I would just like to make something's clear here:

If someone asks a question that has been asked before and you reply along these lines "as it's your first post I will answer, but in the future use the search function" Or "where have you been Durhhh" then you are a dick, there is no debating this it is a simple fact.

How do these people behave in the outside, if I asked someone the time would I receive a harsh beating for not having a watch on, if you asked them directions would they berate you for not having a map... Probably not so why do it on the Internet!!!

So just to reiterate if someone ask a question and you reply in a less than friendly manner you are a gigantic phallus.

Thanks for your time/end rant.
The difference is:

In the real world you don't walk in the halls of world's largest library which contains everything you want or need to know - therefore asking real ppl IS ok.

In the net, the answer you're seeking is (usually) only a few keystrokes away.
