"As a reader, you have the right to not answer that question, but do not, under any circumstances, berate a person for asking a 'common' question, or a question that can be easily answered."

I'm sorry, Dundee, if I wasn't clear. It's about him being too lazy to help himself. It's one thing if he looked but couldn't find it, or if he lost his manual, but it's a totally different thing to not read it whatsoever. (Note he specifically said he's "too busy" to read the manual.)

I get frustrated when people try to learn games by skipping steps. There's a certain amount of legwork that the gamer must do, or at least attempt, for himself. Relying entirely on the forum (because he has "a life"???) is inefficient and shows lack of initiative. So, I encouraged him to read his BG Tome. One can only gain a greater appreciation for the game by doing so - and clear up countless "muddy" areas of knowledge at the same time. The way I see it, it's win/win.
