Why is it when someone asks a simple question, and because brucie doesn't
like what the poster is asking about, it turns into a badgering affair?
"bender" asked a simple question as to why his menu wasn't working properly.
"brucie" turns around and chastises "bender" for using javascript and worse,
a drop down menu.
Then others chime in and badger "bender" even more.
This is not about helping someone, this is a personal vendetta about
personal dislikes which has no business in the thread.
Then brucie makes a comment about how 100 million people have their JS
turned off anyway.
I'd say that 95% of users don't even know how to turn it off.
Spend some time in 24hoursupport.helpdesk and you'll find out quickly just
how dumb and lazy people are.
Many of the questions asked can be answered by the user simply by clicking
on the menu bar and they won't even do that much.
"Duh, how do I set up a second mail account on my OE?"
"Duh, how did you do the first one?"
And as I have found over the years in various groups, there is always a
little cliche of "regulars" who always seem to say, if you're gonna use this
group, you do what we say or get the hell out.
Apparently, there are a few in this group with that same mentality.
Nobody put you in charge. You are here as a volunteer just as any poster is.
If you can't be helpful, say so.
Don't be tellin people they can't do this or that when 10,000 sites are
already doing it.
This is a discussion forum, not your personal badgering playground.
