Seriously, why does everybody in the CakePHP community got their finger on the trigger to just rip any person that has a question a new one?
I mean, I have seen some pretty stupid questions in my time, and the ones here are nowhere near as bad as the ones that I've seen elsewhere. The thing that makes it different here, is that as soon as those 'stupid' questions come in, the person asking the question gets treated like shit for 5-10 posts until their question is answered (if at all). So what if you created CakePHP, so what if you've used it for the entirety of it's life, some people haven't, and those people have perfectly valid questions for the simple fact that the documentation for CakePHP is horrendous and any documentation that is out there, is spread so thin on the internet that looking for an answer is like trying to find the proverbial needle. I've seen people get called names (seriously, are we in 4th grade?), been told to look things up themselves, been harped on to no end, and all without the courtesy of a decent answer. I feel that if someone comes to the group with a question, EVEN IF IT'S BEEN ASKED BEFORE, it deserves an answer, or at least a _polite_ point in the direction of the answer (in the form of a link to the post, or the page with the answer, NOT a begrudged 'Google It, dumbass'). If you can't answer the question in a polite and decent manner, don't answer the question. Let somebody else who has far better people skills answer it. That way, the person asking the question will feel like they are important to the community. Because nothing kills a project faster than a shitty community, no matter what the project is. So get your head out of your 'Holier than thou' asses and lighten up. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
