I don't think there's any need to throw around insults.

My point is this, and I'm done with this thread. Those who get it will
without me needlessly flooding people's inbox with a bunch of spam.

It took Gabe like 3 minutes to put together a message explaining how
to do something. I understand not wanting to do work for free as I
like to get paid when I work for a client. However, there's a
difference in spending 3 minutes to write an answer and saying hey,
you could just pay us $45/hour to learn what you want. Even better,
why not provide the answer if it's something short, but put in a plug
for your company? People appreciate the answer and will remember you
should they need training. As others have stated here before, I've
never seen anything constructive. It's all along the lines of pay me
and my company. This list, at least from what I thought was to give
and receive help. I'm not saying people should work for free, but it's
a bit tiring looking at replies and always seeing the same thing.
