More like newbie ignorance, experienced frustration
What are you talking about it's been months since I've seen a post like that and i'm here all the time. What so called "newbie"s fail to do is their fair share of research, a mistake i made when i first came here. But back then the site was young, and there was no super super search, and it wasn't in the q'n'a, so finding info when you had no clue was a bit trying, but it's been 50+ thousand nodes since i joined, and there's plenty of stuff you can find now even if you have no clue.

All you newbies, just quit being lazy.
I've seen to many a post just asking solve my problem, and plenty of ones saying where do i look, and the latter on could've been answered in the cb.

So here's what you newbies should do, scour the site for an hour, and chatter in the cb, and if by then you can't get started on your own, go back and read all the stuff you found. Do a lot of work, go back and read'n'roam again, and then do a lot more work, and if still have a problem, post what it is, and what you got so far in the appropriate section.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
