O.K. everybody, I don't post very often, but I think it is high time that you people hear some good ol' "Down-to-Earth", "Real-World", "Commonsense", "Back-to-Reality" comments from the heart of Silicon Valley ("The Common Sense Mecca of the World" compared to what I have been reading from you guys lately). Lets just keep in mind a couple of things here: There are three types of people who generaly access the "Net": 1.) College students and other "Higher Education" type people. 2.) Computer Professionals. 3.) People who unfortunately have a PC, and have seen too much on T.V. about the "Information Super-Highway". The first group of people most likely get their "Net" access for free via thier school, and therefore have lots of time to burn. These are the types of people that have nothing better to do, so they spend thier time trying to force feed people their opinions. These people stay in doors 24 hours and really have no concept of what the "Real-World" is like. The second group of people are either running up a big bill for thier employer OR have actually forked out of thier own pockets to get the "Net" access (This is highly rare considering that these are the same people who *** about the cost of floppy disks when they know damn well they've been snagging them from work for years. The third type are just cause traffic and must be ignored....We would all me much better off if they had just switched the channel one more station and not even heard about it in the first place. This all being said, I think MOST of you need a real reality check. think about the people your dealing with here. Most of them are completely obsesive, cry baby's, or just plain idiots. The news group name is REC.AUTOS.SIMULATORS not COMPLETELY.OBSESSIVE.***S......If somebody posts a request for car setups and you are one of these ***retentive butt-wipes, Why dont you just IGNORE THE REQUEST. This is not your personnal news group to voice your opinions on MATTERS OF PERSONNAL PREFERENCE. Its not like someone is sending E-Mail specifically addressed to you anyway. For other people who are so pissed off that some of the simulation members wont share their set-ups.....GROW-UP!!!!....Think about it for a minute, anyone who would spend "Countless Hours" of testing and tweeking their set-up's is bound to be protective of their findings. I have been working on PC's and Networks for many years, and if somebody if my same area of experience asked me for help I would gladely assist, ALTHOUGH, if on the other hand that same person EXPECTED me to give him the answer without reguard to how he (or she) could have figured it out for themselves, I would be most likely telling them to get F----D!!!!! Maybe now everyone will calm down a bit....and post about something else for a change....Start thrashing BYRON, BRYON, BUNYON again or someting....geez

Although I may very well fall into the "COMPLETELY.OBSESSIVE.***S" category according to Richard's post, I must redisplay is absolute words of wisdom concerning shared, hadn-fed, and hard-earned accomplishments: That's the concept I started with in this thread and I will say it again. I share my setups, but not with people who demand it of me. Heck, I'm not even the best out there, why demand my setup? Simply post a request and wait for it to come in. Don't dictate to us that we MUST send out or post our setups. Good post Richard. Ralf

Nobody cares if you or anyone wants to share setups; I don't recall seeing any discussion that said setups shouldn't be shared. People are simply explaining why THEY will not share THEIR setups, in response to a few people who whined about people not sharing their setups. --
