I’m here too. If I see a question where I can say, I think I know the answer but I’ll bet someone has a better answer, I wait. I don’t necessarily want to spend an hour answering something and double-checking I’m right or setting up a test DB or webserver or whatever just to see another monk scooped me with a better answer 5 minutes before I post.

But if I see a *terrible* answer I know to be wrong, I’ll put the effort in a bit more readily. No beginner deserves to spend two weeks chasing bad advice only to give up and try Python or whatever in the end.

Well explained, and I think that reflects the majority here. :)

Proof: Nobody loved correcting sundial!

(maybe with the exception of The Great Node Collector ;-)
