why people(cubers) do not tell you what they know

If someone knows it, they probably learned it fromm somewhere else. In that case (which is almost always the case) you can find that "somewhere else" yourself.

There is a search engine that can help the new guys out learning stuff, cubing related or not.....it's called GOOGLE.

You're retarded. Cubing is the only competitive "sport" in which everyone shares everything.

This. There are tons of easily accessible tutorials everywhere and almost every cuber I've met is happy to answer your questions and share tips if you just ask. (Caveat: you do have to ask the right questions. We all get tired of people asking "how do you get sub-20?" over and over and over and over...) Nobody has secrets in cubing. The last time someone refused to share his method, it turned out he was cheating.

Also, you're posting a thread on Speedsolving. Do it right. I'm not going to watch a 4 minute Youtube video to get something I can read in a few seconds.

Even though almost all the elite cubers make videos to help noobs... they really don't have to. it's NOT their job to help us and to make us faster. Yes it's nice to get tips from them and all. But they have EVERY right to not want to tell people how they are so fast. it's most likely just practice and dedication. they have been cubing for years not days weeks or even months. so yeah. just let them do what they want.

I have to agree with this. A lot of cubers (including the very fast ones), spend a lot of time and effort creating tutorials and resources for the community. You only have to spend a little time browsing these forums and our Wiki and you will realise this..

I mainly made this cause not many people share megaminx things! Or I couldn't find them after hours of searching. And i'm not saying every fast cuber doesn't make tutroials I'm saying so don't. And pluse I used examples that I get asked a pot at school. I am pretty young.

I hope no-one else bothers replying to you again, you obviously didn't listen.

Megaminx tutorial : http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Megaminx+Tutorial

So many youtube videos, so many websites, including Erik's.
And you asked a pot? Are you high?

Guys, it's not his fault. He's pretty young!

I want to echo what everyone else is saying. Cubing is remarkable in that most cubers share everything they know, to a degree that exceeds almost any other hobby or sport. We generally tend to get disrespectful towards those who don't, probably partially because of some cheating that has happened in the past. Anyway, please slap me if I ever start refusing to tell people what I know. I don't ever want to be like that.

I am pretty young.

Being 14 isn't an excuse for much.

This. I have found almost every piece of knowledge I have about cubing on the internet, where it must be provided by someone else. Any time I have PM'd someone on the forums, they have always answered with an interest in sharing information. Cubers, I am included in this, seem to have almost no inhibitions about teaching people how to cube. I hope this quality does not fade from the cubing world.

That's not an excuse for horribly placed words and general nubbiness.

Again I'm saying some

That explains most of your posts.

 

[Jaysammey777]

Okay I have learned a few things from this form.
1- I should use this site more often for IMs
2- Ipods are not good on wifi (or atleast mine isn't)
3- I should ask more than 1 person if a topic should be posted
4- The results were mainly negative from this topic
5- I should have more expirence before posting. Instead of generalizing
6- I need to get rid of my bad repution
