I don't see a point in a "beginners forum" for the same reasons others have said.
As for telling new people to read the stickies, yes I'm guilty of it but it's the people that cop an attitude and don't listen to anything, that gets me annoyed. If they where to say they went through and don't know which sticky it is, then I would me more incline to take the time to show them because it shows that they at least looked a little the there is no attitude.
I'll play nicer next time.
