The only low level questions I dislike are the ones begging
for stuff. Here's a conversation that went on over /shout
while I was in GFay. A high level necro and enchanter were
kiting the Priest of Discord while their pets beat him up
(yes, they killed him):

Newbie: Why is the PoD running around?
Kiter: We're kiting him.
Newbie: What's kiting?
Kiter: We run out of attack range while hitting him with spells.
Newbie: Why u kill PoD?
Kiter: For the loot he carries.
Newbie: What does PoD drop?
Kiter: A really crappy staff.
Newbie: Can I have PoD staff?
[pause]
Newbie: Can I have PoD staff?
[pause]
Newbie: Can I have PoD staff?

This is usually the level of stupidity high level folks are
ranting about when they mutter "stupid lower levels." I
seriously doubt anyone capable of subscribing themselves to
this list would fall into that category.
