I have already explained that this appears more to be a request-a-script thread (against the forum rules) than a 'help thread'. Several other competent folks who read the first post seem to agree with me, too.

One has nothing to do with the other

The initial post in this thread was perceived as violating the rules quite similarly to the other posts you have closed and/or edited with the comment 'read the rules'. This thread would, should have been closed had not this other, valid discussion sprouted from it. Kaimetsu's post was as equally 'helpful' as your similar comments were.

closing threads isn't done to help someone

I appreciate your attempt to convince me that something I did not say was not true.
You're absolutely correct; this forum
is for helping people. It is also for showing off NPCs you have created. It is also for general scripting discussion.
As Kaimetsu has already explained, posting full scripts to answer people's questions about scripting will not help them learn. Providing them with guidance, explanations, and examples of commands will. Spoonfeeding people a full script just doesn't help them.

I would just like some people to be more helpful, or just not post. Back seat moderating isn't needed.

I do not consider such advice from Kaimetsu to be backseat moderating. After all, he has quite a bit of experience with these whole moderating, scripting, and moderating the scripting forum things. His counsel, known to be wise, is appreciated.
