I Have been lurking on Avsim since the days of Compuserve and have posted little if at all. I agree with you 100%. I feel genuinely sorry for the newbe that just needs simple advice, but you can't blame them for not wanting to ever come back. If he isn't being accused of being a troll he's being told how many post he has contributed, and, if not in a high enough number, basically is being told to hit the road. There are some members that are genuinely Great people here and really enjoy helping people. But......... It really is no wonder the Hobby, Sport, Genre is starting to die out. I believe I will get accused and made fun of for this but,,,,,,, I'm Just Sayin.
