    Though I generally try to avoid shorthand, it's probably lightly peppered throughout. I rewrote the specific instances you mentioned so that the abbreviations are now understandable from context, or with references to LV#, which is more likely to be understood by a typical gamer.

    The trouble with explaining every term from the ground up (e.g., what's a limit break?) is that I don't want to bog down myself or readers with rote explanations of basic mechanics. I assume a basic familiarity with game systems. My end goal is to provide top-level strategic insight, and leave the rote explanations to other resources like wikis or the in-game tutorial.

    then why include all the information about rerolling or the "new player" section, etc. It is not geared towards end game content.

    Because new players most of all need top-level guidance. By the time they're familiar enough with game systems to know what to do, they've likely already made poor strategic decisions that are difficult to undo. I'm not out to duplicate the JP wiki in English (contrary to some accusations). Instead, I'm focused on value-added content that you're unlikely to find elsewhere. I also cover topics based on personal interest or when I see a need in the community (the Beginner's guide mostly falls in this category).

    then it is quite ironic that you take certain "terms" for granted whilst saying that you want to offer guidance for beginners.
    or by not actually explaining things and offering reasonsoning.

    They're free to ask whenever something goes over their heads, and then fixes will be made when necessary.

    It is a FAQ, meaning questions asked by people that are not that familiar with terms, hence explanations are generally something that would make sense. and that is not even going into the author first stating one thing and then going for the opposite.

    and as for asking questions:
    I did ask questions previously.

    In came this person, linking his faq, the problem being that in either instance, his faq was giving the information neeed to answer the questions.
    and it gets kinda boring when you get a person trying to give his faq as answer to a question without knowing that his faq actually does not include the answer to said question.

    It actually did answer at least 2 of your questions. But that's a pointless debate. I pointed out that a resource was available. It's up to you whether you want to use it.

    If you have a request, be specific and I'll take it into consideration. Otherwise, I've already spent too much time arguing in circles with you.

    I've corrected the shorthand you pointed out. If you feel certain concepts need more elaboration, you have the following options:
    1. Point out specific instances, and I'll consider adding more detail.
    2. Write your own explanations / sections. If you do a good job, I'll consider linking to them or including them with a credit.
    3. Use a different resource, such as the JP wiki or asking other forum members.
