How come a lot of you so-called "experts" get bent out of shape when someone new posts a question? Sure, sometimes the questions may be obvious or silly. Sure, this site is full of useful info. But if you are new to this sort of thing, i.e. cultivation, it can be overwhelming. You guys sound like pretentious myco-snobs to me. No patience for those wanting to learn. Thought this was a community to learn and share ideas, not to growl and snivel when someone asks a question you don't deem as worthy. You were new to this once upon a time yourself. This post does not include the people on this site who are open, helpful and supportive. Those reading this know who you are. Kick me off here, I don't care. I buy my mushrooms from a local mycologist who, by the way, has never heard a stupid question when it come to his passion.

its your second post, and youre calling us snobs wow 
anyhow, yes sometimes we get a bit touchy when someone asks a very simple qusetion that has been answered several times before, and is located in the faq stickied at the top of the forum.
Soooooo considering this hasnt happened to you, as this is your SECOND post, please continue to enjoy the site, and if you find someone being a myco-snob hit the notify moderator button and it will be handled

Chill out man, even if your questions get snubbed at they still get answered. I'm very grateful for the help ive been given. People in there have been answering the same questions for years, all of those questions are findable by using the search function.
You'll know how it feels when your answering the exact same question 4 times a week, every week.
I think gratitude is in order.

Gosh, all of you are so clever and smart! In fact, so smart that I don't deserve to be a member of your little community. After this reply, I shall unsuscribe and find some friendlier hippies to play with. I leave you with the quote of the day: In times of change, learners inherit the Earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.

Probably that chick who was bitching about the same thing yesterday...
-------------------- After one comes, through contact with it's administrators, no longer to cherish greatly the law as a remedy in abuses, then the bottle becomes a sovereign means of direct action. If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it. - Ernest Hemingway If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it. In the law courts, in business, in government. There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent. -Cormac MacCarthy He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus
