    I’m still learning to read through and interpret documentation and it often get way too over my head that I need to ask the community for help; […]

    And there’s nothing wrong with that. And if you just ask, not even nicely, you’ll usually get productive help. I know I’ve provided help many times, no matter how “noobish” the question.

    […] and honestly, I don’t like to because of reactions like yours.

    If you don’t act like a massive asshole, you don’t get such reactions.

    It’s really disheartening to come to the community, try to ask for help and to be told that I should just do it right, or to catch flak for not asking the rifht question, or to have someone share a chunk of code and say, “just use this,” which doesn’t help me learn.

    He didn’t come and asked. He ranted and shat on everything and everybody. He even received some help despite that. His reaction was offensive and more verbal diarrhea.

    To be clear, my previous comment was a pre-coffee and just irked me in the wrong way; I do owe you an apology for that so, sorry.

    Don’t sweat it. My skin is thicker than that.
