Same experience with this particular OP on another forum.

Some people aren't really looking for advice as much as they're looking for attention, it seems.

LOL,  We have just been discussing a variation of this behavior in https://www.therailwire.net/forum/index.php?topic=54578.msg748843#msg748843

Once I realized that Bruce did not want to understand the concept of magnet's polarization and how it affects MTL uncoupling,  (after several attempts) I threw in my towel. And I was even going to draw a diagram of why his magnet arrangement did not work.  :|

Gad, I see that Charlie got bleeped for using the proper term for automatically slowing a freight car.  The "automated stupidity" filter (as opposed to an actual artificial intelligence filter") must have mistaken that for an insulting term for a mentally diminished person. Can we get a more intelligent filter, so that we can use proper terms?
We increasingly only have artificial intelligence because natural intelligence is a rapidly diminishing phenomenon….
