All posters on here are equal. 

In what way, education, talent, wealth, ambition, class?  please amplify, 

any one ignorant to that is the problem. 

What does that mean? 

What parts are you struggling with?
 All.
Posters.
Are.
Equal. 
All of them. 
Really not that hard to comprehend, or shouldn't be.
People that don't understand that are the problem, some of which are long established posters.

Your rudeness does not deserve an answer

Part of the problem^

But people are not equal.  some are healthier, some are wealthier, and some are wiser.  If you think that, you are sadly delusional

But none of that matters here. Yes people in general are different but here everyone is a poster. Doesnt matter how much knowledge they have, their status is the same. Some posters need to remember that, they might have experience of some parking issues but they arent infallible. Some might forget their login for example.

As a fly on the wall, my observations are as follows:
1. There was a time when forums such as this sought to assist people fight UNFAIR parking charges. 

Most of the regulars are now willing to assist anyone’s who asks, regardless of the circumstances of the case; even where the driver deserved a PCN (don’t  worry I expect the usual ‘ALL parking charges are unfair’ BS comments to follow).
As such, it should be no surprise that every man and his dog asks for help without helping themselves; as it would be far easier for them to just pay the £60 than spend the disproportionate time doing their own research i.e they are looking for a free ride, both in relation to the the parking event and side stepping the consequences.
2. Rather than moan about questions being asked, why not simply ignore the post? I see regulars stating ‘don’t ask this and don’t ask that’, or chastise people for not understanding the stickies; rather than be rude,  just keep scrolling if it bothers you that much (this is not a job, it is not mandatory for you to contribute to EVERY thread).
I await the inevitable abuse 😊

There was another one this week as well; someone who parked in front of a building just because it was closed.

Rings bells of another thread DPD .... ignore is the best policy as MSE advises

Reported.

Too much time is spent on trying to extract information from the poster especially what the actual transgression is, the car park, the PPC and where they are in the process.

There are posters actually talking about counterclaims before they have given any consideration to how they will argue the case.  

Ultimately,  I feel we are all after the same goal, fighting for what's right and not being bullied by the big boys. 

We certainly are.  There are some who need a lot of help which is either given by regulars and carefully reading the Newbies thread.  On the other hand, there are many we do not see on here who go on to win simply from the information given. I'm not sure "big boys" is correct, they are a collection of companies operating within a cartel and once the chain is broken on any issue, they collapse.

 but here everyone is a poster.

Indeed, and some posters are a joy to work with, and some a PITA, therefore imo they are not equal.

Most of the regulars are now willing to assist anyone’s who asks,

I disagree.  A recent poster who used a disabled space as he was late for prayers received very short shrift.  Bilkers and trespassers are also not encouraged.
