Game Masters are there to avoid anger between players, and to enforce rules of excepted behaviour, with the target to make most players enjoy the game, especially the roleplaying part.
Answering questions of unexperienced players in some rather sniffy kind is not really appreciated, because it makes players angry, and might lead them to avoid playing (and is one of the reasons why even some \"icons\" tend to leave PlaneShift...); wouldn\'t it have been more suitable to suggest looking for the next \"weapon expert\" (and a GM shall know players who are there long enough to know answers of \"trivial\" questions)?
Furthermore, I remember that several details - like special weapon attributes - are prohibited to be discussed in public to avoid cheating.

Constin, be sure that you can find many helpful people; but
some of the GMs are \"too busy\" to be talkative, obviously...
