Its not a fan club, its just people who have an appreciation for someone who spends a fair amount of time giving his 'informed' and extremely helpfull advice on matters whichhe has a complete experience of, advice that you could have quite easily have accessed had you bothered putting a tiny amount of effort in.
And as for going down to CTC and asking questions like that? GET REAL, here I can ask anything I want and not get a beasting for it, people can act like they want on this forum and any other internet chat rooms or forums and be completley differant in actual life.

Why would you act and be any different on an internet forum, to real life? Is it because you can hide behind your computer? Surely you are the same person and can adopt the same attitudes/manners and so forth as you would in real life?
You think how I post on this forum has anything to do with my training whatso ever? It doesn't bother me too much that people will make such a quick and inaccurate judment of me becuase of my post, they won't be there heping me through my PRMC or my 32 weeks.

I have not made a quick judement on you, i only made the point that if you feel you can get through PRMC and RT then why on earth would looking through a few posts be seen by you as something you couldn,t be 'arsed' to do. Its not very hard is it. It will take you far less time to do that than it would for the likes of Artist to constantly repeat thier advice on threads that have been covered. If nobody used the search button these questions would come up ALL the time, and Artist and the rest would be writing the same old sh** everyday. Do you not understand that?
It was me asking the queston so I can PASS my prmc and get some tips and all I got was sarcasm from the so called heroe of this website.

If you cant handle a little sarcasm mate, good luck at CTC.
If you need to bar me for askign a question then do it, it's not gonna break my heart. theres plent of things on the internet where I can get help.
If you feel you have been unfairly judged, then prove us wrong.

I've said it before and i'll say it again "A day spent trawling through old posts here is NOT a day wasted."

Crack on with the training and don't expect too much too fast. Small steps reap large rewards at the end.

Well seeing as anything I say on here gets me into trouble straight away, even though I have had threatening and pointless messages off more than 1 person, I wonder how they are dealt with?
Nothingh atall i'm willing to bet.

At the end of the day, i'm not the only person to repeat post but i'm bearing thr brunt off all the shit because I gobbed off.

At least i'm not handing out duff advice, i'm asking serious questions and just wanted a normal answer but i've jsut been totally backed into a corner by the Artist lovers.

Well i'll probably get banned after this post, I have no reason that I need to keep defending myself, I didn't send any threatening material/posts or messages to anybody and just asked a harmless question, look at the last 10 posts in this section ,I bet half of them are repeats.

The questions that I ask here would definetly not be asked in person to any PTI or anyone else like that down at CTC or on the PRMC, i'm not hiding behind my computer screen, but be honest, who really likes to get beasted aned shouted at? Here I can do it without that happening.

Whatever anyway, this is got well well out of hand. I would of wanted the help of Artist seeing as he has been through it all but I didn't get any help , but remember it's my own fault coz I didn't use the search button. Nuaghty me, i'm not the first person though am i?!!

I for one am not recommending binning you as of this minute.
But quit the sniveling. This post of yours is exactly that.
In my previous post to you I recommended you think real hard, meaning about what's been said and by whom before you replied.

As a result of your responses to Artist on this thread, Artist decided to wrap it up.
Now what does it mean to have been there and done that?
It means in part at least that one doesn't have to bother answering questions, be they basic, be they advanced, be they completely stupid.
Why do it?

Maybe you are correct: you may be happier on some other forum. In the mean time, members of this forum have lost a very valuable resource, and you have played your part in that loss.

I've been fairly vocal on the topic of repetitive threads so i'll get on my soap box again.

Having masses of posts asking basic questions about topics which have been covered in depth is not helpful. Rather than aiding the free flow of information it can in fact mask useful threads. Posting a question and not doing basic research first is not just lazy it's disrespectful. Everyone here gives up part of their free time to share information, they are not obliged to simply provide answers at the drop of a hat. Initiative and self reliance are the basic pre-requisites every Royal Marines Commando must possess. When the old and bold leap on you for not displaying these characteristics it is (mostly) for your own good and not just because they like having a pop at the young ones.

*off soap box and goes back to the football*

Sorry lads, but this is getting a bit stupid now.. Rickyboi is in the wrong for being cheeky, BUT Rickyboi isnt the only one in the wrong. Things are getting a little out of hand now and i think jumping on him for it is a bit unfair.

We all make mistakes, and we all deserve second chances.
