"Yet another..." threads in tech.

[ECKSJAY]

Does this annoy anyone else?

:jester:

 

[swbooking]

Yes, very much so.

Its like, if you know this is "yet another" thread. Why dont you just search instead of be told to search?

People are just to damn lazy and want everything handed to them on a fcuking silver platter.

 

[ECKSJAY]

Oddly enough, a search for thread titles with 'yet another' didn't yield any results. :jester:

 

[cal]

That annoys me almost as much as "The OFFICIAL <topic> thread."

wtf? How can it be the official on anything at birth?

 

[swbooking]

Yes that too, people just do that so it makes it seem that its now OK for them to repost an already beat to dead thread topic.

Even when the person is told to go search, their questions are usually answered by someone else anyway......
maybe if the thread was closed and they were told to go search.....but that would just put more on the moderators though

just my .02

I dont personally mind threads that are beat to death I will answer regardless. I will still tell someone to go balance there tires if they get a wobble at 50+. And tell people to check there CPS when there vehicle won't start.

I just don't mind typing a few words then.

What I do get tired of is the ole I had the same thing happend with my jeep. then they go on explaining and it is totally different.

Do you teach English?......:read: ..............hehehehehehehe

 

[wolfpackjeeper]

what we need are more damn stickies. I dont want to see anything but stickies for the first page of every forum. Heck, lets just make every post that is new and not a sticky its own sticky.






JK, what if we just started giving very long roving and roundabout answers to everyone who asks questions without searching?

Naw, I'm not qualified to teach English in skool. They still teach it in our schools, don't they?

Here's a radical solution (tnc)

We have admin check the box, "delete inactive thread after" and say 180 days.

We won't have to worry about searches, cause there will be no history.
Newbies can then ask all the questions we asked once, but have now read and responsed to 1 zillion times without fear of someone asking them to "Search".

Now to augment this, we add Yet Another Forum, called "Tech Stickies" and make it all stickies from our so called experts, preferably from people with less than 300 posts, because they seem to know the most and have the best fab skills.

Yes but it's not called English anymore, it's called "The Second Language of Mexifornia." It goes into great depth on how to "press 1" if you do not understand the primary language of Mexifornia,..Spanish. It also covers a new course "Social Security-It's not for the citizens anymore."

hehehehehehehe

:roflmao: :roflmao:

Thank you for putting punctuation inside the quote marks and for correctly spelling the contraction "it is." Now, if we can get the other 96.57% of English-speaking Internet users to do the same. :laugh:

Dude!.... do you know how hard it it to get all those pesky punctuation marks, capital letters, and ALL those extra letters that nobody really needs in there when you type with your thumbs? Besides, what's wrong with replacing "c" with a "K" when what you really want to say is "KOOL!"

Did you really mean to call him a country stupid city slicker? If not, stop calling people "Dude".

Cool is spelled with a "C" not a "K", except of you re talking about "Kool Aid (tm)".

The rest is the quest for perfection. We type all those extra letters so that the person reading our babble knows right off what we meant to say instead of having to get out their Captain Midnight, or Ovaltine Little Orphan Annie decoders to figure out what you've typed.
