Description
In page/support.md, following the mold of the triage page, put together instructions on the basics of contributing support to other users of jQuery projects, e.g., the forums, IRC, stackoverflow, etc. Should include:
- Links to various resources
- explaining how support is a great way to learn more about projects without needing to run into the problems yourself, learn about intricacies and edge cases and put them in your toolbox
- Advice on giving support
- talking about being patient, how to coax more information out of people
- avoiding getting frustrated, it's better to say nothing than editorialise
- help people solve the problems they need help with, i.e., "Not Telling People The Solution Is To Use a Different CMS"
