Haven't had a need to visit it in 15 years till last week.

It's an interesting dynamic.

Obviously my observation is limited to basically only paying attention to it for the last week so admittedly I could be way off base here.

With a couple of exceptions it seems there are two, well three, types of posters.

Newbs with little to no knowledge looking for help.

People who have been around a bit and seem to only parrot stuff they've read / have seen posted frequently but really don't have first hand knowledge or experience with.

The people who really know their **** but have forgotten how to share their knowledge with people who have none. In that they give answers that require underlying knowledge that the person, typically a newb, doesn't posses. Don't know how that one really gets handled properly because the rabbit hole is deep.

The other interesting thing is it's almost as if there is too much accumulated knowledge.

The search feature is almost not useful any longer.

The depth of accumulated knowledge over the decades renders search almost like an entire library with 1,000 books on a single topic.
