That's not the point

Reverse image search is fine, but I almost never find much that way, and anyhow now and then I'm interested in what other members have collected over the years, and what they happen to know about what they've collected. Why is it so terribly wrong to ask them about this once in awhile?
I appreciate the work the mods do, but it just doesn't seem right that people should be constantly scolded and lectured just for asking a question, newbies or not.

I don't begrudge other members who have contributed, such as you have cuttle, but i would suggest you look back over recent months and view some of the "requests" that have been made. There have been some from newer members where, if you check what they have posted before, it has all been short messages like "Great thread" and no content or info to help others. I say "requests" when I have actually seen some plain rude demands like "I need more of her" from newer members.
At the end of the day we are all free to do as we wish, so long as we remain within the rules of the forum. How much effort we put into help others is down to each individual. I understand what you say about other peoples personal collections also being a possible place to find more though and I do try to help link collections held on here and posted as compressed files within different threads. |
