The replies that you will get largely depend on the questions you ask. For your link regarding switching a race, you get a very good answer from Footman and Retera. The unfortunate thing is that triggers cannot be copied directly from Hive, you will need to recreate them yourself or ask someone to attach a map with said triggers, from where you will need to copy the triggers. That being said, any trigger that requires Variables is more tricky, not to mention if the trigger has dependencies.

Note that you are not the only person asking for help on the Forums, and the more accurately you describe what you need and what you want, the more likely you are to get help. A lot of times people are asking simple things - which are often provided. Other times people are asking some randoms to do work for them, with zero assurance that the work will even go further - most likely you will not get help.

The standard principle is also that people are more willing to help those who show a willingness to learn things: if you ask someone else to create a very basic trigger, which you could learn to do yourself by reading a tutorial for 5 minutes, they are most likely going to suggest for you to learn it yourself. Why? Because it is a superior solution for both parties: to explain how to do it takes more than 5 minutes (which is why ready-made tutorials are useful, as they are readily available). On the other hand, if you just get the trigger handed to you on a silver platter, you will not learn to fix the issue yourself, and in the great majority of cases, people end up asking for more questions/triggers. Thus it is by far better to learn the basics yourself.

Another reason that makes learning the very basics yourself useful, is that you will be able to better describe what you need, and where you need the help. Lets take your race-switching script as an example. If you knew basics, you would know that the trigger type you are using is GUI (not Jass, vJass, ZINC, Wurst, LUA and so forth). You could also explain where you run into issues - how far do you get on your own, and where the issue is? Events, actions or detecting where to apply which race?

Things are not simple. The more you know yourself, the more you will get help.

You're calling out people for being "lazy", but aren't you the one being "lazy" when you don't want to put in the time to learn through the tutorials people have suggested you? And no one is being lazy - no one is obligated to help you out. They're doing it out of their own good will, devoting time to write up triggers and suggestions for you. You keep calling people out and complaining, but you are the one being incredibly disrespectful and thankless to the people who keep genuinely giving you advice and suggestions.

It's not about the stuff you mentioned.
The problem is solely on you. You are impatient, get angry quickly, don't follow up on the most basic concepts or things and show extreme disregard for the whole community.

I pity you and I hope your stay here will not put a huge waste and strain on the community.
 
youre having a laugh because i have a problem on being unpacient?. disgusting
I for one am having a laugh because of your lack of grasp on the English language, lack of proper grammar and continued insults against the community and my friends.
Don't make this laugh turn into anger.
