  1. One thing that irritates me to no end in other communities; it's when someone asks a question and instead of answering the question, the answerer rebukes with another question. "Why do you want to use twenty year old technology? Either get with the times or be left behind."

    Here's some food for thought. Either answer the question at hand or don't say anything at all. You don't need to know my reason for using retro technology for the sake of telling me I'm old fashion and refuse to get with the times. I never could understand why others feel the need to act superior because they choose to use the "latest and greatest".

      It's how humans operate. Need to control others, seeking validation for their own choices... I don't waste my energy trying to understand it, it is what it is.

      I got similar vibes you're describing here at multiple occasions, not a whole lot different from other places, just swap the software versions around. So I don't think it's that great over here as some think, in fact, I dare to say it's gotten worse over the years.

      Mine came from looking online for specific reasons for why something wouldn't work and I'd run into a few search results where someone would ask the very question I had so I'd click on it thinking maybe I'd get some sort of answer and instead: "Why would you run that on your network? It's years out of date!"

      Again, either answer the question of how to fix it, explain why it won't work, or just don't say anything at all. I think it's a relatively simple concept! But you are right, I'm sure it's the need to control others and make themselves feel superior for their own choices in life.
