Why is it when a new person joins a forum and asks questions on how to do stuff, they get short answers that people assume what they are talking about? Or if they post something about something they've observed, they get sarcasm in return? I thought the purpose of this forum was to share info w/ other vehicle owners. I just recently purchased my civic, and I'm learning about it. There are lots of things I would like to do myself. I'm trying to get input to help me w/ it, but the few attempts I've made on this forum to get helpful info hasn't been the greatest experience so far. Is this just like every other forum where your 'post count' has to be a certain number before someone hears you?
