I'm afraid I have not missed the point of this thread, you seem to have missed the point of my post.

Care to specify where I like to harass people?

Especially noobs on this site? I have no idea about you but I have had MULTIPLE pms on this site strictly asking for help. This is time I gladly take out of my day to give lessons, explain principles, call/text when they need help wiring or getting amps or alternators wired, multiple batteries, enclosure specs, good deals on specific equipment and personal firsthand technical knowledge.

But if the question is "whats the best amp?" And you can look right now and find three threads with the exact same title with no thought to search, research, or put a careful and articulate question. There are a million factors to consider not including personal preference which is probably one of the largest factors when choosing equipment.

Person A does not take the time to provide any specific information to his question, or a quick search to ensure has already been covered but is expecting Person B to take the time to answer. Seems one sided.

And yes, I have used the search button. With good results. It is not the best but it is a search engine and you have to phrase correctly. Not to mention the ability to specify sections, dates, keywords, and posters.

And the search bar isn't the only way to search. Got a general question? Take 60 seconds and browse the general section. Have a question on wiring...look under the electrical section and take a very similar 60 seconds.

I am more than willing to spend time helping, but not if the person isn't willing to spend time either. Learning is not only the teachers responsibility. The responsibility is shared. And if you can't understand that I guess you will continue missing my point.

That wasn't directly to you.

We may not agree in music tastes but goddamn do you know how to make a point and explain yourself....

Lol, I was just thinking the exact same thing, musically we HATE each other but on other subjects we get each other, even when we don't get each other :cheers:

only thing I've noticed is the "use the search" instead of giving a simple reply

i'm just venting and looking from a non mods view. i try to look at things from both sides

Mods are people too! LOL

My opinion: If you dont know what the hell your talking about, well shut the fuck up. Simple concept and less problems that way.

[corteznewbie]

you guys dont get the point if you dont like what we have to say the ignore the thread and i do know what i'm talken about and i never said mods werent people so get off ya high horse. its getting to the point that i wanna leave smd and find a better forum. but quit putten words in my mouth i never said or implied

[corteznewbie]

its to all the rude ass people on here. not just one person. the name calling and wut not. not every one here has all the knowledge or even the money that most of the other members here have. i my self joined so i could learn more about car audio. boiler ask adam i'm a laid back kind of guy. i just dont see where the rudeness is needed. but at the same time i understand when sum one straight up asks a dumb question. basicly just tired of the rudeness

[Twistedchild420]

REAL know-it-alls are helpful.....(because they literally know it all) The worst is I-think-I-Know-it alls......I see them fucking up a lot.....giving false info.....that's why if i don't know.....i shut the fuck up and read! lol

[corteznewbie]

twisted believe it or not i try to learn from you and your vids. you know more than i do so does boiler i just wanna better my self when it comes to car audio. so for in my town people were talken shit bout my set up. til they heard it. if it wasnt for you guys here i wouldnt of learned what i did and shut their mouths
