[QUOTE=Kindaslow;17986714]Check the link I provided you and the information inside of it against this. Also, note the warning. Then, maybe you will see many things, including a warning about the SS/FG folks are a lively crowd.[/QUOTE

Thanks for the link, I've already read all of that and the other stickies as well. Again, I'm suggesting something entirely different - a standard response to questions (even if they're dumb) that points the newcomer to the stuff in the forum header. If you think that's too much trouble, it's nothing compare to the energy spent on tirades that don't really tell the guy anything, other than that he's not welcome. The way things are going, you're just maintaining a closed, little society. I guess that's okay if it's your goal. I enjoy reading about SS/FG stuff, but soon there won't be anything new to read. If you tell me I should be the welcoming committee, I wouldn't mind doing it when I happen to be on line. But it's not something one person should do. When I joined BF, a senior member took the trouble to welcome me. Just a formality, I know, but appreciated.
