Many hands on deck

I learn a lot here on these pages, and on the resource sites run by the regulars here.  So I try to give back something.  If I've spent an hour taking, I try to spend an hour looking for a place to give back.

Honestly, it's not hard...  look at the current "Answers" and almost every day you'll find a question about registrations and licenses.  Sometimes those question hang un-answered for days.  Just assuming most of us have our installs registered, there should be a huge pool of people able to answer those questions, or at least start a dialogue with the new member. 

Unanswered questions bother me.  Unanswered SIMPLE questions bother me even more.  I mean, if it's been 3 days, some poor schmuck is out there wondering if anyone even read his question, and he can't find his ACP login page. 

Most of us can afford the time it takes to answer at least ONE question per visit.  No matter how new we are, there is something we know that those behind us don't know yet.  If not, just a "welcome, someone will be along to help" can make someone feel like they're not so alone with their frustrations.

I don't think there is any unwritten rule that you must have the complete answer to give it a shot.  Even if your answer is modified or corrected by a subsequent reader, just attempting will make this place a much more active and supportive community. Which means more answers when WE need help. Especially since it's all volunteer, this place needs the work of many hands doing small jobs, because nobody, Unity staff included, can keep it up alone.

And last, if anyone reads one of my answers, and finds it half-baked, incorrect, or knows of a simpler way to explain something, jump in!  Don't be shy, I won't be offended to have someone smoothing out my edges.  I'm still learning too.
