Does noone do a search on a topic before posting??
« on: 11 February 2009, 20:51:09 »

Ok either im grumpy or fed up seeing the same posts over and over

eg. code readers off egay.. or paperclip test... yadda yadda

I know in the past I have searched for some topics and not had any luck, knowing fine well that they have been covered many times, But I still look first!

It seems either the search engine part of this particular forum software (not limited to this forum in particular) is pretty limited, OR people just cant be arsed looking something up..

enlighten me please...

Sometimes wish more folks would have a wee looksee in the guide/howtoo sections.  There is a wealth of very good, accurate, information held there that has taken no small effort from ALL OOFers in times passed for the benefit of the newcomers (and sometimes, not so newcomers)...   ;)

I appreciate that it does annoy but, would the forum have grown so big and imformative if everyone had just used the how to's and not started threads to ask the question....?

Also a lot of people do read them and then post anyway for further clarification....
