I've seen a lot of that lately on this forum, though. Someone comes in and starts asking why this is happening and why that is happening; how do I hook this up, how does this work. Then one of you guys with the knowledge ( I contribute, but hell, we know I don't really know shit) will explain it to them simple enough for me to understand ( a feat in itself), and BOOM, it flies over their head like a jet plane bound for who-knows-where. And a lot of it is just lazies. They buy something because they heard about it from somewhere, get it home, and don't want to read the manuals. The "I am thinking about getting into home recording, what (gear/equipment/stuff) will I need is the most annoying question of all. Not only are the answers on Dragon's home page (I read every word and clicked on every link. Ask him, I reported the dead ones), but damned if someone hadn't asked that very question just 10 minutes prior. Too lazy to read, or just wanting personal attention, I don't know. But it can get a little annoying, so it's only right when someone goes off on someone who obviously didn't want to take the time to research what they were doing before they spent $1200.00 or any money at all on the gear they have. You are right, it's the newbie forum, which promises they won't get flamed for asking a dumb question. But where do you draw the line?
