Hey how about answering there question and tell them to look at post 1 because it's a waste of time just saying look at post 1 and not really trying to explain how to fix it to them. I'll be more productive and it'll make everyone look less like a jerk saying "ohh we answer this question read the fourms, learn how to search and etc" what sounds better is " (insert answer) and you can find more answers on faqs on page 3) imo it save time for the poster and maybe future people reading the thread using the "search" button |
Thing is we were doing that and we do. We like to think it works. I say for every 10 downloads we get 1 repeat question. So most people get it or search. It is that 1 out of 10 people who won't do anything but download and ask questions. Those people we help and tell to search but there is always the one out of ten that will skip everything and ask questions.
It's like cooking a meal for the first time. You will read up on how to cook it and eat it. If something doesn't taste right you figure out what you did wrong by rereading and seeing if there is anything you missed. The info is there for you. The easy way out is asking mom why it tastes this way or what to do to fix it.
You figure out how to download it and install it. If something doesn't work you figure out what you did wrong by rereading and see if there is anything you missed. The info is all there. The easy way out is asking the members why it doesn't work.
Some people do get stumped. I'll admit that. Something this easy shouldn't stump you though. If it does maybe it is too advanced. Just like cooking something too advanced. But then how do you learn. You ask questions and that's what a forum is. With a forum though most of the time if you have a problem someone else probably did. So you search to find the answer.
Sorry for my long rant. Some people need to think other ways so hopefully this helps people see another point of view on this topic.
