Probably not intentionally...the original post was in the film slr section, so he only insulted those users. Unfortunately, they are some of the most helpful, steady, and mild-mannered people on the Pentax Forums!

It would be difficult to help him. He was having problems with reassembly of the shutter dial on a Super Program film camera. Unfortunately for him, that camera does not have a shutter dial. It has two buttons.

I read the first post regarding the Super Program shutter dial and did not respond because I had nothing to offer. Simply put.
There are literally only a handful of people on this site who would attempt a repair on a Super Program and maybe only one or two who have actually done such. The lack of response is a reflection of the level of expertise, nothing more. This is primarily a user's forum, not a repair site. The standard answer is to "send it to Eric" because most of us with experience know that repair of a valuable and not-easily-replaceable camera is best left to the pros.
Now, this site may well stink, but it is not because we willfully deny people helpful information. If we have a meaningful suggestion based on experience, it is usually offered within a few hours, if not minutes. It begs the question however, to expect that we can give a meaningful suggestion on a botched repair job when most of us would not have attempted the repair ourselves.
