I simply have so much going on in my life that I cannot spend much time writing guides. The most I have been able to commit for several months are my moderator duties.

foreword: guides are really difficult to make but that depents on how accurate it is and the way you make it understandable
[THE FOLLOWING POST MAY BE OFF-TOPIC]
Well... i understand time problems, however, the thing that confuses people the most time is:
- in your useful links thread, there are links to guides like "level hacking guide" etc. but if you click on them, you get to some threads with a 9disciple build 36XX something picture and you have to do things you probably cannot do with build 3715.(not saying you really cannot do something with 9dis)
- in those "good guides" are NO PICTURES what you have to do, that confuses people BADLY. (it's not too bad, but the text has to be really clear and simple if you don't need pictures)
- if you want a guide for "xxx" everyone says "use the search function" BUT YOU WON'T FIND ANYTHING WITH THE SEARCH because you simply don't know what you have to search and some say check out the post from userX and if you found this post it's again, not understandable.
- just think of a common noob hacker, you want to hack something, you search for some explanation. for example 9Disciple... you get a tutorial... BUT IT'S FOR VERSION 36XX AGAIN. (Not a big problem imo but you need to update your tutorial.... just for the big noobs, you know what i mean)
- there are some other, great working hacks, but you don't have a good guide... the only good tutorials i have seen are the ones from GoodOldJase (i am not saying my tutorials are great too, but at least people understand them better.... i hope)
- on the other side, there are hacks that you don't actually need, since they're in vietnamese anyway(except dupe and skill hack)
[EVEN MORE OFF-TOPIC!]
- is 9D VN really closing? if so, are the guides completely useless?
that's just my opinion
