silverm00n Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Ok I know this is probably a stupid question. I know what tarts look like, but what are they used for... what do they do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slyfoxy46628 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 No question is a stupid question unless it's one that is not asked. That said, a tart is like a candle but has no wick and you put it in a tart burner (either tealight heat or electric heat) and it melts and smells your house up good. Hope that helps.

Ring of Fire Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Are you serious? Sounds like a plant to me to see how many stupid people will answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slyfoxy46628 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 What do you mean "it sounds like a plant"? So you're calling me stupid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ring of Fire Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 What do you mean "it sounds like a plant"? So you're calling me stupid?A plant is someone asking a silly question just to see how many people will respond seriously to it. This is a candle board, is it not?

Janette Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Who cares if the question is a plant or a question? It is possible that this was a real question and if so, the asker is likely hiding by now. Janette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demenshia Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Not to mention it is entirely possible that the person that asked has only heard them referred to as melts...I know when I first started here I didn't know what a "tart" was. I knew what pillars, and votives were, that was about it lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverm00n Posted August 23, 2006 Author Share Posted August 23, 2006 I really didn't know what it was, that's why I asked. I didn't even know ppl "plant" questions. I don't know why someone would do that in the first place. That's why I responded saying that I felt sheepish after finding out what they were. Thank you slyfox, demenshia, and janette, I appreciate you answering my stupid question instead of ignoring it, or judging me for it. Thanks again, and sorry for any confusion.

amyp Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Hey silver, I know how you feel. People can be really harsh on this board. You might do a search and find some other boards out there that won't bash you for asking questions. I lurke a lot on this board, and have learned a ton from reading all the posts, but I don't ask very many questions because I don't want to get land blasted by people who don't think I have done enough research. After all, I thought this it what these boards were for was to help each other out. Good Luck. Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slyfoxy46628 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 I know how you feel too silvermoon. I've asked questions before that maybe the pros know but I'm just starting and I don't know anything so I ask a question and everyone jumps on me saying to go look in archives blah blah blah. Well excuse me for asking a simple question. It makes me not want to ask any questions because you're afraid of the responses that you'll get. I don't like getting yelled at so most of the time I don't ask. I thought this was an advice board. LOL But there are some really nice people in here so stick with it.

BrandNewToCandles Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Are you serious? Sounds like a plant to me to see how many stupid people will answer.So unnecessary.Personally, I think it's much more stupid to ignore the question and waste your time typing a useless and demeaning reply, but that's just me.

Godiva Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I've asked a few questions, but mostly browse. During the course of my browsing, I've noticed that the majority of people on this board are eager to help, only a select few make comments that appear IMO rude. And before I became interested in candles and started researching, I couldn't tell you what a pillar or votive was, definitely couldn't tell you the difference between a tart or a clamshell. I'm sure most people aren't born with the knowledge of candlemaking and had to learn from scratch, too. Maybe they just forgot what it's like to start out.This board has been very helpful, so it's easy to look past the few rude comments and look toward the positive ones. Although a few comments have raised my eyebrows and make me wonder what could've happened that caused that person to have such a bad day.
