Re: Common courtesy
Something I try to remember is to use the full words the first time in a post, and then the shortened version after that in the same post (not the same thread).
Also, new people can help to keep the old timers in a friendlier mood by picking up the load on those seen-many-times questions. If you have seen the answer ten times then there is no reason that you cant start giving the answer when it gets asked again. That way the old timers can settle back and use their limited patience on asking rarer questions.
