Thumbs up Beginner Guide To Everything!!!

...has already been posted on this forum. Have some curteousy and do yourself, and others, a favor and look through the forums yourself, like we/they did, PLEASE. Chances are, your "New post/please help/how do you do this" thread is gonna be answered saracstically anyway because it's been answered several if not a hundred times already.

These forums are not a mystery. There are direct threads dealing with help topics as well as Sticky's to either teach or link you in the right direction.

...and since I don't have the points, nor do I think it would do any good to sticky this again, I'll just update it everyday to keep close to the top.

Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain..we can be like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper
Baby take my hand...don't fear the reaper
We'll be able to fly...don't fear the reaper
Baby I'm your man...

Re: Beginner Guide To Everything!!!

Yea, I get tired of answering the noob questions sometimes. Its like good grief for the 500th time Goto my fourm and LOOK at the tutorials or support section maybe? Or the million other noob questions about MCD. And many others.

Don't get me wrong I don't mind helping others. But its usually pretty obvious when people dont' atleast try to help themselves first.

FYI, its been tried already, stickied and everything. Read Before Posting A Question!!!

But despite the valiant efforts of pai pai we're doomed to answer the same 10 questions day in and day out in new threads.

Re: Beginner Guide To Everything!!!

anyone who asks a question that was answered in the op page of a sticky should be shot lol.

but it happens all the time.

if you sticky yet another n00b guide, it'll get ignored too.

Re: Beginner Guide To Everything!!!

No no no, I don't want it stickied. Cuz perosnally, I don't pay much attention to them either. Not when "Mod This..." and ".dat here" catch my eye from below. I want it left right here in the main Topic area so that when someone asks a question the link to this post can be pasted in their response.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all about helping people, too. But, when you're telling 100 people a month where to get Model Viewer from and how to export FFXI models, it gets a little redundant and seems counterproductive to our efforts. Like everyone said, modding takes work. If they don't even have the drive and motivation to search through help forums and stickys, then they're prolly not gonna be much of an assett in the mod community.

i agree, to be a modder takes initiative, if they can't look, try things out for themselves and you have to hold thier hand the whole way, you'll be better off teaching a monkey.

luckilly no one can buy an accout of a level 60 modder, the works speak for themselves
