Default Why are the HVAC group posters such Aholes?

I subscribed to their newsgroup mostly to learn more about HVAC so that when
the techs come to work on mine I won't think they are speaking Cantonese.
What I found was reply after reply of garbage. If they don't want people
posting questions about ACs and furnaces what is the point of the newsgroup?
Spreading ways to screw home moaners as they call us? Sorry but I had to
vent after unsubscribing earlier from that newsgroup. No info just buttheads
spouting off.


We don't cater to the the deranged, or to the HO looking for a free
magic spell to cast upon their unit. If that bothers you then maybe you
resemble that remark, eh? And BTW, it is indeed illegal for you to open
your own refrigerant system.

I've spent over 20 yrs accumulating knowledge, licenses, certs, and some
go beyond HVAC related. In fact many of the professionals in alt.hvac
hold electrical licenses, contractors licenses, you name it, we've
probably got someone with it. Hell, I'm even licensed for asbestos
abatement.

We, the non-hacks, are not in the business of screwing anyone out of
anything. On the contrary, we are most often going out of our way to
help them out all we can. I can't speak for the hacks that you know.
Stereotyping is a sure sign of incurable moronism.
