I'm just completely blown away by how quickly these people are to try just make you feel like an asshole when you are trying to contribute. I've been on many many forums as a user and a moderator and no matter how big or popular a forum is they always welcome new members and promote a feeling of community among people who share similar interests. And believe me I'm not saying this forums is big or popular, it's quite the opposite actually which makes it harder to believe how quick some users are to go out of their way to put down a new member.
It's almost like some members get off on ganging up on the new guy or something. The overall vibe I'm getting from this place is people trying to look cool on the internet, and thats cool you know you can do whatever you want you're not offending anyone but wow it really blows me away how these people get off on "picking on noobs" if you will. I think it's hilarious and the only good thing about is that it lets you know upfront that you don't want to be a part of this "community".
EDIT: I get I'm expecting too much I guess.
