ok, i would really like to stay on top of things an benefit from the knowledge and experience of the rest of you, but when i go onto a forum like this (or others) i am totally overwhelmed.

i don't know how to begin to find out if my problems (lagging, crashing, hanging) have been discussed already.

or if my wishes (easier way to find out where scripts were sent, how to tell if there are already active messages in someone elses inbox, easier way to combine multiple messages than cut and paste) have already been wished.

and i don't want to be one of those noobs that comes on and discusses stuff that is soooooo old news.

so, any advice?
thanks
