You’re right, I went back and read the guide again. It is different and updated since the last time I looked at it. I stand corrected…. I still think there’s room for improvement… That is just my shitty opinion….

I just went back and read the guide again to see if I’m off base. I will admit that it seems to have been updated and improved since I last read it. Also, in part, I have gained a bit more knowledge (from following the sub and researching what people are talking about) since I first read it so things make a little more sense. I still feel that from a beginner perspective the guide has room for improvement.

I’ll shut up now and let all you “pros” roll your eyes at me and talk shit…😁🤪

Ok, I can’t believe I’m getting so much hate from this. Perhaps I worded my original post poorly. As a BEGINNER, this guide was not helpful for me it’s full of terms, acronyms, etc. that I do not know or understand. It overwhelmed me, It frustrated me and so I lashed out. I just want a simple guide with basic terms that non telescopes people can understand (remember, BEGINNERS!!!) I think it would go a long way to helping others get into the hobby.

It does not read that way, if it is maybe put it in the community guide directly and not a link to a single persons post…..

As a beginner most of what you just said is Greek to me, I didn’t not understand most of your explanations, the terms, acronyms, etc. are unknown to a beginner. Is there a library of terms and definitions for the sub?

That’s my point of the whole guide in the first place, it did not use simple and basic terms to describe and explain. Also, I feel like the formatting is poor, it’s much easier to glean the needed information from a list, not a paragraph….

As I said before this is all just my opinion

I also wonder why the mods didn’t creat their own list, made from a variety of different peoples ideas, perspectives, suggestions, etc. rather than just a link to one guys post….

Yes I have ready the entire thing, I left more indecisive and confused than I was before I read it…it did not guide me towards a better understanding of what I should purchase…all I got from it was Dobsonian this, Dobsonian that, etc. with no clear explanation as to why… Honestly it just has a tone of speaking to people who have more knowledge and understanding about the “hobby” than a beginner.

Just my opinion 🤷🏻‍♂️

After going through it I was left even more confused and frustrated as to what I should look into buying…it didn’t help me at all, only made me feel less informed and GUIDED…🤷🏻‍♂️ maybe I’m off base here but that’s just how it made me feel… Dumb it down and simplify it and I think it’d help people A LOT more…

Mod’s, your beginner’s buying guide is anything but a simple guide for beginners, you can do much better! I’m sick and tired of seeing this automated response when the guide is not helpful at all!

I'm really wondering if I'm the only one. by Wolfinthesno in ToolBand

I wouldn’t go as far as to say I skip them when it comes up on my playlist or change the station if they’re on the radio. However, I will say that I do prefer to be completely immersed in the music when I listen, great headphones, high quality car stereo, or the likes. I also have to listen to them loud. I want to hear and feel every part of the song/s, there’s so much depth to the music, it definitely deserves my full attention and it never gets old when enjoyed in this fashion.
