Newbies, like myself.. PLEASE TAKE NOTE.. This is not AM@ZON or EB@Y.. Read some posts and apply some common sense. If after a few days of following this forum and investing some time you still do not understand, then ask questions. But, if you do what I just described and devote some time and commit yourself to "Actual Learning", you will not need to ask any questions because all the answers are already here. I did the work, I read page after page of posts, I got an understanding and figured out the way things work (took about 4 days of reading everyone's posts)
Sorry, but had to say that. But I get real pissy when I see members with a 1 hour old account asking "How do I" or "I can't find" or "Help!" and the famous "I have spent 1 whole hour reading and can't...!" while I'm sitting here reading and researching and learning the ropes. Yes, this forum is for asking questions, and learning from one another, but it's not for peeps who just want the veteran users to post a step by step walk through guide every time you can't figure it out in the first 5 mins. No one is purposely trying to be an a$$ about it, this really is only to protect you. Knowledge is power.. knowing whats safe and what's not, who's trustworthy and who's not, and how to do it without getting into trouble will save you from later on posting "man, I wish I woulda read more on this guy. Now I'm out $ and still in pain".
The sad part about this rant is that the members this is meant for will probably never read it since they just want instant results and don't read posts anyhow!
To everyone else, Thank you so much for the huge amounts of information and dedication in sharing your knowledge and experiences with the rest of us! I hope one day to be able to pay it forward and help a beginner out as much as this site has helped me! Read my Bio and see who you all are really helping! I can't thank everyone enough!
And to the members who are struggling but haven't dedicated any time in reading, Do your homework!! (OMG.. I sound like my parents!)
Here is my "Tip of the day" : I occasionally see members ask whether or not a vendor ships to your country. An easy way to tell is to read through all the posts about them and look at the members names who have bought and received from them. There should be a little flag by their names that signifies their country of origin. If you see your countries flag, odds are, that vendor ships to your country!
