Shout Box Reset

I deleted the history there as it has turned into a place to bitch and complain... that was not it's intended purpose...

If you have problems with the site they should be reported here Report Problems that's why it is there and why it has always been there.

Now it might seem that being lazy and yelling in the Chat will get you attention faster but it won't.

First only people who watch chat are others like you that can't help you and if it gets scrolled off it's lost, see how that works.

The Forum has a notification system built in, and us ones who can help you subscribe to important sections thus if you post a new topic with your issue in the section linked above, guess what...

I will get an email that a new topic was added...

Now will I drop everything and run right over, probably not but I will know about it and get to it.

Chat on the other hand is ignored by me as if your too lazy to do things the right way then why should I help you???

Use a little common sense, find out how the site you use works first, so you can participate in the correct way and not just be another pointless noise maker...



Basically any serious posting should be done in the proper forum section where it can be addressed and kept for others to reference back to, search works in the forum, there is no search for chat...

Chat or the Shout Box is for light banter and to exchange pleasantries and so on, it is not for serious discussions, those along with requests etc go in the forum.

Well, that's no fun. I didn't have time to read them. - But excellent point. We tend to forget. I, for one, I'm lazy. Very lazy.

I got fed up of telling them to post in the forums for problems or requests. Now I don't even check it. I would be quite happy if it was withdrawn form the site.

I fully get that Pip
