...and many time some problems are not as "simple" as those "non-newbies" think for the "newbie". I personally learned much from other members' answers, more than I asked for or I would expect. Things such as experience can not always be searched.

No matter how simple problem it is, a "newbie" may just stuck with the problem with a (too) long time, which can be reduced if answered specifically.

And sometimes a "newbie"(don't quite like this name) may not know that the problem was not brought out by what they think. (for example, 51 hangs up both when a dead loop in code and a lack of isolation to high voltage drivers) How would he/she knows just by reading previous posts?

I do agree that searching before asking is necessary, and I agree with Craig's comments on FAQ.
