Please briefly describe the interaction that caused you to file this ticket:
Asking a question on the IRC Freenode #fedora channel.
I have visited this channel on several occasions and generally take confidence in the quality of what replies and solutions are given. I realize that each volunteer/? does so to assist others in their use of fedora software.
Thank you for being there to help and please keep up the good work.

The only constructive criticism I would say is.
Please -
Don't let every single answer be "Read the Man" while this does educate a user. It also can become a frustrating factor. For those that have learning issues, poor eyesight, or comprehension abilities regarding the manuals themselves(sometimes overly technical).
Don't look down on someone if they do not possess the same reading writing or comprehension skill that you have. Some may not be able to type as fast or may have a slower internet connection, these all hinder how and what we can do.
If you have explained to the extent that you know and questions arise that are or have been discussed maybe you may need an additional person to help you explain to the level that can be understood by the person.
Simply- If you talk over someones head then they probably won't understand. Speak to their level.
Any additional notes or logs:
Thanks to all the people who help in the IRC channels. I would be at a great loss without you
Thanks for your feedback!
