If i were a betting man, I would wager that over 25% of the american population would not recognize Prince William.

What kind of dog is this?

Also, despite the fact that I do recognize Price William, he's the figurehead-to-be of what is a largely failed nation. It think its even more embarrassing that far more people would recognize him than Angela Merkel or Hu Jintao

Hooray for the internet, welcome to the 21st century.

If this person ever becomes "a part of the community," PM me and I will arrange some sort of prize for you.

Good, they should be forced to run a gauntlet. Those who stick around might actually be worth keeping in the end.

I say this as someone who also showed up and started asking idiotic questions right off the bat. It was because I was rebuffed that I learned to stop looking for handouts and start researching information on my own. When I felt I had learned enough to start contributing, I did so regularly. If I had not been interested enough, I'd have left. I doubt I'd have been missed.

I certainly don't lose sleep at night over all the people we might be turning away. This isn't a recruitment drive.

While not so extreme, I received a similar response when I put forth a similar question.

A question to the moderators -- why are jerks like this not banned? People here seem to be banned for less, and this person's response is not only rude and arrogant, but downright douchebag-y.

It's an online forum and a discussion board. People ask questions. If you don't want to answer that is your prerogative. But trying to browbeat new members with your highhanded holiness is not something I'd expect from a "style" forum.

You, sir, have no manners and have no class. You should be ashamed of yourself. Someone probably forgot to smack your bottom and teach you some basic human courtesy and politeness when you were 3.

It's a spread collar dress shirt, with blue and white ckecks.

Let me tell you, it's not the 50+ threads per day started by new members about how to wear brown shoes that make this place worth visiting. Instead, I have to trawl through fifteen pages of **** every day to find a single interesting topic because so much time and energy is being wasted by members to educate parasites who have no genuine interest in clothing and disappear a few days later.

On a more specific note, it is a very stupid ******* question. Leaving aside the implication that the OP doesn't know who Prince William is, we can't even understand what's being asked. Does he want to know about the styling of the shirt? What the pattern is called? What brand it is? What the ****?

Basically, noobs should lurk and not post for at least 6 months.

elitist bullshit.

why don't you try and be a decent human being. if you were really trying to "teach the newbie a lesson" then PM him. otherwise you're just showing off like an insecure jerk.

Stop getting so butthurt. If it's really stupid then why even post in the first place. You're the one acting immature. It's the internet, whoop-dee-doo. It's such a chore to skip over topics because you have to scroll a little more.

Most of royal family's clothes are custom made but I believe that Turnbull and Asser are their tailors or one of them.

I know Ascot Chang has the pattern.
