1. RTFM posts are not a big deal. *shrug* If you get a response like this to a post, it is because you are asking a basic question that is clearly answered somewhere that is easily accessible.
2. All the time spent on these boards complaining about flamers would have been much more constructively used by reading/learning rather than whining.
3. Ah'm going to cap this: PEOPLE ON THIS BOARD ARE IN GENERAL VERY HELPFUL IN ASSISTING THOSE WITH VALID QUESTIONS AND REQUESTS FOR HELP.
Most people can't amass specialized knowledge by having it spoon fed to them. Trial and error, reading and research, study and application (read: WORK) are the ways to gain specialized knowledge. It requires specialized knowledge to analyze data packets in a manner useful to SEQ and to program (most) software.
Yet again, people with that specialized knowledge here on the boards seem willing to assist those who show that they are working to gain such knowledge. However, I'm all for any strategy that helps the SEQ project. So if this "flame is a no-no forum" is deemed by the developers as a Good Thing (tm), please do it.
Debating the ethical question about whether it is right or wrong to flame might be fun, I just don't see it as substantially important to the success or failure of the SEQ project.
