Jeeze guys....

I'll likely get banned for this but damn. You wonder why Litestep isn't growing and why themes are comming out at 1/10th the speed they did in the old days? hmmmm...

They call them n00bs for a reason, they don't know anything. The vast majority don't search and read, they never have. They come here for answers and all you guys can do is bash and ban. It's really sad.

I've been a teacher for many years and the 1 thing that keeps me going is kids brave enough and interested enough to ask questions. I don't care how mundane, ignorant or off the wall. If they want to learn I do EVERYTHING possible to ensure they do. I do everything possible to depen their interests, improve their skills and expand their understanding.

I don't ban them from the studio for asking where the brushes are when the drawer lables "BRUSHES" is 2 feet away.

Lighten up and help the newbies out any way you possibly can. Ridicule and banning at whim does nothing but breed contempt and ignorance.

On BOTH sides.
