Is it just me?

Yeah that does read like they already know the answer to what they're asking.



What about now?

Yes looks good Dan.

Problem is Dan, that so often the blind are being led by the blind and when you try and point them in the right direction, the teddies come out of the prams

In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king. :laugh:

it does seem that there is a clique handful of experienced pros on here that have probably heard every question before and experienced every scenario,
whilst i bow to their superior knowledge they do seem a little impatient and a little rude to some posters,i think this puts some people of daring to ask questions.

It's the posts which ask the same question every other week that irritate the hell out of people. Coupled with the complete lack of information given in such posts and a lack of effort on the part of the person asking the question it is sure to wind people up.

We so often see an opening post which states that an RCD is tripping but the poster didn't do any testing as they were only having a quick look and didn't take any tools, how on earth is anyone supposed to offer any more helpful advice than to carry out some basic testing?

i know its not easy when you've heard it all before and i agree some of the questions could be better formulated.but what is the solution,perhaps it is better to just look away sometimes and not say anything

"Shed wirer uppers" are better classes of idiots than "extractor fannies"



I suppose its best we stop all this banter,it may be devaluing the thread content quality

Could it be that the OP's are DIYers, surely not?
