Re: Stop with the "RTFM" stuff

I was thinking about this thread as well, but my thoughts were along the lines of "people are much more willing to answer (sometimes repetitive) questions while giving polite reminders that many answers are found in the Manual."
One note I would make is to check threads before you make a new one. It seems there are about a dozen threads solely focused on <G36> (the infamous 6'-in-opponents-homestretch rule), with many more threads hijacked by this idea. In the first week of the game, there are much more pressing needs (such as designing a robot) than pointing out a flaw in the animation or griping about a rule that will surely be clarified by the GDC very shortly, as soon as the Q&A is up or an Update comes out.
Allow me to clarify by saying it is important to discuss game rules and strategies, but please do so in a controlled, professional way.

Thank you for resurrecting this thread - it's a good reminder for veterans and some nice reading for rookies.
