Re: [asterisk-biz] Need USA virtual PRIs for www.VisionVoIP.com

I agree Alex,

 

But remember the list is international, even myself, english is not my mother language, so some questions will never be as clear as you would expect and yes lazy do people exist, but it would not harm nobody to point them to the right direction without teaching them everything and making them feel unwelcomed. Also I believe one must be objective as much as you can but at the same time free to give personal opinions while clearly saying it is a personal opinion, if not, you may be minimizing the novices to explore and experience other stuff by themself and see what works best for them.

That is not an accurate characterisation of my stance.

I am often critical of questions that are not well-formed, are extremely
broad and open-ended, and/or lazy.  The last category is the most
prevalent;  rather than researching issues themselves, certain people
come on mailing lists expecting others to volunteer to teach them broad
technical ontologies.  That won't happen, and it's a pointless waste of
time.

Have a look at:
