Homebrew We need to remove these stupid help threads

[Zabhahs]

They clog things up, cant they post in a stickied thread so that only actual pertinent things appear and its not just questions/fake ideas

What about complaint threads, can we clear those up too?

What's wrong with asking questions?

Well we do have the noob thread in the flashcard section that's supposed to be for that, but the people that should use it; don't. I mean at least they are seeking help, not just clogging the forum to complain about something they can't stop. You could limit people from creating new threads until they have XX amount of posts. Although that wouldn't really help, since I see people with over 1K that are dumb as rocks.

I'd argue too that "noob" questions are technically subjective. What one person considers simple another may find quite difficult; which I'm trying to understand myself as I honestly expect people to think a little but I digress. You can only expect so much from people on the internet.

If people couldn't create their own help threads it would just cause confusion and make this place quite boring in my opinion. If everyone posted everything in one thread their posts would get buried almost instantly. If this place was only full of [Release] threads and [Tutorials] with no comments, it would be boring as well. I don't know about most people but I actually enjoy helping others around here. I'd honestly probably just revert to a lurker if that happened Lol.
