Is this forum going downhill, due to numpty newbies?

I think this forum is going downhill thanks to whinging miserable gits that have been here a while, not due to newbie numpties, if anything they provide much of the entertainment round here, which helps to numb the brain pain from all the whinging taking place.

but you see its the ones who you call whinging miserable gits who are organising the rides, posting up events, keeping the drinks going, etc etc... if newbies want to be a part of the forum, contribute, get into the offline aspects of the forum, and spend less time asking inane questions that can be easily answered via the power of google.

@ will, this forum will never be an equal opportunities playground, because the majority of women who are into bikes will never obsess as men do about the minutiae of them, the small minority who do find this place enjoyable/tolerable, its never going to be 50/50, but if the forum gets anywhere close to a 70/30 man/woman split, I think it'd be a better place.
