I suppose every rule has an exception, but I can relate with that. Someone with a few more posts than another use may have "Earned" the right to bypass the laymens responce and deserve a respectable answer, though there are users who have a post count consisty of nonesence and gibberish.
I personally use how well/poor a user describes thier problem and marks what steps they may or may not have already taken to answer their own problem. Such as a user with one post count comes to the board...

How do i make mirc say something when a user type !help?
[More advanced; Still 1 post count]
I have looked in the help file, and found the on text event. I tried looking through the examples and found no help. I don't see to get what the <insert something here that pertains the the topic>. I am trying to make the <goes into a breif explination of what they would like to achieve>. Can anyong point me in the right direction to look or perhaps know any tutorials i can learn from?
The bold being the keywords. This tells me the user doesn't want it fed to them on a silver platter, but is looking to learn from the experience, and has taken the time tosearch themselves.
Again, all in the way you look at things. Everying is relative.
