This is where it all went wrong. In the time you spent typing that up, you could have found the thread and copy and pasted the link, answered the question, or at least pointed him in the right direction. Either reply to a thread with a helpful solution or don't reply at all.

Albeit a little annoying when someone doesn't, we don't "require" people to search first before they post a question. The fact that you have an exclamation mark at of your post tells me that you are angry with artas all because he asked for a link to a thread. I do not understand why. In the time you spent typing that up, you could have found the thread and copy and pasted the link, answered the question, or at least pointed him in the right direction. Replying to a thread by saying "use the search" is just as bad or worse than not searching first. Either reply to a thread with a helpful solution or don't reply at all.

This is a phone forum and searching from one isn't always as easy as from a pc.
I agree, good point. That's why I'm posting this.

This is completely off topic...


This is the section of the Zero Tolerance Policy which I'm am referring to in this post:

We welcome EVERYONE to this forum. We don't care if their grammar isn't perfect. And, albeit a little annoying when someone doesn't, we don't "require" people to search first before they post a question.

This kind of behavior needs to stop!
I will be asking a Mod or Admin to review this thread.
