Angry NEW RULE...TREATMENT of NEW MEMBERS

I just got done responding to a couple of new members who asked a question about the ICW and were attacked by several members for not doing their proper homework before asking such a STUPID question. This kind of crap happens here all the time and it is going to end now.

You guys who like to react negatively should stay the hell away from newbies if you can't just be basically polite.
I am sick and tired of the negativity some of you spew at new folks asking perfectly innocent if uninformed questions and I am going to institute a unilateral personal rule that anyone who can't be polite to a person with less than 10 posts is gonna go on a one week vacation.

We thrive on NEW members and we are here to serve and help them and make new friends. Find someplace else to get rid of your hostility.I believe the majority of the membership will support this decision.
