"Use the search bar"

I see shit like this all the time. Somebody asks a question that could probably be answered by searching, and someone tells them to simply use the search function rather than shitposting. This makes sense for stupid questions but what about questions on specific vendors? Whats wrong with getting a newer perspective on certain vendors? It could help you make an informed decision before you order. Thoughts?

Also the search function sucks ass. Sometimes I can't find threads I'm looking for.

I tend to use the search bar first, but if previous posts are not satisfactory I'll definitely ask.

The best is when you search and see a bunch of promising posts. Then the comments in those posts are garbage and say use the search bar.

Nobody's saying you can't make a post that hasn't been covered before.

The problem is when you have retards asking the same questions every week.

By the way, this entire post is completely gay and belongs on /r/darknetfaggots, which you should be moderating.

If they're asking about a certain vendor it's fine. If they're asking "when is TT gonna drop their new xtals?" or "where did they go?" Then they should use the search bar considering those have been asked numerous times. Also, if they're just sourcing without even a mention of a vendor then yeah they sure as hell should use the search bar. Other than that I agree that it can help to make an informed decision because sometimes the posts that you find in the search bar can be months (and years) old. So making a new posts can be beneficial to not only OP but other people, but only if it actually hasn't been asked like 5 times in a week etc etc.

my opinion only

It's because some people on here like to act like they are dark net badasses instead of actually answering a question.

It's an attitude that's become part of the overall internet zeitgeist during the past two decades or so, and it's a form of childishness:

You asked a question, the answer feels obvious to me because I've known it for a long time, and so I feel at an intuitive level like you're really dumb, meaning I feel super duper annoyed at your question, all because I don't have a well-developed theory of mind.

And that behavior of being a bitch to newcomers is a sort of negative-sum-game strategy that, unfortunately, fucking works. It discourages newcomers and thus helps maintain the tenuous social standing of established oldcomers, at least under certain kinds of social circumstances. Whether that's actually applicable and effective vis-a-vis knowledge of the DNMs is irrelevant: Once a little bastard gets into the fucking habit of pretending to be a goddamn walnut tree poisoning the dirt around it with juglone, they keep on acting on that habit. Y'know, like a drug habit.
