Hi John,
I just got the game, and did have a lot of questions. I tried to consolidate as much as possible. I did search around, probably not as much as I maybe should have, and asked questions here when I felt I needed to. Then some guy named frogdog hits me with this, which I thought was way out of line:
"You know what...I've been on this forum for a few monyhs. First...read the damn manual, read the myriad threads, read the wiki and use some common sense. The game is played by a host of people around the world....in their experience...every evolution is NOT a design/readme failure. Nobody here has ever had a problem with newbie questions....but goddamnit everyone here expects the questioners to know how to change their own diapers for statrers. This is not the hand-holding first friggin' grade....The GODS help those who first help themselves....whinners and fault-finders are exiled to and early, permant grave.
I do not apologize in advance for comments...and will acknowledge I am an intolerant, impaitent jerk....nonetheless...you would last exactly one nanosecond in my crew.
That having been said...do a little research first...if the answer is still not forthcoming...ask. If you just want to -spank me!- and moan, heres a quarter...call someone who cares."
So I sent my response to him and that ended pretty quickly. I admitted that I can search around more and have since done that. But often I can't find everything i'm looking for and now i'm afraid to ask them here. I'm good now I think. I got past most of my initial questions and only have a few hear and there so i'll keep asking away here. I guess a couple people like frogdog and jscones got annoyed with all my questions. I just look at it like I am definitely doing my part to help keep the site alive. Lol
