Kolusu, thank you for the history lesson, I personally would never 'advertise' (suggest) this site if I knew how low some folks will go to sell answers, I know of a couple of industries that do this, ask.com, I think was the first site I ever came across that you could ask a question and for a nominal price get an answer. As I mentioned, being a novice myself at one time, I needed help with a SYSPLEX issue, I asked here, well, IBM-MAIN, and no one paid attention, at the time the hot topic for MVS folks was Windows related, I pointed that out that this was a MAINFRAME forum and was immediately shamed and flamed by Mark Zelden + others , that was the only reason why I came across that other site . I've been a SYSPROG since 1993 came up from operations, I'm not as smart as most here but I do try and provide help when I can, and continue to read the Q+A here. again thanks for reaching out to me and not shaming me more on the forum

I was a member of those sites and provided numerous answers (skolusu) and quit when they started forcing ads. >I have much more work to do than research other sites. I only pointed out because you are promoting a sham site. Nothing against you.
