Call me selfish, but I've worked hard to gain the experience and knowledge that I have. Why should anyone spend their time reading, researching, and learning, only to have someone come in as a "newbie" and cheat off of our homework? It would be different if it were brain surgery and information and experience isn't as free flowing, but its not. ALL of the necessary basic information is there..... right at their fingertips, but STILL it easier to ask for someone elses homework, than to do their own. Do they even realize that in the time it takes them to post a basic question, and wait for replies, the probably could have answered their own question with DETAILED information with a simple self initiated search?
I'm not asking them to diagram the digestive system of a chicken and define the scientific terms associated. I'm just asking for them to know what a chicken is.........
Perhaps I just have a distorted view of things....
Call me crotchety, but thats my opinion.....
Well...ok. "Crotchety!"
Seriously, I understand. Many times, I see the same questions over and over, when the posters could have looked at several threads on the very first page of threads in the section, and gotten the answer about 50 times. Without even using the search.
Sometimes I wonder why on earth a person would start keeping chickens or any other live creature, without at least reading a book or even an article on the subject. Sometimes even a breed description in a poultry catalog would've answered the question.
