Lets Help the World
« on: April 18, 2007, 11:26:42 AM »
Recently, I have noticed more and more often, people here are loosing their patience about questions.

We already know that 50% of the members will not post their specs.

Insulting isnt going to get anyone anywhere.

Please remember:
When it comes to new members, keep your patients.
Avoide posting things that go very off topic from the thread, especially when it goes unanswered.
Be kind. Or just plain.
Remember: The new member probably has a load of things already on their minds, specifically "How am I going to get this dang thing to work?"

Not everyone is very computer smart.
Some people only know how to turn the computer on and start MS Word.
Stay at their level. Be sure to define things clearly.

I decided to make this post since it seemed many people needed it to pop out at them.

The main rules are completely fine (as GX1 posted)
(This is just focusing on dealing with newbies)

I'm taking it as in you know exactly which incident I am talking about, Raptor? (Almost spelt it Raptop again... kind of funny, since R and P have a bit of distance on the keyboard)

No, not to be taken that way, Raptor.
It just seems like CH gets into a routine sometimes, and then things go... weird.

I dont recall the particular post. It was probably one of those "HELP ME!!!!" users.

As far as I am concerned, you are a very neat member on ComputerHope, and well knowledges of Computers. So quite frankly, I wouldent really care overall. (I just dont like to see members saying that ComputerHope.com sucks, and that people should not come here)

But speaking of it, there should be a cap lock mod somewhere preventing users from posting in all caps.

You can help the world by finding out who's been karmatically assaulting me.
