YET another message to the newer guys
« on: 2010-05-28 23:41:52 »
^_^ heya newbies and old friends alike.

now, this is something that, me and some good buddies of mine on here have been seeing happening to much lately.


IF you have an issue that is valid and ask about it on here, please, for the love of all that is Final Fantasy 7, give us all the information you can, including app.log, computer specs and resolution settings.

if you do this, you will get much less flaming, and we can help you faster.

THANKS :D

Maybe you should add something like this.

"Be sure to SEARCH for your problem before you post it. If you don't think the problem has ever been posted on here, search again. Keep searching for about one hour. If you search for one hour straight and find nothing, then go to Google and search for it. If it leads to a porn site and you get a virus and you have to format your hard drive, then go ask Chuck Norris. If Chuck Norris cannot help you, then I highly doubt anyone here can."

Lol.

There's nobody Chuck Norris can't help, just people he won't help.

Jaitsu, I think i have a solution for your efforts to educate the intertubes.... Create a basic tutorial post, likely starting with post app log etc, along with some more indepth faq kinda stuff, such as the use of lgptools, kimera, biturn. This will likely not be found by newbiez, but all us ppl sick fo them can whip out the url and just paste it in their face til they do it right. It'll keep us from having to always answer use unlgp, use stuff.

I second this post!! We can just redirect them to the tutorials you make for simple programs like lgptools and like that. And if you decide to do this, remember to use proper english language. :)

I'm in the process of recording, editing, converting, and uploading a tutorial on how to use LGPTools demonstrating how to install the Advent Children Cloud mod.

Wow that's even nicer. Maybe next time you can take a video too on how to make .bat files for Aali's new lgp.exe since its much faster that lgptools. :)
