Default Re: Having a laugh?

No wedge driven, as far as I can see.

I don't think those sorts of posts do any damage other than to the poster. Those who need help seem to get it, and the givers of said help seem to feel that it was appreciated by the vast majority of readers.

I've asked for help many times in areas I'm not familiar with, and I've been able to dispense a bit on familiar stuff. Things look OK on both sides of the fence.

Inevitably there is a steady flow of people wanting to make a quick buck off forum member's generosity and there are those with negative social skills, but by and large the community is robust enough to shrug them off. Such people contain the seeds of their own destruction and inevitably bring far more misery into their own lives than they ever can bring to anyone else's.
