Value of the HE forums?

[tyfromm]

IMO when you start reading the Holdem forums you learn, after a period of time and information learned the amount of new or challenging information or posts will go down. Not because of spamming or newbies "ruining" the content but because you have learned the bulk of what these forums have to offer. Logically you can either pick up the torch and fill the shoes that the heroes you talk about from your early days and help newbies or like in poker move up to a new level of discussion (Probability, Theory) but don't flame new posters for wanting to talk about playing 4 tables at 0.5/1.

The attitude that newbies playing low limit hold'em aren't good enough to post in the micro limit forum is elitist at horrendously pompous.

Waiting for posts that you can flame and belittle others is also immature. Putting someone down so that you yourself look better is a form of bragging.
