That we've been getting a rash of generic chainsaw questions on the milling forum lately with the chainsaw forum just a few lines down the page?

Speaking as a relative New Guy around here, as you first scroll down the list of forums you hit the part where the section changes to the vendor forums and figure that's the end of the user discussion forums. The first couple of times here I did not notice that there were equipment forums below the vendor forums.
Some of the posts about chainsaw info here in the milling forum have been from newer users. Maybe this is why?

Maybe...............No trash talk.

. . . but you certainly get a few grumpy fellows who are put out by newbie behaviors (not using the search function, asking simplistic questions, etc).
In principle I agree - we are not curing cancer, but we are dealing with potentially lethal machines. What I think we all should think about is;
- we were all newbies once - I have a good laugh at some of my newbie posts.
- how can anyone, let alone newbies, find anything using the search function in amongst all that noise?
- The simplicity of the question depends on who is asking. I get asked the simplest nuclear physics questions all the time but it doesn't take too much effort to treat everyone with basic respect.
- It is possible that some grumpy or unhelpful response to a simplistic question led someone to do something that damaged a machine or maybe even an injury.
BobL, there ya go, making sense again.
Couldn't agree more.
I better shut up then - my wife might find out and then I couldn't claim the usual "stupid" defence!
iv been on the site for a little while now and just recently noticed that there was a saw forum. sorry for the inconvenience guys. i scrolled down to where i saw venders and thought to myself that there would be no more information past that
