2 years junior to yourself Paul, but like you I use this site more as a resource tool, and it's hard to contribute when a lot of the stuff goes over my head!I was just wondering if I'm the longest standing Newbie on here, 10 years of membership and still classed as a Newbie lol, I usually just come on and read up on lots of stuff, rather than ask lots of daft questions and then be ridiculed for it, any Newbies on longer than me?

Yeah, you’ve been great when Ive asked questions mate, much appreciated, sometimes though you get users that tell you just to “read the thread etc” as the questions “been asked several times before”, so sometimes it puts you off asking straight away. Techkings has been a wonderful source of information, I’ve been here since card sharing days and its been invaluable over the last 10 years it really has.It’s sometimes quicker to just ask questions than trying to search for the answer.
The Internet is a minefield of misinformation.
Nobody should be ridiculed for asking a question either.
If you don’t know, you don’t know.

Definitely miss those days 😪2016 "newbie" myself but been around the forums forever it feels like. Back in the good old sly & virmin days 👍
there is a difference you may know answer and rather than having to repeat it for the umpteenth time you may just point member to the answer, especially if not just a simple answer.What is the point of knowing something and not sharing it.
The search function can help but not always and some threads are pages and pages of posts on forums.
Haha, 10 years as a Newbie? You’re basically the Newbie Hall of Fame Inductee! 🏅 Don't worry, you've mastered the art of silent lurking—some might even call you a stealth pro. Maybe we need a new title: "Seasoned Newbie Extraordinaire." 😄 Anyone else been lurking long enough to challenge this legend?I was just wondering if I'm the longest standing Newbie on here, 10 years of membership and still classed as a Newbie lol, I usually just come on and read up on lots of stuff, rather than ask lots of daft questions and then be ridiculed for it, any Newbies on longer than me?
