If you think about it, it's counterproductive. If experienced people attack the new people, new people will eventually stop posting and then what...you'll have a site full of experienced people who have no questions to answer!
New people come here to get answers because we are not experienced. If we had all of the answers then we wouldn't be here!

You have made one post...when did you get "attacked"?
From the other side: yes, Search does not always work like Google.
Many of us answer the even obvious & inane questions,
in combination with additional links
and/or pointing to Search for additional perspectives for the OP questioner.
From my perspective, perusing this Board a couple hrs a day, 7 days a week, the "attacks" are few and far between.
The whining in this thread is almost directly inverse proportional to the number of informative and helpful posts, by the poster,imo.
I have become ragged out lately, reading about the ragging; it's a great site with an eclectic group of very smart people from
very diverse backgrounds and cultures.
There is very little, on nearly any topic, that cannot draw a few reasonable answers, opins, ideas, on this Board, imo...
It is what it is, but
if there is a better car board/general info board, a board where most hold most in high regard, and especially an
X/BMW info board,
I have not found it in 10 years of cruising the web.
Good Luck to All,
