Re: HELP ME OUT
Wow, talk about some major age jealously in this thread! I'm giving you the chance to relive your childhood through me, what more do you want?

Re: HELP ME OUT
Thinking back a little bit when I was more of a newbe, maybe they did not know about the search option or possible they tried and did not get what they were looking for. Let the guys ask the questions, there is plenty of guys here with over 10,000 post who apparently have plenty of time to post, maybe they can help the newbe instead of insulting them and ridculing them, at least until they know how we interact here. I remember post that I responded to that was nothing to do and several other silly ones. I like helping the newbes, even if it is a stupid question.

Re: HELP ME OUT
Hey, im 18 and i got no problem using the search functions. Maybe thats because i havent reached the search rebelion phase yet, or maybe thats just me. But i dont think that age is a factor in desiding whether to use the search function or not. I know of many older people on this forum who neglect to use the search function in light of all their wisdom. I think the problem is that some people just need answers and dont have time to figure out how to phrase thier search terms.
Oh, and as some one stated earlier, there is some serious age jealousy going on here.

I agree.
You punks should just chill out. You'll grow up and be men soon enough, no need to be jealous. Some of us just have a few more battle scars and weather features. One day all you younguns will gain that after some hard work and a little time. So sit back and chill and lay off the jealousy. sheesh

Re: HELP ME OUT
The funny thing is using "search" is faster than having to wait for a response. That means those that ask before searching are just lazy bums.
agrv8r, the true number is 54 covering nearly 3 pages and most of those are telling lazy bums to use the search feature.

The other funny thing is that some people will post 5000 posts hammering reposters and not want to tickle out a reference to anything useful.
Then when some lazy bum wants to find out something, they have to mow through those 5000 posts to get any useful information!
Now, you can search "Why people don't search" and relive the truth over and over again!
(yeah, I'm being a smartass)

Whew, you almost earned yourself a BIG OLE' banning if it weren't for that last comment.  However, I agree with you. It's a good thing there's that "Advanced Search" thingy to cut out unwanted junk.

x2, I'm not too much of a noob, but I've given up using the search since it's 90% BS and 10% useful. Other than the sheer carwreck rubberneck factor for interest, this whole website seems to be going to hell in a handbasket ever since those new mods took over....
