Do stupid annoying questions bother you?

  Bother me, kind of, but it would seem like they are just trying to be stupid. If that were the case i'd just ignore them or block em.

  Oh here is a stupid question for all of you to watch, i should of taken a screen shot of the convo but i didnt.
  A lann character of like lvl 38 i believe maybe 36 asked
  "Is 1080(or whatever that number is) a magic attack?"
  
  Like i was dumbfounded about that. Logically speaking the attack physically hits the target, so it should be a physical attack! It would be really odd if lann had some random magic attack.
  he said, "but lann has a magic attack stat so it must be a magic attack"
  omg! really? has he ever played an rpg in his life? every character has a base magic/int.
  So i told him in a way that wasnt hard for him to understand "it doesnt take brains to spin around alot"
  he kept telling me not to talk to him about logic, because nobody is sure that lanns 1080 attack is not magic, because noone in the forums every clearly says that its a physical attack.

  I'm not really annoyed, I just take the opportunity to berate them for being inconceivably stupid and laugh. Being a sadist is fun =3 Though I'll probably answer the question instead if it isn't really that dumb of a question.

  Woah. Just wow. You just found a new breed of speartard. You should've just told him that that's a brilliant observation and that he should support it by wearing cloth armor to boost his intelligence and find a non existent weapon with matk. No better yet, get him to buy a scythe or staff from you for some extra cash since Lanns can't make them. If he really does it, it'd make your day =P

  I think some questions are either cute or very very laughable.
  
  Like the one below:
  
  "Hey, I'm in mouse mode, where's my cursor? I can't click on anything!"
  
  "Hold down ESC or ALT"
  
  "Thanks!"
  
  Such a cute question, it's like watching a child finding something new and wonderful.

  :( Why do I never get to see awesome questions like that? That has gotta be the cutest question I've seen so far.

  I think it's just kind of silly that some of us who answer the questions, wouldn't know the answers either except for one fact: We looked things up or tried things on our own. D:

  
  
  This is an important point. I run into people a lot who ask me things they could figure out for themselves if they could but make a half-hearted effort to help themselves before asking others.
  
  I generally don't mind helping people out. However, I quickly go into a rage when someone can demonstrate that they've absorbed my teachings one day, only to show me they forgot everything a few days later.
  
  
  TL;DR Please, try and help yourself first and don't ask me the same question more than once.
