Default How NOT to get help...

Here is a prime example of a person who is simply undeserving of help. This guy was unable to work the forum script so he puts it on all us, blah blah blah... Anyways, I would hope most people would ask for ahand before acting this way. I thought you all would get a laught out of it like I did. Start with the bottom email and work your way up.

My response:

We have over 12,000 members and over 8 new members per day… they all seem to be able to work the WIDELY USED forum script without any trouble. Interesting how you immediately start bashing us before even asking for some help with trying to clear up whatever the problem may be. If this is any indication of your attitude on a regular basis then we may be lucky that you neglected to ask for help or was unable to use a rudimentary script.

You people are Idiots! I was unable to Log into my Account TWICE! How Fuked up can you be?

I requested my Password you sent me a Login ID (which I did not request) Who in the hell designs your Website to be so NON- Functional?



I was going to all this trouble just trying to HELP someone solve a Problem on one of your Forum Posts. So being that I could not even LOG IN,

YOU post it! That is if you give a ****t even a FRACTION as much as I did.



Post is as Follows:



Hi, I saw that no one answered your Question, and I just got through with a Computer that had the same exact Error Codes.
What I did to fix the problem was I diagnosed the Source of the Problem to be the Drivers comming off of the XP CD Disk. Because it was giving me the Error Codes when installing Setup Drivers. So this was before it interacted with any other Hardware for Installation. To test this Theory I stuck the XP disk in two other Computers and tried to enter the Setup menu from the Boot from the CD with the XP Disk. The exact same error Messages occured in two other PCs using the same XP Disk. This lead me to determine that it was a Faulty XP Disk. But I didn't want to send the Disk Back to the Distributor, cause I still had the Sticker for it. So I just used a identical XP CD from another Computer and Typed in the Sticker Number from the Original (Faulty) CD. Everything worked Good.


So I recommend you try using another XP Disk from another Computer. Just make sure that it is exactly the same as the one you bought. not a different Version. Or you could send the Disk back from where you got it.

Good Luck!

I Really like how He capitalizes almost Every Other Word, plus His grammer is Totally incomprehensible. However, That being Said. The Previous sentence was an Example of What I was Talking About.

Wow.

I would just Ban him. Then the problem of resetting
his password would no longer be the problem. The
language used in the 1st two sentences is enough
for me.

The first three sentences did it for me.
