Oh my. laugh out loud Don't you know its rude to ask a woman her age?

I have absolutely no problem helping people out, IF they help THEMSELVES first. If they show they have done a little research first, and aren't just trying for a free ride, then I am MORE than happy to help them. Read back through my post history - you'll see its true. Its when someone comes on the board and shows by their questions they have done NO research and are looking for things to be handed to them on a platter, I have no patience for that. Yes, we all started somewhere, and where I started was reading for a solid several months to get the hang of things before I ever even made a post.

You mentioned no one speaking up around here - PLENTY of people speak up - maybe they just don't agree with YOU?!

I care not one whit how many posts any one poster has, nor do I compare my post count to anyone else. That's far too petty and time-wasting. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Anyway, not sure why you posted what you did - had nothing to do with you.

Confused Hmmm. I am sorry. I didn't know someone around here "owned" this thread. I will vent just like you. Wink Sorry, but your statement was uncalled for.

Just an F.Y.I.: this thread is open to all who care to come and lurk/or chat. Because you have been in this particular thread for a bit, does not mean that you should "limit" the thread to you and any "originals." Can I ask you how old you are? Just curious. Wink Alot of new posters don't feel comfortable posting or asking questions because some of you are so rude. Everyone was new at one point, and I am SURE most of us that were new to SD had no idea what the heck a wiki was. Just take that into consideration.

Authority because someone has 10,000 posts? laugh out loud Sounds like someone may be a bit jealous?? WOW. This is a THREAD for crying out loud! It's a FREE world.

ATTENTION ALL 10,000 POSTERS: You may NOT answer a question on the Target thread if you know the answer, as you will be considered a "know-it-all." laugh out loud

Oh my. What is this world coming to?

Just ranting, as it seems like very few people speak up around here. Myself, I say what I feel should be said. Sorry, but that's just my opinion, to each her own. hug

Geez, I go get groceries and come back to 12 pages to read. I think I will be gone until Sunday when this deal is over. Not only is it frustrating to see all the same posts over and over, I also can't get any of my questions or PM's answered anymore.

It is my understanding that the GC deal is done on Saturday, but the $3 price is good through 4/14. Could be wrong though.

I see the problem with both sides. In siding with Flugette, there is a rediculous amount of new people coming to this thread because of the pantene deal, and rather they look for the deal in the numerous posts they want someone to baby talk them through it. After several of these "new posters" ask the same question, it gets very upsetting, they are littering the thread. As someone else mentioned, it's impossible for us who go after other deals to even discuss anything other than panteen. I haven't posted because of this. I'm also getting really tired of reading so many pages because of it. So when the educated people give in to feeding the answers to these questions over and over again, then of course people will continue to ask without doing there homework. Shat, If my college professor gave me the test with all of the answers why would I study? And of course I would expect this before every testnod . Get my drift? Now, there are lots of very generous people who I know feel they should help as they have been helped in the past, which is awesome, but we need to be choosy in how we help.

Now, Chocolate, I understand where your coming from also. Flugette was harsh with her words (keep in mind when something bothers you so bad you tend to be mean and say things we may not mean). I know were all getting frustrated with the repetitiveness of the damn question. In her comment it sounds as though us new people may not be welcome here. Me being new also, I didn't take this to heart us I understand the frustration. I really don't think she meant to call someone out for being helpful, again we can't feed these people what they want no matter how educated with deals one might beshake head . Hope this all makes sense. I know for me it's easier to understand a situation when I hear a non biased opinion. If I offended anyone, sorry. hug

Is it just me, or has "our" thread been overtaken? By newbies who just want the deal handed to them, and by know-it-alls who answer every question as though they are the authority because they have 10,000 posts?!? Sorry, just had to vent - that was bothering me. Smilie



But it did with me, and it is you in fact who brought up my post count, upset that I dare give advice and/or answer questions in your thread.

Hardly a helpful or friendly attitude.
