i hate it when some one new comes on and asks a question, gets more stupid replys than info from guys with thousands of post, then some one comes along and says "lol".
give the new guys a break, it may get old when the same questions come up, but i dont see the need to be jerks.
i also dont see the need for others with low post counts to say "lol" to chap their lips on these guys butts.
and no i am not agitated thanks for asking.
that is just one use of lol that bugs me. </div></div>
I believe you are elliptically referring to the responses in the real sniper thread, (none of which were from me BTW). While I personally do not use the cretinous "LOL", I also refrain from ripping newbs for reasons of proportion. I am not an an expert nor am I particularly adept in web jargon, or eye poking for grins and chuckles.
I do like to laugh and try to generate them whenever possible. Also, I think the admonition of many of the saltier hide members holds here; a thick skin is essential!
