I appreciate the call to arms, Charles. Noobs that stick around and don’t piss in the pool (much) can benefit from the vets, both in education and their generosity. Although I’m am not an obsessive poster, I spin through the forums on a daily basis and comment/contribute occasionally. I feel a tremendous amount of gratitude for the vets. When given the opportunity, I’ve done my best to be generous in return. I’ve focused my generosity on some vets over my time here. But I also feel like it is important for the not-so-noobs to take some of the burden off the vets and also focus on the noobs coming in behind us. Something about your post feels out-of-sorts to me. I try to focus my generosity with gratitude for the BOTL culture. Sure, there is a bit of salty banter that goes back and forth, but it’s the culture that keeps me coming back. This post feels more like d1ck-swinging. Are you getting where I’m coming from? If you really want to pound a vet, I’d be happy to help if you put your d1ck away, first.
