I'm partially with you. See my post where I told a poster "if you want personal fukn attention, go see a prostitute"

However, that said what experience do you have as a teacher? How are you the authority for what is the best way for beginners to learn? I've taught music, dance and economics at university and I don't feel qualified to tell people how to learn or how to teach.

Have you tried doing research? Do you know how hard that shit is? 6 months ago I wanted to buy a pair of skis. I tried searching on a ski forum but didn't find what I wanted. So I made a post. I was aware there were probably many posts, but I was hoping someone would volunteer 15 seconds of their time and either give me some links or tell me the answer. I get the point about this whole learning for yourself. But as long as someone approaches with respect I'm personally willing to help someone on their way. If you're not, then just don't respond.

If it's an arrogant shit posting then tell him to shut the fuck up, for sure. But in a recent thread that I'm guessing prompted this, they guy asked nicely "if you don't mind", tell me a bit... you know help me out a bit. And searching isn't that easy. I typed "going pro" in the search. The top results (excluding the newest thread) were a sportsbetting thread, lukie's thread of randomness, winner's circle, operation 75k, time to legalize online poker, new 19 hand play chart, and swiggidy's blog. I couldn't find what the guy was looking for. As a law student and stockpicker myself I'd live to have your research skills. Wouldn't mind if you could share them with me... or would you rather have me search for it?
