This is the most toxic sub I'm subscribed to

I have a legitimate question about frequently asked questions. With as many updates and changes as this game has, I wonder if it's acceptable to ask something that, while you could look up some answers, may not be relevant to the current content.

For instance, if someone wanted to ask what the best strategy to gear up prior to looking for specific items for your character build of choice is, is that going to be frowned upon? (So, what stats to look for on gear, what to do first at max level before paragon levels, etc.) I mean, I found this thread by looking for new or returning player resources (I haven't played in over a year-ish.). I've been searching google, youtube, fan websites, mmo-champion, reddit, etc with no clear cut answer. Just very specific legendaries and very specific build items with no general discussion as far as someone brand spanking new coming into this. It's incredibly overwhelming.

So would asking in a thread for something I just cannot find despite multiple wordings of searches across multiple resources be considered asking a frequently asked question? I tend to assume "what's the best ___" and "what's good for a new or returning player" type questions to be frequent across all games, not just D3, so yeah.

It's not nearly as frequently heavily modified as something like say, Hearthstone, for example, but it definitely changes enough that posts from a few months ago may be completely obsolete by now. And the reality is, the downvote system is created for comments that add nothing to the topic. Not what annoys you or what you disagree with or what you construe badly because you're having a shitty day. But I say you in general, obviously not you specifically. But yeah.
