Ok, I’ll admit to being pretty crotchety, and my tolerance for dumbassery is pretty low. That’s probably why I have 30 dumb@sses on my ignore list.
The fact I responded to your post shows you’re not on it…yet.

Forums are a dying deal. Ask one question - who on here is under the age of 40?
I feel like the answer is right in many ways, wrong in many ways, and proves a solid point.
I’m a “younger guy” at 35. A lot of guys my age and younger do avoid these forums. Largely because of all the hateful old turds running around. I know for myself I get tired of logging onto here sometimes and just seeing the massive amounts of whining and crying about anything and everything. It’s as bad as Facebook, if not worse. I stopped using Facebook for 3 reasons: the whining/crying, the fakeness, and the invasion of privacy. Don’t really have to worry about fakeness around here, but I have had to deal with the other two issues.
It’s not that the younger guys “rejoice in the failing of these things” but sometimes they aren’t upset about in the ridiculous amount of hyperbole spewed about them coming to a halt, like that exact statement.
Boomerisms and rants are fun, but the amount of bad, inaccurate, or plain wrong information shared on forums is pretty irritating. Lots of the questions unanswered is annoying too.

I completely get what you’re saying and am going to help you out. When you encounter a person that is a dumb@ss or whiny, tap their user name, and you can see the “ignore” button. Tap it, and the dumbassery and whininess disappears. Repeat the process as often as needed.
On the bright side, there is some great info to be found in here, and knowledge does get shared here. I’ve met some really awesome guys on this forum, and this place is def home. I’ve also made some pretty sweet deals on here and enjoy sharing what I know. There will be more kids joining, they might just take a little longer, or just won’t speak up or share.
I’ve done quite a bit of that.I completely get what you’re saying and am going to help you out.

I don’t have FB for obvious and pointed out reasons I check this forum probably 50 times a day I don’t read every thread but I can tell you I have made some great friends and I hope nothing happens to my favorite place
