Most of which, it should be pointed out, has been written with the blood, sweat and tears of the very posters who some of the noobs on here are complaining about.

This guy had fantastic hair.
What are you saying? Meauxna and Rete have admitted to their crimes against BE, and been sent for re-education?

that may be so but it is still rude, some "Newbies" don't know how to do a search or the search feature just does not work well. Isn't just simpler to anwser a question in a civil manner than to give some snarky remark.

You contributed a nice article once about getting a B2 as a crim -- hope you put that in the wiki. If you didn't, please do. because that's one more than the rest of the whiners on here.

No. I am saying Stalin had nice hair. There is no connection. I just needed to share that picture.

Nope. I never added it to the wiki, and as far as I'm concerned that's a moderators responsibility anyway.

What I will do though, and continue to do so, is respond to similar queries regarding CIMT/ waiver of ineligibility etc by posting a link to that thread and pointing out any helpful info from my own experience and knowledge.

They've managed to google out this site, what's one more step in a major life changing event?

Folks who at least try that and then say they still couldn't find anything get a much better reception than someone who hasn't even bothered trying that...

It's a wiki...the whole point is that anyone with information can contribute to it.

IF you have information you think should be in there and either can't be arsed to create a page or know how to go about it, but have the information at hand, asking in Site Feedback, or a mod will get you started.

Oh, I see, so you have to take the time to type out that you bothered to search the site before you post, before you can expect an answer to your the question in a civil way...good to know will keep that in mind.
