Although I believe this to true and just ,keeping a generally mild mannered civil tongue is important in a public forum.I agree that some people can be frustrating to deal with but a discussion can be done without excessively harsh language . I don't mind criticism as long as it is presented with explanations and solutions.I'm a beginner again ,after years of putting it aside, in the field of electronics.No I don't have the education,I'm having to relearn math I've forgotten years ago.But I do try.I don't expect to get a university degree here but I do like a challenge .I t may seem that something might be over my head or not investigating relevant information is not to annoy people.It's simply because I just don't know .If I make a mistake and blow something up I'll find out why eventually. It all apart of the learning experience. There are some really smart people here who have made this field a career and I admire that. But understand ,most of us don't have access to many devices and tools you may have become used to .Purchasing these things is just not possible for many of us because of either budget restraints or availability. Most of the stuff I have is old ,used and may not be a s accurate as something new .But its good enough for my needs.I'm don't expect to launch someone into space or develop the next ground breaking invention . If I have something to share in information , advice or experience it's not to make myself look good .It's because I enjoy electronics. |

Even at heated debates mixed with product fan boy rituals, it's a quiet clean informative lake here compared to the Facebook drivel cesspool, we should be thankful :clap: :clap: Besides, the beginners should be aware (and willing) they are diving in deep here amongst the big boys with big toys. I wouldn't complain as a newb if they go at it, discussing the merits of cheap and out of reach priced gear How can you not get something out of that, even if the original post has swayed off topic for a page or two? Beginners are here to learn something, I say throw them in the pool fully dressed and damn the torpedos! Beginners and Newbs: am I on the money or what?!! :-// |

OK Lightaged, I'm reporting you. You said MILK !!! Just teasing I hope you know. And being the noobiest of the noobs, this forum has been the best so far. And I say fork or some form there of. Like go fork yourself. And what the heck does " And Bob's your uncle " mean ? I've heard the dude in the videos say that a few times. Is that Dave ? |
