I am sick of people making topics that been resolved in at least 10 other topics. For example, the server 4 problem, how many topics must be made before people understand that it is not a bug? And posts like this:

How hard is it to clearly state your problem, link the board, and use proper grammer/spelling?

Ya, But what are you going to do about it ? Nothing can really be done. If it gets to out of hand just leave it to the InvisionFree staff they can take care of everything on the forums ;) . I used to think that way to but it kind of grew on me and does not bug me at all now. I suggest you worry only about yourself and not others. Hopefully you will learn to be more relaxed in the futrue and not let it bug you as much. Good luck :).

Well if I was welcoming a new member to the IF boards I would suggest looking over,

1). InvisionFree Documentation/Manual.
2). Code Snippets.
3). Skinning Documentation.

I think that those topics will sum up all the baisc answer for new users on IF.

I hope that helps :) .

They really need to read documentation before posting problems that is my suggestion.

My suggestion:

At least briefly look at everything first.
The rules, the announcements, the FAQ, etc.
Pretty much everything but general chat and DuffMan's profile should at least be skimmed over before posting.
75% of the topics people make already exist within the first few pages of any forum.
It's not like you have to dig down to page 26.

Iam not really sure if I agree with you, I mean how would you feel if you join IF as your first forum, And you had bad spelling and grammer and other members told you this,

Dam what is this NOOB trying to say  :@ .


I don't think it feels to good, I would love to teach members of IF the basics of it. But then agian I was once like that, I once had bad spelling and grammer. It lead to me getting banned on a site. But now I improved it and I have see know problem to date. So when it comes down to "Do I agree with you ?" I would have to say "Depending on who." That's the best I can explain it :/ ..

I have a little theroy on this matter, Allow me to explain. We have one user who posts this message,

Quote:
 
Hi, iam new here were can i find the shop code ?????????


Then a differnt user replys like this,

Quote:
 
*Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh* Don't worry about it, It will be out when it's out now enough of these silly shop threads !!


Doing this only creates more of a problem, And as for those users who responed like this,

Quote:
 
Dude stop flaming people because they asked a question !!


That only creates more of a problem, So if you look at it like that you would see there is no common solution to this problem.

However there is, Simply avoid those threads all together. Let the InvisionFree staff handle it. That way there will be no flame wars on the boards about topics like that. Remember this is just my thoughts on this matter, I know most of you will not agree to this, Some may, But please do not get mad or angry with me for this is just my thoughts on this matter.

Anyways good luck to you all :).
