Upset and what this site is for
Hello all I have only belonged to this site for 2 months yet i will be the man here and tell it like it is.
Things this site is and isn't
#1 This site is not a hardware repair discussion site unless it pertains to security .
for hardware knowledge go to www.sharkyextreme.com
#2 This site is not a site on cracking boxes for that go to www.2600.com and they will point you to the proper sites
#3 This site is not a site where we disrespect our brothers and sisters if we are senior members ,no qusetion or comment is stupid if coming from newbies remeber you were once a newbie .
#4 Knowledge is power and should be shared accordingly no one has the right to hog it if you dont like it to bad thats how it is .
#5 No one is better than anyone Knowledge comes in varying degrees.
Besides insults anything the senior members write is uaually correct and they deserve thanks props and respect anything less than that is insulting to them.
#6 What this site is primarily a repository of knowledge about security ,certification ,products how to's faq's etc.

LOL, in other words, you'll tell us like you see it. This should be entertaining...

I don't see why you felt it necessary to state this...

Both true and untrue.

Newbies do not get flamed or disrespected or have their comments labeled as stupid. Script Kiddies on the other hand do, with good reason. I understand someone who is asking a genuine security-related question and needs help should get it, and if I can, I like to provide that help.
Asking how to hack hotmail is not a genuine security-related question, neither is asking where to get Sub7.

Wrong. Anyone is allowed to 'hog', all they need to do is keep their mouths (or in this case their fingers) shut. Whether this is good or not is debatable, but you are wrong to say that 'no one has the right to hog [knowledge]'.

Sorry, I've got to disagree with how you 'tell it how it is' again, this time on a couple of points.
1) Some people are better than others. If you don't agree, then I believe you have a fundamentally wrong picture of right and wrong. I won't go into details, it's a philosophy debate, I'm just saying I disagree.
2) Being a 'senior member' counts for nothing. All it proves is that you can post a lot. Being a productive, helpful member is another matter entirely.

Sure, that definition works.
