So, i8degrees, you are saying that when you see a simple question, you are forced to take the time to answer it? Look at the topic titles, if the question looks like it would be a waste of your time, then ignore it. No one is making you reply to every post. Posting a simple question, no matter how easily the answer could''ve been found by searching, is not a waste of anyone''s time.
No, what I am saying is if we didn''t have so many simple questions in these forums that people take the time to answer to, more of the repliers could be concentrating on the more complex questions.

And asking questions to experienced people here could not be considered a form of research?
The only type of questions that I am talking about are the ones that are trivial. "Can you teach me C++?" - questions like those show that the poster made absolutely no attempt at finding the answer himself, because the resources on this site alone is enough to get him started, he simply didn''t even attempt to look for any of it. Those are the questions I''m talking about.
