QUIT POSTING THE SAME STUFF
« on: November 08, 2005, 12:24:51 AM »
If you are going to post something... Please do a little research on the topic before you ask a question about the same stuff!  Just becuase the topic was not listed or replied to in the past 6 hours doesnt mean it does not exist.  

This is just absured on how much of the same stuff gets talked about here.

The problem is the site only supports a 30 day search.  There is a way to look further, but a newbie probably wouldnt know how to find that info.  This complaint should be directed towards the webmaster to allow searches further into the past to find the desired information.

But it does get old seeing all the same questions asked every few months.

Months?  Usually more like weeks.  Sometimes even days.

I especially love it when people in certain forums (*cough* Brunswick *cough*) know about the search feature, acknowledge not using it, and still want others to answer a redundant question.
