I have
never seen that. Even those who ask the same things that have been asked & answered ad nauseam still get the answers spoonfed to them. As it is, "Collecting Help" could be named "How do I ship to England"--and there's one poster who diligently answers every...single...time. I admire her ability to not go berserk.

I agree let them know its a fake or sec but please try to explain to them why and not just put down there post.
If anyone, new or experienced, puts a fake in "Feedback" without labeling it as such, they're doing a disservice to the community. I've never seen anyone be rude about it; curt, maybe, but not rude.
As for explaining the reasoning behind it, that's great--in theory. The problem is that a lot of these are either painfully obvious or have been talked to death already.
If you wonder why someone says something is a PP, go into the past feedback for that person and look at the posted images. It really is that simple.
There are also posts beyond posts beyond posts dissecting various secs. If you're curious, read them.
If you don't have time to find them, then why would anyone else have time to do your research for you to satisfy your curiosity?
If you do your research & come up with a different opinion, then share it. It's a community. It thrives on dialogue. But you need to actually do your own research first. Yes, in most cases, that is the responsibility of the person making the claim, but there is a widely regarded exception for common knowledge, which is what most of those claims fall under on this board after being talked to death.

I'm sure there are alot of great people who could take over for him not replace him but like others say lighten his load or maby he's just to busy to attend to the issues. I'm a single dad I totally understand being busy but there are good people willing to help. Whatever the problem is we need to fix it.
Preaching to the choir.

Argument... There's another word that, like rude, gets thrown around & misused here often. Dialogue, disagreements, & back and forths != arguments.
Are there arguments here? Yes.
Is everything that gets called an argument actually one? No.
There's a serious maturity problem on these boards. People feel personally attacked by nothing and respond with ad hominems and everything else. Anyone who tells them something they don't like without padding it with unnecessary niceties is "rude" or "trolling".
This is what leads to actual arguments--when people like that sense an argument where there wasn't one.
ETA: Here's an example of exactly what I'm talking about:
Subject: Emilia Clarke super fast success!!
People decide to interpret words with a tone where none was intended, get upset about the tone that they put there, and then turn a dialogue into a fight because they didn't like the attitude that they decided was present.
You can find the same thing with Robin's post above, too. People are so inclined to turn things into fights that they actually read attitudes into things that weren't there just so they can.
