let us also remember this:
Our target audience, is other IT staff. I have had to RTFM for more than 10 years. scripting is not a 'secret', nor is it a magic bullet.
When you come here with a problem, it is in response to a problem... usually it is because DOS sucks and your logon folder has about 30 little DOS apps.
If you can't figure out the FM, there is no way you are going to be clever enought to do anything but the most basic of scripts, and what you really need is someone else to go your job so you can go back to removing jammed paper from printers.
The starters forum should be for somone who doesn't understand the syntax of a command, or difficulty in getting the RPC service running, or a problem in determining HOW to go about doing something... not for someone that doesn't know how to map a home folder
The Scripts forum should be for assisting people with logic errors in their code. not for people to request a script for their problem.
I'm not saying that I am unhelpful, I have been and wish to continue to be helpful to people, but I expect people when they have a problem to have gone through at least the basics of resolving it themselves.. and in many cases, you have to pry the problem out of them to get enough info to begin helping them.
This isn't an Us vs Them, it is a WE and I expect a more from MY community
