Oh so we shouldn't tell people to, for example,
/help $rand
?
No, that's
exactly what you should do.
Though, Search Mongers on this forum are simply telling users the equivilent of "Read the help file!!!1" or "RTFM!!!1". They don't even bother to instruct the user to "/help $rand" or even link to "/help" at all.
That's the BARE MINIMUM that is expected. At least LINK to useful search results, or relevant posts that you've found helpful in your travels. "RTFM" is a cop out.
And if you're feeling especially nice, you could tell the user to type:
//echo -a $rand(1,10) is a random number from 1 to 10.- Raccoon
