    Have you helped a n00b lately?

    yeah, I know... posting this where the Lounge Lizards lay... I should be ashamed.

    But a quick run through FlashMX, Flash8, Flash General Help, Flash Video and even Scripting and Backend there's a few unanswered questions.

    I see that Tonytryout, pellepiano, iaskwhy, sportzguy933, and a ton of others are helping out; but why not some more?

    hell, even I've been helping out a little bit in the design areas.

    agreed!

    As a super moderator, you could threaten to ban those who post who post too much in the lounge....

    I'd have to start by banning myself. Nothing doing

    I help out every so often up there.

    I spent a few hours on the phone with a client trying to help them get their wireless adapter online before finally giving up and telling them I really don't do tech support.

    I am going to my bro-inlaws later to reformat and reinstall his notebook.

    I would love to help, but I'm anti-n00b and an elitist.

    That, and I haven't used Flash in years.

    I just dont remember when ?

    But if your go on xsibase.com or creativecow.net ... its a another thing.
    I ask you all to concentrate really hard on the freedom of all being. Its hard not to be very angry it is impossible We have to focus this confusion frustration helplessness feeling into a creative outlet Anger can spawn such amazing creativity through Street art Free art to teach each other know each other a language our evolution Go ahead and break some dumb rules

    I think I had this discussion with aversion or MarkP once...some of the n00b questions...just damn. I mean I know they don't know anything, but they're asking to win a track meet before they can crawl. Other times, you have no idea what it is they're asking. I'll have sympathy for the ones that just don't know English that well, but a lot of times I read something and just shake my head.

    Consider yourself helped, noob.

    If you need more, PM me, though all you need should be readily available.
