What's so ludicrous about flaming less experienced programmers, is that many times more effort is put into the flame than if they'd just have answered the question. Everyone one of us was a beginner at some point!

I hate doing so but sometimes its needed. > If someone asks a question on the list and another person thinks it to simple, that other person has 3 choices; either answer it, point the questioner to the place where the answer is or not post at all. People should not be afraid to post their questions because they feel that someone will flame them or their question will be silly or simple. This is a list for all. > If the behavior of flaming simple, common or any other question continues, I'm going to be forced to assign homework to the flamer. > "If your so good at this that you can bash someone else for asking the question, then you have to write up a short FAQ to answer the question". I think that if enough of these FAQs are written then maybe it'll cut down on what some feel are easy or silly questions. I can't do this alone until someone decides to pay me for hosting the lists and community work. I barely have enough time as is.
