> There are all sorts of "special club" mentalities in programming. I've found this an interesting topic. I've seen a number of C++ communities where they are clearly disrespectful to new members or people who are new to the language/library. But yet on assembler forums I've seen people who made comments like "hey when I get home from work I'll create a sample program for you". Just remember one important fact before you call someone stupid for not finding that buried option in Visual Studio - there are people out there making twice as much as you are writing vulnerable shitty code. Try to show some humility to the guy asking questions - he is trying to at least make an effort to learn from you and others.
