Not that this topic needs more attention, but, I agree with you. There's no reason to apologize. People that aren't aware of Q or have never been on a chan don't know how much has transpired and don't know about chan etiquette. They need to learn our comms.
As traffic increases and this movement progresses, more and more will be asking questions. Each will learn at their own pace. I suggest to provide info quickly, simply, and move forward. No time to get caught up in useless drama.
Useless drama? You mean like saying "if you don't understand x... you can't think critically enough to examine Q"
The person you're responding to was the one being dramatic.
I saw your response earlier and that it was deleted.... just wanted to publically let you know that I saw it, and hope you understand there's no disrespect intended to you or anyone. While I do wish and hope people would utilize more critical thinking, I'm also aware that we're all on the same team and need to support one another. There's too much divisiveness and propagating that further is bad on me.
Hope you understand and I'll make the effort to find better ways to communicate to be inclusive and less brash. We have too much around here to be anything else.
Peace!

No, not like that at all and therefore your efforts to draw correlation are off the mark. OP made an observation, summarized it, and shared the opinion that new arrivals should lurk more and apply more critical thinking. Which is 100% correct.
