Answer 18

Hey peaceluvdance. I have seen Asnaseer a lot on this site. He is all about helping people. I think he was just trying to help you. We are unaware of how much people know and that is probably why he was asking what you knew. He was trying to see how much you knew in order to determine where to start on helping you. If you work with asnaseer enough, you will totally see he is an awesome helper.
By the way, I'm sorry you felt that you were being rude too. It is sometimes hard to tell if people mean well on the internet. And I can assure you that asanseer means well.
