Intelligence and Counter-Intel question (from a newb, of course)

[Fyron]

Why do people always have to mark their questions as newbie questions? Who cares if it was asked by a newbie or a veteran? It doesn't make a difference. The question gets answered in exactly the same way...

I dunno Old habits die hard. I think people are more inclined to explain more fully or to be nicer to newbies than to veterans.

Also most (but not all) are more inclined to be patient with some of our oddball questions.

I suppose it also helps to ward off acronyms

And It allows one to ask those "stupid" questions without getting embarrased, those questions that never get's asked at lectures even though everyone wonders....

And just to clarify, if you turn divide points off, any points not used by the current (first in queue) project when that project is completed, will spill over to the next project in line (to the right), so you can thereby execute many projects one turn and not spend anything on the item on the far right in the queue (end).
