Are we so jaded that we have forgotten when we were in those positions? I can't believe how condescending this thread is. The fact that so many of you think of your fellow community members as idiots is really disheartening. Apparently you don't remember when you were new here, or anywhere else on the internet. Or when you were blinded by hidden motive, et. al. You just blanket the term "idiot" on all these people? That's horribly cruel. Attacking someone's character never fixes anything, including the character. Ignoring someone is always better than insulting them. I've seen it suggested in this thread that we are the ones responsible for cleaning up the forums. That we are somehow the people who can "read between the lines" of the forum rules and enforce them ourselves, and that we need to turn everyone into a good member. If you're like that, I believe you're feeling a little too entitled. Why feel so entitled that you have a genuine desire to just rail on people and insult them? Is that truly what we want to accomplish here? If we didn't have this kind of an attitude around here, I imagine we'd easily tell the difference between "nice guy" and "entitled forum cop", the latter of which, funny enough, often breaks the rules. tl;dr I guess I just accused people of elitism.
