True.....it's not "everybody"......but there are more than a few who turn red a lot more easily than they should, and slap newbies down harder than they should.....even people who aren't really newbies. for some reason, post count seems to have a direct correlation with it, but ironically that aint the best indicator of "newbie-ness".
Now, I'm not defending cross posting, but I do think it is pertinent when someone brand new says people here have quick tempers.... that says just as much about us as it says about the other guy....
