If you look at some of the older question you can see there has been a general shift in the way people help others. They used to be a lot more helpful and there was less "arrogance." Something what you think might be trivial might not be for someone else.
- V-2 13y agoThere are people who just drop their homework assignment on SO, not even bothering to write a single word from themselves. They just expect users to serve them solution on a plate, doing their homework for them. And apparently they're sure it goes without saying. Now that's arrogance, no double quotes necessary
- swasheck 13y agoThis is an important observation. As more users arrive, the quality of both questions and answers drops. They work hand-in-hand.
- rubyn00bie 13y agoWho cares if they do? They're only hurting themselves and many others may find it useful. It's like going 65mph in the fast lane, when the person behind you wants to do 80mph. "They shouldn't be going that fast," but they are and they're going to. Best not worry about it yourself, and let them get pulled over and learn the lesson on their own. I personally agree with the sentiments of the OP. I am often shocked at some responses, and threads closed marked as "non-constructive." It seems counter-intuitive for learning and sharing knowledge (to me).
- V-2 13y agoWho cares - the OP, perhaps? I have no way of knowing whether cases like that aren't the ones he's referring to. Noone (including yourself) has come up with any examples yet.
