people. Lately I have kind of felt like I've been here too long and I need to move on because you start to see a lot of the same questions over and over. This may be why you have seen instances of people posting brief and sometimes less than courteous replies... it gets very tiring answering the same question over and over when typing two words into a Google search would have answered the question.

I'm not saying that you posted a question you shouldn't have. I don't know of any instance you're referring to at all. It just happens when you've been around for a while.

I know what you mean.

For me, it just means that I don't get on here as often. A year ago, I spent a couple hours on here daily. Now, it's down to a few hours per week (some weeks not at all). If it gets repetitive, I just leave for a while. When I come back, there is always something new.

i am probably one of those who will ask dumb questions I am new to this forum, however I have been a electrician for forty years, and get a lot of questions and have learned it is very easy to loose a friend or a novice if I do not answer them with respect and paitence

have a good day
