Gosh, look at all the n00bs!

Wow, there certainly has been an influx of n00bies lately, go look at the Freespace MODing forum....
Before the VBB's shutting down, there were maybe one or two "how to do _____" but now, wow, it's like the entire page is that's all it is!
Maybe someone should make a n00b-MODing-only forum :D

Maybe someone should answer the questions properly and then all the topics could drop off the board :)

I speak as someone who asked a couple of those questions and only did so after spending an hour reading through searches and finding nothing.

I still think we need a guide to modding. I`d write one myself but since I`m only just starting I'm in no position to do it.

:wtf:

You don't understand the concept of diplomacy, do you?

Besides which, we're not gonna create an artificial distinction between the 'n00bs' and the 'vets'.

Hi, I am n00b, but I plan to read the FRED2 walkthrough before I start making anything, so hopefully, I will not be as confused as other people. :)

Then again, the game hasn't even arrived yet, so who knows...

Oh you will be if you try making mods! :) Writing missions is fairly easy though. If you can do the walkthough you`re already halfway there. :)

Wow! You're a real n00by n00b!  Not one of us VBB n00bs!  n00btastic!

Ugh, head hurts from overuse of n00b...

...and welcome, too.  Enjoy FS2.

:lol: I remember I asked some new person-like questions when I first went to the VBB... I asked... what was it... how to make beams work? no, it was a "how to play mods and are they safe?" question... :p

I think a guide would be useful - maybe for me too. The tbls already have comments so I think a guide to using VP tools and getting them is needed...
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman
