The purpose of this forum is to alert and solve technical problems. Therefore, it would be in everyone's best interest if you guys would please post efficiently in this forum.
Please do not post:
- comments about the glitch that are not helpful (i.e. "wow that's weird")
- posts that indicate that there's another similar topic, BUT do not indicate a link to said topic
- "yeah do what so-and-so just said"
- "I hope this glitch never gets fixed"
The above is spam.
Please do post:
- "I can verify that this glitch is real" or "something like that happened to me too" (BE SPECIFIC)
- solutions that you know will work
- amendments or corrections to a previous poster's solution
- clarification questions as needed
- a valid link to an appropriate topic if needed
- screenshots if applicable
All other posting rules and etiquette apply.
Read this before posting if you have any troubles or questions.
That being =said, I expect only useful and contributing replies to this topic. I already know it is useful/cool/needed.
(Thank you BugHunters) _________________

omg wow dis is werd. do wut mochi says. o wait, deres already a topic like dis lololol.
No, I'm kidding. I do want to add that if you see that someone has a problem and you know how to fix it, please post how. Don't be like "Haha, what a n00b. He can't even fix blahblah, so I'll just let him suffer," since you're wasting both his and other peoples' time.
Plus, that's just being mean. _________________

Why thank you.
I also forgot to mention that clarification questions are indeed useful and you should use them as needed.
Really. _________________

I've seen Mr say that you shouldn't put polls in technical forum topics.
Should this be added? _________________

I could add something about creating topics, although that's not the main issue here. Do you think it is necessary?

It'd be a bit ironic if suddenly the number of unhelpful-to-the-issue posts doubled. The best would be if you posted something useful and mentioned the bad post at the same time, but since that's not always possible, I suggest you PM them. If they do it more than once, just link on the topic. Don't sound snobby. _________________

Also add into spam: "No posting about server problems", probably one of the most frequent. _________________

What do you mean by that? I need an example of a bad post. Do you mean when people are just posting 'The server is down' or something? _________________

Wat I ment was dat's wat we should tel da Warbears members not to post about server problems, because I saw a locked forum because they talked about server problems. _________________ MMC-P, MMC-I

Will you freakin' talk in English
I'll add something about it, but this is general Technical Forum Behaviour, and server problems tend to be in that one thread or in a new topic. _________________

No, it's just,people normally post threads saying 'i cant connect to server', 'it says initizlaing', of course they have been locked now, so... _________________
