There is nothing worse than having the answer handed to you for an assignment that is worth 10% of your grade and then get a 30% on your midterm or final because you really didn't understand.
In earlier years, when I was at school during the day I would always have people come and ask me things. If they were annoying or abused my help I would either be really vague and send them off on a wild goose chase, or describe in great detail the algorithm, code segment or whatever they needed. This meant they didn't need to figure it out at all, and would be there whining about the 30% on the midterm they go because they couldn't answer half the questions.
The really annoying ones were the guys who would sit there in the laptop area and scream at each other while I was trying to work. Their topics ranged from gundams to how thier druid tanks since the last patch to latest tentacle rape hentai they had torrented over the wireless. In retrospect, they probably didn't need my help to fail.
