I see students too impatient to turn on a computer in a lab, will change to one already on.
That is so true for so many things.
On the subject of the constant rehash of certain topics(my hi-point takes loads that'd destroy your Sig-that's a good one,no?).It's my opinion that there are only so many things that can be discussed.W/what?20,000 odd members?There are likely few firearms topics that we can all relate to.If there were more world traveling hunters or more folks had FA guns there would be more topics.Those are just a few that come to mind.
About the folks who are unable/unwilling to use "search"?Well I'd say that some just don't *think* before they post,others are lazy,a few are looking for a quick answer-they aren't lazy,they probably just feel that they are too busy to look themselves(see sm's quote).Others are just stupid.Watcha gonna do,eh?
OTOH,I thought that the orginal Roundtable was an excellent idea.We all have something other than guns in our lives.
What Percentage of Gun Forum Threads Are Worthwhile?
the word "gun" in this sentence is not needed. hell. "forum threads" aren't needed either. the majority of everything is redundant, online or offline.
