That's the point of asking for clarification on the points made in another thread. It indicates you've read it (for some reason) and have a legit question about it. Those posts don't suffer the same consequence you describe for the most part.
My position isn't about asking questions. My perspective is doing it with purpose and not being a lazy ass. Most of us check new posts to see if they're at all interesting and worth contributing to. This is about newbies and lazy ass people wasting others time.
Some will slip through the cracks and ignoring is easy, I think people do that ALL THE TIME. But pointing newbies in a direction is better than suffering the same crap over and over.
Nothing wrong with asking people to put in a little effort. That's the point. :thumbup2:
And if it weren't for a little snark - who'd even use forums?
And yet nothing youve said will have any affect. The same questions will keep coming up. So you do one of two things.... respond.. Or ignore.
