Why so mean?

I have posted a few questions in the past and I have read many questions from other guys and I read some very mean responses. Why? These are guys just like you who are trying to have a little fun and need a little help from time to time. I don't read the replies any more because of the high level of anger displayed. I am certain that I will get some hate mail just from these few comments. I love building motorized bikes and I really like to help other guys to avoid mistakes.
 
Lazy people ask dumb questions and they then get flak from smart people that take the time to research the subjects they are interested in.
I'll bet the lazy people don't even try to use the search function before they ask their zero level question.
Of course that's no excuse for smart people to be mean. Dumb people have rights too, you know.

See you are like me have great people skills. LOL
 
It's been my own experiance that I cannot go on line to ask a question if I don't know what to ask or indeed don't know what the question is. That's where readers experiance comes in handy. Like a first time builder trying to figue out why his bike doesn't run well. I asked a question a couple of years ago about why does my motor chug under 20 mph. I was told that I was a sissy for going under 20 mph. And that was the least of the derogatory comments. I really like this site, I just wanted to make a general statement about why do people have to, are compelled to be so mean.
 
sometimes people make "mean" comments with a much lighter attitude than the remarks are taken at.
I'm from Texas and there only your friends can be "mean" to you with cutting comments. When I get friendly with a yankee and make a cutting comment in a light hearted manner they get all offended etc and then I have to explain myself.

The term Yankee takes on a demeaning feel when used in the way you have used it as a proud TEXAN. If you applied your "Texan intellagence" to what you have written, you would realize that if you had not responded in the way that you did to those people in the past, you would not need to say you are sorry later. Why not just be respectfull in the first place. Now I am kind of sorry that I brought up the whole, why so mean question, in the first place. Obviously the subject only brings out more hostillity from pepole who are prone to be mean in the first place. I just want to enjoy conversing with other enthusiasts, i don't want to read this rediculous dribble.
