.I've found rhetorical questions many times to be condescending, like your initial post in this thread. The Op was just looking for some opinions and suggestions, there really was no need to be that jerkOne thing t Quote:

These "helpful" posters are just afraid to tell the OP the truth; don't trust loads from any forum expert and find reliable data for himself, they're not wanting to offend anyone and not be a jerk. So, going along with the conventual thinking (just like political correctness) I eased the OP's feelings by admitting to being a jerk and told him the truth. So, go ahead and lead every new reloader by the hand, don't tell him how to find his own answer,where to find answers or how to research, and being a jerk to everyone else...
I find forum members who "police" and condemn other's posts to be the epitomy of condescention...
