All you need to do is put yourself in the position of the people you're asking to respond to you, that's it really. I for one nip in and out several times a day and don't mind at all questions that ask specific points. This model camera or that model, What mic for this, how can I do that.... and that's fine. But when there's a barrage of Q,Q,Q,Q,Q,Q, do I have the time to reply in detail and with accuracy? Not usually. And I suspect most other regulars are the same.
Also, I often think the sub-text of a Q,Q,Q,Q,Q,Q post is "I can't be bothered to do some research myself, who will do it for me?"
Mark W did some online research for you (I doubt he knew those figures of the top of his head)... but you cold have achieved the same in ten minutes of Googling. I pointed out the tax implications of buying abroad and The Guru answered your question about B&H. I would call that a pretty good result.
Anyway, let's move on now - ask questions by all means - all the regs come here to help - but just try to keep them in the sections they belong and a bit more specific eh?
Cheers,
Andy. |
