Well that just reinforces my point even further. As per the other posts here, contributions should be of a positive nature. Pointing a new user towards the search engine without also providing some sort of immediate response to their query is bloody useless and devoid of any reasoning. That's no different to running an IRC help channel and telling every user there to read the manual that comes with the IRCd to find out the server's commands and functions instead of replying to their question.
