Again it was only a suggestion on my part that if the instructions where a bit more detailed...a lot of the questions on how to do this and how to do that could be eliminated...I was not critiquing anyone...

The fact is that there is almost an unlimited level of granularity back that we could go. What level of skill should coders assume you have? Should they assume that you don't know some of the details of the AdminCP? Should they assume that you don't know how to get into the AdminCP? Should they assume that you don't even know what the AdminCP is?
So, you see, coders have to start somewhere.
A reasonable assumption is that if you are ready to modify your board, you should have a reasonable idea of how to use it in its stock form.
Otherwise, instruction files would be 20 times longer, if coders started with a basic tutorial on how to use vBulletin to begin with.
