Pretty much any of the aforementioned threads. Forum drama, while entertaining at times, can get quite nasty.

Actually, if you take the time to read all 16.072 (at this writing) posts of the this thread, Are the posted questions getting worse?, you will learn a lot about many of us on SSC.

Nice, looks like that thread will occupy much time in my ReadItLater list

I realize that some of the threads may be less than lovely as suggested but If you have spent any time on other boards around the IT community you know wha tI am talking about. For example go to any board on windows and post a question you will get no less than two responces explaining to you why your problem is that you have not installed linux yet and why microsoft is an evil empire that will ultimatley destroy humanity. you will also get a few commenting on how there equipment is better than yours and you will get at least on 12 year old commenting based on his vast expierence in the work force. Just reboot your produciton box in the middle of the day! Throw patches at it till the problem goes away and never and I mean never ask what caused the problem!
This so far has not been the norm here. I have been told I am wrong but I would like to encourage you to keep doing that. In the IT world it is easy to hold what is comfortable as truth rather than what is right. so I post as much to challenge my own belief as I do to help others.
and yes some of the posted question are getting worse but I have only read very little of that thread. "I have a Sql query I need to write?" I think this was a post from the other day.

If only I could snap my figures and have all the correct indexes apear and the buffer clean and.... Start day dream here.

I gave up posting on or reading that thread long ago. Just too much work to keep up.

I hope we don't have too much nastiness here. I try to keep an eye on it and remove/edit things that are offensive. I think we have built a better community than most places, and most of that is due to the quality of the contributors here.

Thanks to all who volunteer their time to help out in the community. Very much appreciated.
