[ubuntu-in] Some recommendations for posts (was Re: Foxpro 2.5 or similar software for linux)

[withblessings at gmail.com]

Hi,
Should show sympathy towards newbies who tries to have hands on experience
in linux.
Otherwise discouraged indirectly to use linux forever - which finds
difficult  to solve the problems
faced by newbies. As and  when  they get experienced and automatically learn
how to
googling and post when they failed. When newbies become expert, they will
not approach for
forum for solutions!!
As such should  not be harsh towards newbies.
