Trying my best to keep "on topic" and not "hijack" anyone's thread (been threatened that I'll be sleeping with the fishes by the mods if I don't behave... )
Seeing this also means your thread was just moved to the top and that of course means that more people will see you thread,which in turns means that more people with logical answers will answer your thread
If you choose to participate in a public forum like this one, you have to develop a thick skin and remember the annonimity of the Internet. People will say and do things that they would never have the guts to say or do face to face when they're hiding in safety behind the screen name and computer.

So in closing,a little isn't such a bad thing
Excellent angle! See what happens when you put great minds together.
I agree - however..... the search engine and the CF archive DO WORK!!! Plus the vast majority of repeat questions have been discussed and answered on page 2 or 3 - doesn't anyone ever look beyond Page 1???
I post on several dozen PHP forums and I always search FIRST - especially a Google search with "site:forums.corvetteforum.com" qualifier than search the site - and THEN ask the question.
I understand what your point is - however the same old questions ad nauseum is eventually quite tiresome especially when the answers are usually on page 2 or 3.

Not true, if you post a thread asking for someone opinion then you better be able to take a few negative opinion since you did ask for thier opinion.
Also I guess to many people follow that rule and that is why we see so many overweight girls in crop top and hip hugger. Also along with so many brutal singers trying out for American IdoI when they can't sing but it is entertaining.
BTW I am planning to put this on the vette, remember only say nice things
I see a difference in a Newbie asking a question......vs. someone with multipile stars by their name asking a question thats been asked before.
Rarely have I saw a newbie get flamed for asking an old question......
Additionally, I think its part of the fabric of a Public Forum for people to express their opinion regardless of their input......if they want to say so be it and move on. Interesting topic....Thanks for posting.

Zilla - that is a mighty nice looking piece of crap on the back of your sportscar. Did you steal that ironing board from the store or did someone feel sorry for you and let you take it off the pile of garbage? Is that nice enough?
I stand by my origninal comment, some of the folks around here need to and stop taking this stuff so seriously. Like Harry Truman said - "If you can't stand the heat in the kitchen - get out!"
