Where does all this sense of entitlement come from...?

This is going to be a rant of somewhat so, if you just don't want to hear it, click somewhere else.

When someone posts a dyno test or flow test or any concrete information MOST of the readers are glad to hear it and appreciative of whatever information is given freely.
BUT,
there are those few who question why it wasn't done this way or why you didn't also test another option or how come you stopped there and didn't go further...? Someone tell me exactly what gives them this sense of entitlement to be like that. They've probably never offered any test results of their own for public consumption ... never offered the parts to be tested or gaskets or compensation for whatever time it takes or anything of any kind.

I used to post a lot of test results and a lot of dyno information however, NOT any more. And this is the main reason why; rather than learning SOMETHING from the given test, the "wanna be, criticizers" belittle the data and bash the test as being of "no or little merit" or "not enough information" or simply judge the whole thing as being unworthy.

Well, I am saying here, (and have heard the cry from some other free information givers), to hell with those people!!! You can get your own parts and spend your own money and use your own time to get any information you like. I'm just not gonna give you any data anymore. You aren't satisfied with receiving whatever test results given that were FREE so, now you simply won't get any at all.

thats understandable... but you have to ask yourself, would this situation be any different anywhere else, or under any other circumstances almost anywhere in todays world? the answer is probably no. there will always be idiots who want more. dont make the ones that appreciate what has been offered suffer....but in the end its your data, and your call...

where does a guy get some fu fu sparkplug wire looms?................ just asking lol.

Guys ... as I said, most all who post are appreciative and soak up that specific knowledge like a sponge. Specific situations which arise for anybody needing information which has been tested will certainly be shared. PM's will certainly be addressed to help anyone if it's possible. BUT, nothing will be OFFERED to increase anyone's general knowledge.
Charlie, Lem and a few others know exactly the feeling of resentment this may cause and I'm just not of the inclination to go anywhere near there anymore. There can be no "entitlement" reaction if there is no beginning action to spark it.

EDIT: I know that when someone tells me something or gives me information which they have gotten through their hard work or time spent, I personally applaud them for doing what they did. If I happen to find that the information is not exactly to my liking, I will take it for what it's worth and move along. I have no grandeur thoughts of entitlement and I will never understand from where that sense comes from.

I for one dont gain much knowledge from reading internet forums.................phone still works for me

Some would rather be "pestered on the phone" than Have to type everything in a
public forum.......its all about the snake handlin'
