Hey guys,

I too am a relative newcomer to these boards and have expressed an opinion counter to that of the "old posters" and been belittled for it.

I have alot of experience in message boards such as these on other topics (music, PC help etc...) and find this to be extremely common as these boards age.

The good news is that if you keep a stiff upper lip and keep seeking the information you are looking for there is always someone around who has the same intention as you, the sharing of information. You just have to ignore the people who have nothing better to do than struggle for power on an internet message board.
