Ok Guys.... Time to stop the messing around with this person.
Many of us have attempted to help this "Lady" to learn the ins and outs of mining as best we could. How ever, she has yet to give us any real information to work with. Basic location alone would make it so we could help her better, yet she refuses to share even which country or state she's in. If we are going to be able to help her, we can't be trying to do so blind. What works in one area doesn't always work in another. This is a basic fact of mining and we all know it.
Until as such time as she is willing to give us basic information so we can help her in a proper manner, I'd like to suggest that we do not reply to her questions beyond suggesting that she use the search function. With all of the threads on here she should be able to find the information she wants. Smart remarks to her are only getting members in hot water with the mods. We all know that many of the people on here are willing to help ANYONE that asks for it and we've fielded some pretty strange questions over the years. These people were at least willing to give us basic info to work from in most cases. If she is not willing to help herself by giving us the basic info to start with, then we should all keep quiet and not be making comments that can lead to members getting banned or put on "time out" by the mods. We are professionals after all and we should be acting like it. If you can't help a person because they don't want to divulge their location, then don't say anything at all to them. This will keep it so those willing to help themselves by giving us basic information like location, basic terrain etc get the help they need and that the information given is accurate for their location. Those that don't seem to really want to learn are not worth wasting our time with. The information highway is a two way street and those that want to make it a one way street will find that bucking the flow of traffic isn't going to get them anywhere.
Joking between ourselves is one thing provided we know just who we are dealing with. Usually if I want to give one of you a hard time I will do it in a POLITE way if in an open thread or send ya a PM. I wouldn't suggest cracking jokes with new members until we know what their character is and what their limits are. WE know the rules here and should be following them if for no other reason than to be able to continue helping those that come seeking honest knowledge. If you get banned from the forum because you let someone get under your skin, it's only going to lessen the knowledge base for those asking legitimate questions and that are willing to give us basic info to work with.
