How not read the BS on ET?

[ocean5]

Is there any guidance?

Delete the bookmark, quite simple!

I am the first to admit, there is an occasional useful nugget of information on this site.

Avoid reading any post by the poser S2007S.

Digging for nuggets of gold on this website is like panning for gold... 99% is crap but intermittently a nugget shines through. They are easy to miss though because those flecks of gold are usually quite small and hidden away in some random page of a post.

Basically read ET based on usernames not topics.

There are three categories in this board.

---People who most nothing but crap

---People who most intelligent stuff with ocassional gold nuggets

---People who post crap but sometimes post intelligent stuff + gold nuggets

Determine whos's who and read based on usernames, not topics.

And last but not least dont forget the Ignore feature, its invaluable.

in general do not read anyone who posts more than 1 post per day

I have a rule,

"Never post anything on the internet unless it is at least 99% bullshit."

That is a quite common rule here

Obviously you're a very generous person!

when I was a kid, there use to be a band called "Pearls Before Swine."

It was a takeoff of an old Bible quote.

to be honest with you, they weren't really as good as they thought they were
