    I have to disagree with you on this one, Derek. If you go back and read her post history in both her first thread and this one, she received the same advice any new member would have gotten, given a similar situation. In fact, if you read her first thread, she was repeatedly given good advice in a patient manner. Advice she not only did not take, but had no problem posting about how she didn't take it.

    As friendly as this site usually is 90% of the time, it truly takes two to tango. And to be further honest, no one has been run off the site, without first showing a bad attitude and disrespect. While I am sorry that the world is not all rainbows and sunshine, the reality is that some people do not take advice well...especially advice they a have asked for. It does not take a rocket surgeon to quickly decipher the psyche of a person who asks for advice looking only for validation of the fantasy world they have created in their own minds.

    In certain situations, not calling a round nosed garden tool a round nosed garden tool does a disservice to the members of this forum, and the tool.
