Attacking one person on here is not the reason for a bad community. I honestly think as we learn the game and etc some of us get the info we need and move on...Some don't bother to reply and help others or some just get tired of it and give some snide comment and some stay and are very helpful to this community.
We were all new at this and all needed help. Yes, some us of know how to do a "Good Search"and yes some of us find our answers right away. Then there are some that need some extra help from someone helpful that knows what their doing even tho they've read it a hundred times. There is a way to be helpful without making people feeling stupid or make them feel like there is no hope for them even having a shard. I've seen this done on here with numerous people that did have the knowledge to help them.
Then you get the flames wars such as now. People post a problem and then someone posts back being rude and unhelpful and then the flames get started and go on and on. As I posted earlier put them in their place when they are rude , say something. Well I was wrong! What I think needs to be done is a Mod take control over these posts and warn them, whatever you have to do to put a stop to it. I think when a flame war starts or there are posters that make people feel stupid for posting, then let the "Mod" handle it....Thats just my opinion, because flames are getting old on here and they can go on and on.
As I said before why waste your time posting if your not going to help or make someone feel stupid? You could point them in the right direction..This is like a teaching place and there are some really good Teachers here. I don't know anything about scripts except putting them into my shard and thats all I want to know about scripting.Lol. I've been on these boards for over 2 years now *with another name* But I will help anyone that needs it if I know what I am talking about and if I don't know then I will do a search and try and help them. I try to remember when I first started out and all the questions I had and I try to be helpful to others that started out. Nobody owes anyone anything here, but you don't have to post if you can't be helpful or point them in a direction they need to go in or if you just want to be rude. I've seen it so many times by numerous players. Theres no reason for it.
I just hope we have more helpful people in this community and be good Teachers for the ones that are starting out and may need that extra little help. Good luck on your shards and good luck to all the new people starting out and learning as you go. This is a good place to learn and grow in knowledge of the game.
Just my opinion of things.
