This is sarcastic and condescending. For the following reasons...
*You know how to use Google though, righit?" My 60 year old stepfather knows how to use Google. The fact t hat I am on a programming forum also means that it is of a high percentage that I know what Google is and how to use it. So that statement was either sarcastic or you are completely ignorant of the internet and google's renown.
*Search for "android studio change minsdk" and choose one of the results that guide you through how to change it with pictures. *
There is a tendency for books to be simpler as you go down in agegroups. You reach a limit where books are primarily made up of pictures and few words. That tends to be in the early elementary age. By telling me to find one with pictures implies you are telling me to pick text that is of a simple nature, basically you are indirectly calling me stupid or inept.
I shouldn't have to explain this like I did.It is obvious you are being sarcastic and indirectly insulting me. DO me a favor and DON'T post on my threads. You don't provide anything fruitful and just pick fights I have the right not to be harassed. If you post another sarcrastic, negative post I will report you. Like I said I have the right to have a peaceful conversation.

You’re right - you should know of Google - which is why it’s why it’s so puzzling that it wouldn’t occur to you to use it to find information on the error message that you you described as “gibberish”, when it is in fact an easily readable sentence that tells you exactly what to do.
It doesn’t really get any clearer than “Increase the projects minSDK to 14 or higher” when it comes to error messages, honestly.
The fact you got upset about me saying “use one with pictures” tells me you still haven’t bothered searching Google, because if you had you would see the many results which are tutorials on how to do it - some accompanied with pictures of the IDE in each step due to how complex Android Studio IDE navigation can be when trying to find settings hidden away a few menus deep.
Given that you described the error message above as “gibberish”, I suggested you follow one with accompanying pictures of the Android Studio IDE to make sure that you can easily follow it step by step rather than using a vague text description of the process.
If you want to twist my words into some form of harassment then that’s on you, there was no name calling or abuse of any sort and it appears to me to be a “peaceful conversation” with instructions on how you can solve this issue easily yourself with a little effort on your part - but take it how you want.
The only harassment I see going on here is you consistently wasting people’s time by not even bothering to do the most basic of Google searches, instruction following or common sense using before deciding the world owes you an answer for whatever you can’t be bothered to research yourself on any given day.
Didn’t you pull the bullying card and dramatically announce you were leaving the forum a few months ago when you threw a hissy fit in another thread full of people trying to help you without actually doing all the work for you
Ah yes, here it is:

I’d suggest you re-read the post above and the post below the one of yours that I linked and take the advice on board - especially that from Nocturne - as it appears that 2mths later you are back with the same level of no effort, high expectancy and bad attitude.
Preferably re-read the whole thread and do some self reflection on why people responding to you don’t just give you the answers to your questions on a platter and why it makes you so angry that they expect you to put some effort in.
Feel free to report me whenever you like.
If I was PMing you out of the blue (like you have to me multiple times I might add) then I might agree with you, but when you post on a public forum I (and anyone else) have every right to reply to it and point out that you again have put zero effort into solving whatever the issue is before expecting people to take time out of their own days to give you an answer that you could have already found yourself if you bothered to even just do a basic Google search.
Rather than complaining, accusing everyone giving you the same advice of harassing you and getting angry that they aren’t giving you direct answers or exact code, maybe look into what it is they are actually trying to tell you.
Nobody on this forum has any problem helping people who get stuck after trying to help themselves and hitting a brick wall - me included believe it or not - but what you are repeatedly doing with your low effort posts shows a complete lack of respect for others people’s time and willingness to help others and I’m not the only one to point it out to you - are we all wrong?
