^ You said you were a complete noob.

I can teach you 1v1 if you'd like (preferred way for most people). Just drop your skype name and I can teach you if you want.

Lessons can get expensive and can be hard to do.

I learned from the Wiki, looking at scripts, and from just asking questions to friends I trust/know.

"wiki is complicated"

No it's not. OP, take a look at the wiki, give it some time. He doesn't know what he's talking about.

Good luck man.

I was mostly self-taught, through a combination of picking apart various models other people shared, and consulting the wiki when I was curious as to what something was. In my opinion, one of the biggest things to learn/understand with scripting is recursion (having your code calling itself) -- once you understand that, you'll be able to understand quite a bit of the coding conventions.

It's quite a task to learn how to script, even more so to do it well. Remember to stay patient if things aren't working immediately.

Exploiting and stealing peoples' scripts, then experimenting with them and making my own based off that knowledge. Once I was experienced enough, the wiki was a great help, but if you're just starting out, I'd suggest you stay away from the wiki. It'll just discourage you because it uses too many big incomprehensible words like "this function returns three values; the numeric index, table[index], and the function itself so that the construction iterates over all key parts of..." and so forth.
