CaptainAlias said:mom2boys said:WOW! I read thru the exchange between you and Minyan who seems to be rather new and trying to help. An answer to your question might be found by calling National and asking them directly instead of relying on posts here if you are unable to find the info where Minyan told you. It is unreasonable to expect someone to link for you. You should be able to search using the info provided. If not, just call them and ask.
Minya- please don't get discouraged when some of us get grumpy! (We are all guilty of it and I will be the first in line!!)
Let us know what you find out!
I would call National, but it's generally faster and more efficient to glean information from other members who have more knowledge than I do on the matter, hence my question. Look at every single thread in Hot Deals or Travel Deals, or anything else. It's full of posts of people asking questions and seeking answers. Are they stupid questions? Perhaps sometimes. Are they obvious questions? Perhaps, yes as well, but it's in the spirit of the forum to share information with fellow FWers. Have I answered a hundred stupid repetitive questions from noobs asking what extra care bucks are? yes, but I don't go around negging their posts. And please note that Minyan negged my original question post even before I replied. You knew the answer, why not share it?
Of course I'm going to get angry if Minyan says, "It's on the National website". If M knows, then why not share some information in the spirit of FW? I already checked the National website prior to asking my question, and watched both EA and ES intro videos, and didn't find them particularly helpful. Now I'm going to be renting from National in the next month, and I will be happy to share my experiences with my fellow FWers, if asked. I don't know why so many reds, but I totally agree with you. If you don't like the questions asked, just leave it there, there might be some other people who are willing to help. You should not expect everyone to know exactly the same thing as you. As for either calls or google, almost everything could be found out by either internet searching or direct calling, the only difference is how easy it is. It might take someone a couple of hours to google out the answer, while if posted, might only take someone a few seconds to answer. If you argue that all questions that could be googled or called should not be posted, then why should there be any questions asked at all??? Regarding the contributions, if all people are as harsh as those giving reds, how dare we post a deal? I've asked my questions, and I answered questions whenever I could, no matter how obvious and how easy they seemed, that was what I thought this forum was for, for people to help each other. Now after reading this post, I understand how lucky I was since for all the questions I asked, I didn't get any response like what you got. |
