Default RE: Teaching/helping without being arrogant?

It only takes about 3 seconds before you will realize whether your audience is receptive, or if they arejust looking to argue/complain. Usually in person, I'm pretty nice no matter what, but on here - I maximize my entertainment value.

So, I'd say give 'em what they want. If they want to argue, feel free to be an arrogant, pompousjerk anduse the opportunity toenjoy yourself. If they're actually trying to learn something, be helpful and bestow infinite wisdom to their eager ears.

Worst case scenario is that you make them mad,and they get online to try and prove you wrong, at which point they will discover that you were actually correct. [:-] LOL Atthat point, they will resort to calling you a city-dwelling lowlife yuppie treehugger and proceed with their miserable existence,then proceedtalk about how the new generation of silver-spoon cityfolk is destroying hunting as we know it.
