You'd be surprised at some people's motivations for sharing knowledge. I was one of those people in class who knew everything and people would come to me for shit.
I'd help them out not because I wanted to feel superior, but just so I had something nice to look at during critiques and stuff. Seeing how others solved a given problem was part of the fun, and would open up my own perspective, so if they were getting bogged down trying to figure out the program instead of actually making shit, I was all too happy to help.
It isn't wholly altruistic and I did see some benefit like I said, but I'm sure plenty of people in a collaborative environment want to help just to see the group get better and work on their level. Since having people at your level invites more opportunities for true creative collaboration and expression. The "machine" working in perfect sync and all that. It's a good way to make friends too.
