I'm on all "sides" here... nearly all the "newbies" remark ( either in post or in chat) that they have been coming here or at the very least have been reading many of the posts before they joined.

Sky, IMO, we're all talking about the odd newbie that comes charging in here telling us what's wrong with this site or feels free to use whatever language they are used to using elsewhere, not realizing that we keep that kind of stuff to a bare minimum, not Every Newbie. You are right in that MOST newbies read the board and the guideline before they jump in.

As for the poster that was called on "solicitation," I don't think that was the case at all! It was just a matter of asking for help.

IMO, it's the ATTITUDE that matters.
