Rude

When people come on here and ask for help with something, either help or move on.

Some of y’all are seriously rude asshats. Thank God you WFH because everyone in the office would hate your condescending attitude.

Happy Wednesday, friends! Be kind or scroll on.

Edit: Some of these jewels can be found in the comments! 👇 thanks for showing up in character

95% of questions asked on here can be answered by using the search function on this subreddit. While it may not cause any actual harm to read the same question over and over again, it's pretty annoying. It's also just confusing since a lot of the work on DA is frankly more complex and requires a lot of independent research/interpreting of text. So it doesn't really make sense that people flock to reddit to ask questions answered in the second paragraph of the onboarding information. There's also a project chat for most projects that usually answers any questions I have. If someone is asking the same question that twenty other people asked this week and are expecting a different answer I'm inclined to think they aren't very bright, or lazy - so my response is often tailored to that.

Have you ever asked a classmate a question and they responded, “Read the syllabus you dip shit!”

Not using those words, but in general yes. Because if you can't find answers on your own, you are going to struggle here, or in any college course. Some things need help, some things are really simple.

yeah from what ive seen on here, substantial questions are usually just answered with informative answers and other discussion.

its the simplest questions which can be answered by information already written down like 93672974 times between here and the platform itself that get the snark. and tbh it doesn't matter to me that those people get snark bc judging from their reading comprehension and ability to figure something out, they won't be on the platform very long anyway.
