Post #21.
And sorry, LW, we're going to have to disagree on this one.

This reminds me of the time I served on the jury for a tort case. When the judge told us to disregard an unsubstantiated health issue, I seem to have been the only person on the jury who could actually do that -- assess the case based on the evidence within the scope of deliberation, and disregard any concepts outside of that scope.
If you are honestly asking for help then; I suggest that you search before posting.
Allot of the questions have been asked before.
People grow tired of having to weed through 600 posts on the same topic.
Now that's a waste of bandwidth!

Whilst that is a fair argument on other forums. On here searching can often be a tedious task.
TRF is extremely cluttered in my opinion and yes it is largely because people start a build thread, then start another thread to ask questions, rather than containing it all within 1. Also many people don't even bother with the build threads, look at threads like 'what did you do rocket wise today', it's one huge communal build thread...what a terrible idea!! You try sifting through that for information or photos relevant to your query, then you'll understand why many simply can't be bothered to search.
It's already happened to some extent on here, but nowhere near where it needs to be. Sticky threads! Many other forums have endless sticky threads and even dedicated 'locked' tutorial threads and sections contributed by members (I have done this myself), that often covers the most asked about topics and how to's. I can think of 100's of these rocketry related tutorials we could and SHOULD have on here, that would save us seeing a lot of the same questions and threads popping up all the time.

That's true to an extent. In #21 the poster claims to not frequent the Watering Hole, dismissing it as a "cess pool," and then goes on to rail about the complainers (kind'a like the pot calling the kettle black), while displaying a clear lack of knowledge of what's going on and the current state of affairs.We are not disagreeing, we are talking apples and oranges.

Part of being new is figuring out who to ignore...

I've noticed as I begin to use the forum more and more, a number of people who go out of their way to be distinctly unhelpful.
Whether it be asking questions and the response of "figure it out yourself" or even so far as private messages suggesting I have no business in trying to further my skills, as it is best left to those with years of experience.
The latest example of this I've noticed is where somebody posted pictures of a 'tool' or piece of equipment they'd designed, I liked it, and asked if they'd mind me copying it. When I go back to look for reference, they've deleted all of their posts and pictures in that thread. Weird - and I can only assume they didn't want someone benefitting.
I'm not naming names. I just simply don't get it! I use this forum for help, advice & reference. I know (especially for you guys in the States) a big part of it is community and social. So I just don't understand people who join a forum aimed at offering help & advice, but then take the attitude of "I know but I'm not telling you". It's bizarre. Fin.
Absolutely! I talked with someone from Estes about it at a NARAM and he said that the extra step of drilling the grain core extension is the reason it hasn't made a comeback.Oh yeah! B14s rocked.
I don't know the specifics, but could they have done that because they received so much positive feedback that they decided to make and sell the item?The latest example of this I've noticed is where somebody posted pictures of a 'tool' or piece of equipment they'd designed, I liked it, and asked if they'd mind me copying it.
