Good thing I read your post: as a Scooby Newbie, we need all the hand-holding we can get! But then again, I am always a fan of clear and concise Q&A. If I wasn't, I'd base all of my knowledge off of Yahoo! Answers.

Helper: "Do x, y, and z."
OP: "Okay, I did a, b, and c, and it still isn't working, should I maybe try doing d and e?"
Helper: "Do x, y, and z. Seriously."
OP: "Okay, well, that didn't work, but, I tried doing r, l, and q..."
Helper: "Did you do x, y, and z?"
OP: "no, but I just tried m, pi, and tractor."
Literally made me laugh out loud.
But seriously though, I would have tried banana, q, and zeta.

Yeah, that wasn't funny at all... I tried!
Bored at work, SUCKS.

I am new to this forum and was sorely disappointed with the replies I received for what I
Thought was a legitimate question.I quote" the newbie & FAQ forum is a good place to get
started........post here to get started and ask questions". I guess not. Just because I am new
to this, (Im not even sure how to post on this site),dosen't mean I'm stupid.It behooves me
to think you have any members who aren't frightened to ask questions for fear of being embarrassed .

it isn't about knowing how to use a forum or not (well...the only thing you need to learn is how to use the "search" feature), but about collecting your thoughts, providing as much information as possible, and being as clear as possible.

asking things like "i want to throw an sti turbo on my car" will get you nowhere. stupid questions get stupid responses. however, doing a little bit of research BEFORE you hit the "new thread" button will do a world of good.

just a thought .
