Yeah, seriously, I wasn't saying *you* since I haven't noticed you giving personal one-on-one flames to anyone in particular (yes, I'm stumped for ideas so I've been doing extensive surfing and post-reading, which is the cause of this thread, and I've noted the main ones, you weren't among them - I hadn't even caught the thread pointed out and linked to here until earlier).
And I need to qualify my argument anyway, since one of the supposed 'noobies' I was feeling sorry for turns out to be a member from back in 2002, an older member than even the people flaming and calling him a noobie. I guess time doesn't determine whether your a noob or not, it's whether you do something stupid or not - if you do you're a noob, if you don't you aren't. See? My mistake.
