Same here, but not ashamed about it at all. If there's something I need to automate or change in emacs, it's just a web search away and I can find the elisp that I need to add into my config files. I'd consider myself an advanced user of emacs, but that still doesn't mean that I have any motivation to write any new emacs modes or functions, since just about everything I could ever want already exists!
