I completely agree, the Reputation points one recieves and experience level they have does speak alot about what that person has done in respect to how much decent advice they have doled out in the past. Absolutely. The original thought was though, just mainly in regard to making somebody take some type of entrance exam to get in to the forums and post. Fuck all of the other bullshit i typed, the main idea was stated above. Having something like that implemented, would make people that want to get in here and be a part of it, have to find the answers to the questions that are being given to them. Lazy or not, even if you fuckin google every single question to find the answer, your going to have to read whatever that answer might be that your copying from whatever website, on to the quiz, so by default they would be learning something wether they want to or not.

It's impossible for them not to learn something when doing something like this, and even though they would have inner satisfaction thinking that they fooled the system, the reality of it all, is they accomplished exactly what we wanted them to, and that is to at least try and do a LITTLE research before coming on and doing their thing. They'd still be newbs of course, but they'd also have a lil sumpin sumpin rubbed off on them from what they were put through in the process of becoming a member of RIU, no?

THATS where i was going with my original thought on the first page. It wasn't said out of snobby elitism, or thinking that im better than anybody else, and It wasnt even about being tired of giving the same advice over and over to people. It was about giving people a chance to use the tools given, to answer a couple of quick questions, to show that they know how to research something if they need help with anything, and also in the process, have it be a learning experience at the same time, even for the laziest of the batch of newbs.

Boric acid?! Wow.... Yes, it'll kill pretty much all forms of life(wonderful to control ants). Very toxic shit if ingested.

You can also make silly puddy type of stuff from it(20 Mule Team Borax is used), Elmer's glue, and water. It's sticky and gooey. I believe there was a product called Gack(sp?) with a very similar consistency. Does wonders for laundry and general cleaning, though.

I definitely agree, people need to do more research, and verify shit for themselves. Sorry about your plants. Live and learn.

Chronic insomnia? Nothing better to do than post on RIU all night?

Plants grow/'take care of' themselves, for the most part.
