Anyway, newb's or not, people are ignorant at heart and too highly hasty.
Ignorance is one thing. Stupidity is completely different.
Ignorant people want to learn. Stupid people want their hands held.
It's the stupid people who piss everyone off.
Some people get pissed off when you expect them to *gasp* do a little reading and research to find an answer. I believe these are the people that most here are complaining about.iserlohn wrote:I would argue that an appropriate response is to point someone to the appropriate guide, not to give them a full answer, and politely but firmly remind them to check the guides in the future when they have questions.

And, personally, I have better things to do than hold someone's hand as they make their first video.
If someone doesn't understand the guides, it means that person does not have the rudimentary knowledge and/or common sense needed to do what the guides tell them to do. In such a case, what one needs to do is [erform some research and learn to udnerstand what the guides say to do.
