I hope that you take this as a good lesson when you leave here. You only get one chance to make a first impression.
You are not at the center of the universe. You must have led a sheltered life up till now, let me clue you in. Other people are not obligated to help you. Especially when you fail to follow their rules. Note: This is not your average internet website. It is the home of SF personnel and you are not yet one of us.
When you arrive in a new area, whether real or virtual, it is a good idea to look around and get a feel for the place before you start making noises and issuing demands. You should make an effort to have all of your senses on high alert and your situational awareness should be very keen. In this case, a few minutes of reading before you started posting would have told you everything you needed to know to fit in, ask the right questions, and be accepted.
If you encounter someone who is a regular there, you would be well served to comply with whatever requests they make before proceding further. That includes reading as requested, filling in your profile, and using proper grammar.
Most people find it better to lurk as a "gray man" for a while before jumping right into an argument with a local and ignoring his suggestions. It is not always a good idea to draw attention to yourself. The bird with bright plumage had better be a fast flyer.
I spent a couple of years making new SF Engineer Sergeants, you are not displaying the characteristics I was looking for in them. Low SA and attempts to argue with physical laws equals a short tenure, if not an abbreviated lifespan.
If you should choose to return and start over again, please keep all of that in mind.
Good luck with whatever career you pursue.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
