There's a place for that, of course... when things are immediately obvious if you simply open your eyes. But this wasn't that kind of issue.
The guy then, KEPT, being a jerk. And no one else bothered to help, either.
After all that, I really appreciate our community here and how good we are to newcomers.
Give yourselves a hand!

A great community indeed. However; MR does SUFFER from a Posse mentality at times. Some people get attacked too much for stating a position that is not POPULAR on MR. Then the Posse moves in and berates said person. Then again, That happens on most Forum sites in one way or another.
