I'd rather have a "n00b" willing to share info than a "pro" who derives his confidence from bashing others who are not so experienced with forum posting. Image

ouch pickfish. it was a joke. dude...ive done the same thing not a month ago. relax with your filp-you-off-smiley. and i never claimed to be "pro"

listen...everyone needs to just calm the Funk down before someone ends up banned.

and really, there was nt much more i could say there anyway...um you forgot the link? hat was covered. i cant post the link for him, i didnt know what he had. in many cases i help people (as opposed to just bashing n00bs) in fact, just like 2days ago, lightfoot posted a question refering to hte foley class thingy- i have no idea whwat that even is other than a school thing, and they needed help with some lesson with impressioning, i have no idea really how to do any of it, however, i saw a similar post in any thread and it answered their questions well, so i posted a link to that thread for them and they replied the next day "thanks! that was just what i was looking for!"

bam-o. help. i help as much as i can, as do we all.
