and after argue 100 times this way and every day the same question
comes up again and again while it is pretty clear that the one
who asked did not spent one second in read any manpage or
even type his question in Google because it is easier to
get ready pieces of people who do nothing else than fire
the question in Google and qutoe from there you get frustrated

after that if you explain someone things because you have
*real* expierience because your daily life depends on
what you are saying and get as response "no i do not want
it that way" - what are you doing?

respect is one topic

but it is also respectless to *not* read any line of a
manpage or use a search engine to get a minimal picture
about what you are asking

besides the fact that people who do not spend one second
to search and read docs they are anyways unable to understand
a answer with background it is also respectless to act this way
and waste the time of people which did their homework
