I have been a member of this forum for a few months now and i am starting to get very, very annoyed by the ignorance by somepeople out there!!. The same questions are being asked over and over again, it has been statede on several occasions that people should first do a search on the topic they are requesting info on. BUT no im now seeing this on a daily basis !!!!, other users have commented on this aswell so i think its not just me !!!!! Come on guys stop wasting peoples time and do searches before asking the same old questions............
not to be mean to anyone but i totally agree with grennmann. If people would use the search option or read the back post their questions would be answered
Hummmm. i seem to have heard this before.
Well like you say some people are just ignorant.
I wrote a nice lone tutorial for this a while ago..... time and effort wasted again....

Maybe Bot just has to bann some people that are ignorant. Or just make it more visable! when i first came here i didn't know about that.
A lot of people get banned instantly!
The requirement to do searches etc is displayed as part of the agreement to join the forum.
I was wondering what is the best way to do a seach for my question. Since I may not ask exactly the same question but is pretty much the same question that someone else asks. You know what I'm saying. Just need some assistance on this since I don't want to bother anybody more than I have to.

Spooky do you still have this tutorial?
I have been searching around but there is a lot of conflicting stuff.... i.e 1 person seems to have no probs at all backing up a game using cloneCD & someone else who (claims) to have a 100% compatible setup will have probs.
a guide is a great idea, however the dummies guide seems to be for those without clone.
1 think i would be very interested to see (which i havent as yet seen) is info on how to patch games so they will run at 60hz on a UK machine? i imagine this is possible as it is on the DC.

Hi people!
Interesting thread you started here ;)
I must admit I can feel somehow identified for what you argue here, but I do know many other boards in which the problem repeats over and over (probably on 90% of the online boards of the Internet).
People is just too lazy or too ignorant! Believe me, it's not THAT EASY to find answers to certain similar questions.
Sometimes, when you find old posts using the Search function, you decide to answer some of them, asking the same... why? Coz' it usually implies the person you're answering/asking to is different all the times...
I can see other posts where definetly you can go nuts (not to mention names but certain guy asking all over again why clonecd is not working for him and others do).
But in some other ocasions, it is necessary to repeat the question ;)
Just my .02 ;)
I know that totally pisses me off when people fill the boards with the same old bollocks time and time again...
******** READ THE PAST POSTS PLEASE *******
Apologies if i have posted stuff that i should have searched for !! But some of these stainers are rippin the piss.
Please search
