Default Guides & FAQ sections...?

Hi, im fairly new to the nitro thing and this forum. So far i have found this forum priceless on various issues on how to run my buggy. However, i'm quite supprised that there are no Guides & FAQ sections anywhere (well not that i can find), except maybe the couple of sticky threads in this general section.

I see time and time again people getting annoyed with newbies asking questions on things that have been discussed to death, and im sure i've been guilty lol, and the constant 'use the search tool' rants. Well those people should try thinking back to when they knew nothing, because when i want to find out something but i dont know enough information to be specific enough with search terms, i can be searching for ages and still not find what i want, even though im certain there's plenty of info out there. The problem i have found when searching on this forum and that the results 99% of the time bring threads up which were posted by experienced users and discussed by experienced users, therefore the information within the thread is somewhat un-helpfull to those who dont know what they are talking about. For example today i wanted to find out about diff oils and set up.... i found tons of info about what set-ups the experienced users have, what they should try next etc. But all i wanted to know was BASIC theretical information, why we put oil in, the theretical effects of varying set up, how often to change oil and what all the traction/diff terminology meant.

Anyway, this is why i thought i'd discuss about the inclusion of Guide and FAQ sections, where helpful experienced users can post helpful guides for all the noobs out there who keep asking the same questions.
