To me, what's particularly irksome are those who think that everyone here is personally obligated to help them, like this is a Microsoft support department, and that we don't have regular fulltime jobs like everyone else. They somehow don't realize that this is a FREE website and that we give FREE help and advice (help and advice that would normally cost hundreds of dollars an hour if they hired a consultant). If they don't like the help here, they are FREE to go somewhere else.

"I'm just not a big fan of making fun of people that are hard learners"
Definitely not my intention, although easy to read that in to my posts in this thread! However, people that get on to my "Twit List" don't get my continued help I'm afraid.

I think it's fine for people to expect and demand a response immediately. I mean what else are they to do? Otherwise they might fail their assignments.

The poster who sent this?quote: Hello friends,
I am creating BACKUP of my database. Now, after creating it, when I delete something from tables, it comes back in tables after using RESTORE. But when I insert new data in it and if I delete one or more rows from new data and I restore the database, all new data entered is lost. How can I solve this problem. What is the problem and how to solve it.

Well, I think he is somewhat knowledgable how to do a BACKUP. But he doesn't grasp what it does.
And his knowledge about what RESTORE does..? 
Yes, blindman, where do one start?

I have one more candidate. He thought he didn't get any help so he wrote something like this on SQL Team; "thanks for not helping. don't expect me to help you later". And a clever guy answered, "that's a risk/chance i am willing to take". I have tried to search for the topic here, to no vail. Anyone remember this?

I'm not just a clever guy. I'm a very clever developer too. |

I need to nominate myself for suggesting JimL run a script that basically thrashed his SQL instance.
I'll stand in the corner for the next week or so..

You taught him a valuable lesson about placing trust in scripts he doesn't understand.
I'm sure he has nothing but gratitude for that valuable lesson.
