Part of the reason why people get annoyed with newbies in this thread sometimes is that a lot of the questions asked are answered in the first post...which many don't even read. Or if they do, they sort of browse through it so quickly that they don't even notice the info they're looking for. :p

I look at it as if the thread was a book, most of us read from the beginning to understand whats going on but some ppl read the last page and ask questions about the rest.
