"Writer Application: Not Approved"
"Glad you can read instructions, my dear boy. Unfortunately, we understand these issue quite well but teach based on what the learning community wants - and not what the lazy Scripters community wants."
Apparently whoever it is that reads these articles feels that the little script kiddies' opinions of what is considered useful information takes priority over ours. |

| I actually agree with that. LuaLearners should teach what the students want. |

| Yes, but it is obvious that those who excel in a particular area specifically would have a better understanding of what relevant information could be considered useful or potentially misleading than those who attempt to grasp this information. |

| For their sake, they'd better have good code. |

It burns!
But yeah, I have seen LuaLearners before and I remember they had pretty basic tutorials on there. |

| They should take what the skids want to know into consideration and decide which concepts would be most useful for the things the skids want to know. |

| I don't like LuaLearners. It's basically just throwing a ton of information at you without really explaining it that well. |

| LuaLearners throws a bunch of badly organized and not explained information at you. In many cases, you can realize just by reading one of the tutorials that the tutorial's writer himself doesn't understand the subject very well. |

| I'd like to point out an error in the website. In one of the articles, there is a *comma* used, when really, it should be a *colon.* Something needs to be done about this. |

I already found a cringe-worthy thing in the "Expert" tutorial.
"disrupting Lua's usual compiling system" > compiling system > compiling
Lua doesn't compile. |

| I was actually wondering when you would post the response I gave you. I was guessing you would have fumed about it on the wall - but, to no surprise, you came back to your home. |
