As it looks like I have to accept that we have at least three problem forums.
So be it.
It's suggested already why not combining them to one 'tech forum'.

Ha, imagine a few hundred mac users would post all problems they have all over the place, without anybody else interested in it or knowing about...
I bet a lot of you would think differently about the case, not because of the mac then, but purely for the case, am I right?

But I admit, I mostly felt annoyenced by the st•pidity of posting erroneously on that scale.
As if planetz is just kinda data bank :o

On another track, I pm'd someone lately asking him to post problems in the problem forum (I did that only a very few times, as it doesn't work anyway).

I got a (very kind) reply, but he ended by saying, he got one solution, so the post was succesful.

Meaning: obviously he did the right thing. And he is even right.
That's the implicite message given, and that's more than 'live and let live':
As I hope you guys know to know how to explain to some that it's all different for the devices forum or whatever forum you still wanne keep clean a bit...

Anyway, I made a miscalculation regarding the silent agreement on my aim.
So I apologize for having made this to much to a personal case.

Back to the Mobos now, that's much more interesting, and forgive me this one :-D
well, it's a pretty common behaviour (on the net) to post in those sections that seem to have the highest frequency of responses, not to use any search function at all,
to be entirely self-focussed - ...I don't have the time to read all this... ;)
anything has a flipside anyway

thumbs up mate, Tom :D

yes, my concern, as planetz was always different.

Hm, KVR-style is the usual term to symbolize this behaviour?
Must be by accident, but we share already a thread start with KVR :-D

thanks for thumbs :-)

well, bringing in the comparison with kvr, I'd have to agree, stuff here is much more well organized, and less "hey, solve my problem" one off posts. I do agree in upholding that sort of high standard.
