What on earth are you talking about? I answered Syndrome's question accurately, comprehensively and at length, whereas I note that your only contribution so far has been to bitch and moan. How are you defining "taking it easy" in this context, contributing bugger all?

I used the word "dumb" for one reason - because Syndrome used it himself. I mentioned the search facility for no reason other than that it is often the quickest and best way to get answers to questions like this. It's invariably quicker than posting and waiting for someone who knows to see the thread and write out an answer. That isn't criticism, that's being helpful and constructive.

In this case it was the poster himself who acknowledged up front that it might be a "dumb" question, and it was in this specific context that I answered him - hence me quoting his post directly above the reply.

If the search button wasn't meant to be used, it wouldn't be there, and there wouldn't be posts like this telling users how to get the best out of it.

To demonstrate the point I've just searched for "WRC Noise". These are among the first ten answers:

The thread titles say it all, and there are plenty more. There's as much already written as Syndrome could ever want to know. Finding the threads takes seconds, and yet here you are suggesting he'd be better off sitting and waiting. Nice.

Oh, by the way Carl, I've had a quick scan through all those threads. I can't see a single contribution from you on any of them.

He did ask, and got more from me than you have so far contributed, either to this thread or any of those others I've just linked to. Seems all you do is bitch and moan, and advise others to ignore one of Snet's most powerful and informative resources. How odd.
