Could someone give me the summary of how we have the new HOW TO ANSWER QUESTIONS message from Chris
It's the top sticky in every programming forum. Basically no verbal cluebatting. http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/3117206/HOW-TO-ANSWER-A-QUESTION.aspx[^]

No idea who :suss:, but persons unnamed had resorted to calling retards retard when they asked retarded questions. Chris made us all write out 100 times 'I will not call Retarded Question Asking Retards Retards', stand in the corner and sing the "I'm Very Sorry" song.
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done.

Well we all learned a valuable lesson here. Thanks for taking one for the team. Whoever they were.

Surely, you'd know why he (Chris) had to end up doing that :-)

Of course I understand the situation but not why he had to do it, which is my question. I mean part of the reason I liked CP was it was sort of for us as well as the people asking questions. Now if it's just all about them, and so many of them are worthless monkeys, then the attraction to CP for me is seriously limited.

So, what you're saying is that because you can't insult people, you feel that CP is less attractive? You should be doing USENET instead.

I already know what you think of my attitude so I don't expect that to change, but since you asked. My view is that our industry already suffers from slackers, frauds and idiots populating it and encouraging more of that is counter productive to that view.

Idiots will always be idiots, no matter what you write in a forum. It's counter productive for you to pursue idiots online, when you could be hacking code instead...

Since we agree I don't understand your apparent concern. If we act politically correct towards idiots we encourage them to remain working in software development. Previously, those of us that wanted to were free to discourage them here on CP which was why the site fit my view. Now CP is just like all the other sites with forums (in that regard) so it no longer fits my view.
