Ok, us admin types are in the background trying to figure out just what the heck as been going on with the board lately.
One of the items that came up is how un-friendly people have become around here.
New members come on this board looking for help, they ask a question. to people who have been in the game a long time it might seem like a no brainer, but guess what? for someone who is new to bikes, new to busa's etc they are asking the question because they don’t know and they want to know.
And what has been happening lately? all the perfect people jump in and start slamming someone for asking a question.
I don’t give a rats a$$ if the tre questions is asked 20 times a day. either answer the question or move on to a another thread.
You don’t need to try and convince everyone of your so called superior knowledge by belittling another human being.
Most of you numbskulls I could make you feel like complete idiots if I tried to explain certain aspects of computer technology, especially when it comes to encryption and encryption devices.
We all have our skill sets, NONE of us were born with the knowledge we posses, we all are where we are by asking questions. The arrogance of someone to make fun of someone else who is asking a serious question is astounding.
I just started a thread asking about reloading equipment. I know nothing about reloading, so I came here because hayabusa.org is the one stop shop of knowledge, we have soooooo many different individuals with soooo many varying skill sets that anyone could come to the org and ask just about any question they wanted and they could get an intelligent answer.
But what has been happening lately is we have been having an influx of new people, asking questions they don’t have an answer for and people (old members and new members alike) are coming off as arrogant elitist pricks making fun of their questions, I have one thing to say
KNOCK IT OFF!!!
The board is starting to come off as a bunch of arrogant pricks. That is NOT what has made this board great. Those of you that are constantly coming off as you know everything and everyone is below you, you are poisoning this board.
I am asking everyone to please stop making people feel like an a$$ when they ask a question. It is getting old.
My take on the current situation is the org needs to pull in the reigns a little and we should have a 0 tolerance BS policy for awhile.
Allow people to talk about any subject they wish, but once a person is disrespectful, comes off as arrogant and talks down to someone etc, that person will have posting privileges removed for a specified amount of time and their post will get whacked.
I don’t want to have to start doing that, we shouldn’t have to moderate to that level. But I also don’t like the way the board has been heading and we ALL need to turn it around and bring it back to the friendly and compassionate group of people that has made this board great, not an elitist group of arrogant pricks.
