Good day, my fellow anime freaks, otaku one and all.. Oh yeah, hi to you too, newbies. 
Now I have a funny feeling that many of you, perhaps even most of you, have surfed a few message boards in your time. Perhaps there are even a few Arcticnightfall readers poking their heads into this rant, ne? =) Anyway, I have a question for you faithful board surfers out there. Do you get annoyed at seeing the same questions over and over again, asked by folks who can?t be bothered to take a couple of minutes to surf around to find that answer for themselves? Do any of you know when MAC will be making a perfect version of Sakura Wars TV, or maybe a rip of all the new Ghibli R1?s? No, you say? Well, neither do I, neither does anyone else so it would be really wonderful if people would stop asking different variations of the same question, over and over again? We had a newbie guide once, I?m thinking it may be time to write up another one, a la AN. The sad thing is, most of the newbies spend the time to look around before they post. Half the time it?s people who should know better who are asking the stupid stuff. Perhaps it?s just me.. Maybe I need to lighten up, put on a big fake smiley face, and just either ignore the questions that annoy me or just answer them with a big huge dose of cheer.. Or maybe cheer is boring and flaming is more fun for everyone. So I ask you, the masses. What do you think? Should every question asked on a board be answered politely or should people who should really know better feel the wrath for wasting your time? Let?s rant, shall we?
