Why do people bitch about helping newbies??

I don't under stand why people say stupid shit like " oh I'm sick of holding newbies hand walking them threw there grow bla bla bla". We I thought that is what this was fo asking for help or advice sharing ideas and experiences. So if you don't want to help some one or give advice the DON'T . But don't waste your time reading the post AND REPLYING " go read a book" instead of just answering the question. People have to start somewhere. And sometimes reading it in a book and doing or seeing it for yourself could be challenging. And Once again I THOUGHT THAT IS WHAT A FOURM WAS FOR. DON'T READ THREADS YOU DON'T WANT TO ANSWER !! Instead of being rude maybe give people some advice help or encouragement. Don't waste your time writing stuff like "we can't grow your plants for you" or "go read a book". I have seen more of that than people just answering?????
I asked for help once. The only response I got was a response from a man who told me something along the lines of "I want you to buy a shovel, go out into the woods and dig a hole. Now lay in it and shoot yourself in the head".

I haven't asked riu for help since then :lol:

Yeah man, the dude even followed me around a little after that thread to fuck with me lol.

In his defense, I asked a really dumb question.... a question that I could have found the answer to in a 5 minute google search.

People who bitch about helping noobs likely don't know much and therefore can only bitch or troll on them. Now, of course, there are noobs who ask dumb fuck questions... which does deserve a troll or three... But I think you will find that people are helpful to noobs when the noob in question is asking a thoughtful, serious question.

I feel this thread is a bitch/complaint... and so you therefore fall in one of the three categories mentioned above...

I'd help people out if I knew what I was doing. I'm a newb myself, I'm on my first grow right now. But I do like to help other newbs with their newbie questions that I probably just found the answer to. Pass around knowledge guys..

Cause they are assholes and want to feel superior. They forget that they once sucked at growing. ...and probably still do.

Well being a mod has nothing to do with it. If you prick us do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? Come on now, calling someone an asshole that bitches about helping a noob is wrong??? Don't you feel that "bitches" is too strong of a word? Noobs need all the help they can get; if someone doesn't want to help then they should stay out of the noob section or just not answer the question. I could use my ninja/Jedi powers to stop it but I can't do that here because that's against the rules.
