I didn't bad mouth the site either......there is a lot of work that goes into the running of a site like this and I value the effort put into it.
I don't think you can generalise about newbies.....or anything else for that matter, although we all do invariably do it at some point or another.

Isn't life strange? If and when I go on the attack/defense it is, (usually), against newbies that claim freedom of speech. Most newbies that come on give an honest opinion without trying to hurt or change long standing members, I welcome them with open arms, usually they manage an extra opinion without us having to feel anything other than a sense of 'Ah, yes',
Then we get people like, (and I hate to point the finger but) 'Roy buoy', who will never agree with anyone because they enjoy the mess made by others and feel they should add to it!
Why on Earth he bothers to post I have no idea, he should just get on with his own version of life and leave us to our own virtual existence!
