## COMMON QUESTIONS
#### 1 - How can I contribute? I am not a developer, I know nothing useful.
- You can help us by testing our [Pull Requests](Contribute#how-to-test-a-pull-request), and participating on the github issues' discussions. You can also provide support when you can in our discord, on the popular [stackoverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/azerothcore) and on other emulation forums (ac-web.org for example). You can also help us with documentation (this wiki, or the readme), we need help with that too!
- You can put bounties (money) on issues and suggestions by using bountysource. Read this: [Bountysource](Bountysource.md)
- If you're a developer, check out this page: Contribute
#### 2 - Why is AzerothCore using more RAM than TrinityCore?
See [Memory Usage](Memory-Usage.md)
#### 3 - I want this fixed or this feature or this module. How can I proceed?
You can open a bounty and if developers are interested by the job, they might do it. Read this: [Bountysource](Bountysource.md)
#### 4 - I have an issue, where can I get help?
Read this carefully: [How to ask help](How-to-ask-for-help.md)
#### 5 - Why is it better to ask on Stackoverflow for support questions?
- because your question (and its solutions) **stays there** and you or other users **can find it later**, even using **google**
- because your question can easily **get lost in the chat**, and asking in the chat can only get answers by the users who are **currently online**
- because it's **super easy** (you can log in Stackoverflow using your **Google** or **Facebook** account - **NO NEED TO CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT**)
- because by posting questions or answers you can earn **points** (a profile with many points Stackoverflow can help A LOT when you want to find a job as a developer)
- because you can add common **tags** to your questions (like `c++`, `sql`, `docker`, `lua`, etc...) and have the chance to **get helped by many more users** than you would find in the AC discord chat
- because gives extra **visibility** to our project
- because it helps to **avoid duplicate questions**
## COMMON ERRORS
#### 1 - Mysql has gone away
Change the max packet size in your mysql configuration (and report on our github which SQL file is to be incriminated). Check this https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=2006+-+MySQL+server+has+gone+away
