While Brandon's reply might be a little 'over the top', (it takes some people longer than others to engender an atmosphere of mutual respect toward one another, for various reasons) maybe a question mark in your topic would've given us all a clue as to what you wanted to find out.

lurking in the background
I read a post " while using the search feature " the other day about why so many people lurk in the background & not contribute to the site. Well I would think its replies like that one that will drive many members farther into the background. Come on guys why be hostile towards each other?

I just got back from Seagull Pier and things there are going pretty slow. I spent most of the weekend there and don't have a keeper to show for it. I saw two or three nice blues caught but the only good runs turned out to be skates. I can honestly say I caught at least thirty skates this weekend. I figure it's conditioning for when to big boys show up. I can drag in a skate with the best of them... I did pull in a few live croaker (bait) that were chomped in half.... The only shark were little 12 inch baby black tips. It can only get better but I'll be back next weekend.

I do not think inawe asked a stupid question. All the guy wanted to know if there was anything happening at the pier.
How do you know that he didn't do a search before posting?
People are constantly surfing this board and there is good chance that one of them may have just left the pier and therefore would be able to provide inawe with updated information.
While I think the search feature on web sites can be a valuable tool, I also think it can be a negative.When new people visit the site and post a question, and then receive a totally uncalled for bullying reply like yours,well, I think it tends to run them off.
I know of some web sites that have temporarly suspended or done away with their search feature just because of responses like yours. We live in a ever changing world, what was new yesterday is old today. When someone posts a question thats been asked many times before there is a good chance we may see a reply thats new to us all. People with your kind of attitude
can keep sites this one from attracting new members and in turn keep the rest of us from gaining from their knowledge.
Oh and BRANDON........ I noiticed that you posted a question on the tidalfish boating and fishing web site. You asked about the proper tackle to use when fishing for spade fish from a boat. That question has been asked on that board numerous times. Aren't you glad that no one told you that was a stupid question and for you to go do a search? Did you follow your own advice and do a search? I doubt it.

Can you tell the kids are out of school?
I've read an article years back that showed the number of small crimes (vandalism, petty theft, looting, etc.) increases the first few weeks after summer vacation starts. I'm sure that explains Brandon's behavior.
Brandon - I would say that there are a number of people that read this board and contribute to this board while they are at work. Not bad being able to do a little research and find out where they're hitting while getting PAID. Go Fishing!
