Re: Stop neurotic posting

I've only been php coding for less than 2 months. I learn, learn, learn, only ask questions when research turns up nothing, and answer other's questions when I know the answer. andu wrote:

perhaps there should be two lists (novice and advanced), and the advanced listed shouldn't answer questions if it's considered trivial enough for the novice list to answer.

On many lists you get this kind of suggestion. Almost always the rebuttal is that the people who are in a position to help would then mostly congregate to the 'advanced' list leaving the helpless to fend for themselves on the 'beginners' list. In other words its usually a BAD idea.

I guess a better idea is if you are on a list to help others to just do it not moralize them. Forgot how it is as a newbie, start learning a new language.
