I figure that the majority of the people here are looking to get answers to questions, as I am sure that the users outnumber the developers by a large margin (10 to 1 or so at least). So yeah, the majority will ignore you... the rest will too, if it appears you haven't done any work on your own to find the answer, and even then they may help you out with a link to the FAQ that answers your question.

Other than that, I've found that most people are as helpful as they can be.

To my knowledge there isn't a world building tutorial per say, but there are several how-to's that apply to world building, I'd recommend you check the tutorial/how to forum.
