Why is it that SRP isn't very helpful to beginners? Why is it frowned upon to learn to hone? It almost seems as if it is one giant advertizement to buy stuff, rather than to learn skills. It kinda makes me sad, because I don't remember it being as bad 2 years ago. I have never seen a forum that all the moderators/mentors have the same exact opinion on all subjects. Kinda makes you wonder who is doing the thinking. I know it must be bad, when I have received so many PM's from people scared to post their thoughts in public for fear of being banned. What's the deal?
