Blarg I made the mistake of dropping back into that community to see how things had shaken out.

So many questions. So many fundamental rules thingies that are right there in print if only you’d slow down and read. 

But you know what? Maybe I’m being unfair. I have no idea what this person’s reading skills may be. He may have reading comprehension problems. Dyslexia? English is a second language? I don’t know. I can’t know. It’s really unfair, I suppose, to assume everyone is a careful reader. I guess I am just surprised that folks who aren’t careful readers can, you know, learn from a rulebook at all.

And yet the questions are so well structured, you know? Clearly written and direct, no misspellings, no odd grammatical things that might indicate a second-language situation.

I think the real answer is just to stay out of communities. Maintain my weird remote desert fortress. Hope the signs that I put up years ago still point folks in the right direction.
