A simple request regarding people who don't read the Rules.

[ashasaur]

Alright people, it is time for me to get on my soapbox here, and say a few words to the community. The Wizard forums are getting really overloaded with ROM updating, bootloader, bricked Wizard threads etc, and it has got to stop.

It seems that every time I turn around, another member has posted something along the lines of:

Title=HALPZ!!!11! [email protected] ARE BRICKZORED!!!

And then in the post=I bricked my Wizard cuz I don no if it iz a G3 or G4 am using Vista PLEASE HELPS ME!

Then 20 minutes later they will post again;

What no one wantz to helps me? PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Now, I know that this cannot be fixed, there will always be people that are not going to take the time to read for a few moments, but I ask you other forums members/mods/admins etc who frequent the Wizard boards, PLEASE DO NOT FEED THESE TROLLS! I have started to just provide links to the Wiki, or tell people to search for their answer instead of answering them. And before someone says it, I know that new users are the lifeblood and purpose of XDA-Developers, but this is just ridiculous.

Please take my words as constructive, not destructive people...anyone else feel the same way?

Interesant.....

Very interesant... but

I dont know when this community open his hard disks to the whole world and even if the principal threads are full of pages they started with similar problem that they have and post a new thread with this help lines... hahaha and in CAPS.

When my wizard was bricked (not bricked cause i just need to read a little more on wiki!) i think In that Goda Damn full threads no body's will answer me the fast I need to recover my phone... why? cause I saw that the answers was in 2 days even if I was conected a lot it dont even have a fast answer...

I know now that every stupid thing i did has a purpouse that is answer to the new Threads telling them that do a search... an extensive search and provide all the info that helps everybody to solve the problems.

Ashasaur I dont think erasing the new threads without feeding will imports but I think That mods can consider a number of posts to a reasonal answer... first of all redirect to the right posted and sticky but thats not all the clearly solved trouble cause we are very good... i think real good to send people to the hell!!! no no no to the hell not... mmm to the new threads... but why not personaly do the answer fully... saying go to this link... we will try to unbricks your device! but go to with him or her to that thread and talk about that to feed more the sticky info.

When that happnds and the newbie goes to there to talk to you call to a Mod ( in this case i think Mr Noonski is the one that most stay in wizard forum) to erase or block the thread....

We need to understand that this panic mode makes us, do, stupid things even if we already does it... Even if Im not a wizard User i saw the thread HEY YALL FILL YOUR SIGNATURE WITH YOUR INFO... higly ignored and thats just craps the good meaning of that thread.

The Purpouse of this Great and fully Community is to embrace new members with knowin answers to solve thir problems but making them read a lot and teach them a culture of read and be more organisated.

If I have write some words incorrectly... my appoligies, Im mexican and the english is not my natural language. Thanks for all the effort to the genious in this Forum I learn a lot and Im still learning cause even if I have hundreds of post... doesnt means i have the important to change somethings here. But the all of us effort makes, begans, and ends, when more newbies come with their new devices.

Honestly... + Que PPC

Keep the good work... this will gonna makes us think a little more, read a little more and ask a little more... I mean All Newbies, Members, Seniors, and Mods.
