Default Questions, Ports / current|stable

I was told to,

A. not worry about ports, it's a waste of time and slow.

B. not to go to -current/-stable and instead just install patches manually..


im kind of confused, i've used FBSD for almost 7 months (2 years ago) and gentoo for a little over a year (until this past november) and i always liked ports and thought it was a good addition.

can anyone give me some input, also.. i can't find specifically in the faq about updating from generic(release?) to -stable / -current.

any help?
