SEARCH FIRST!!!!! QUESTIONS LATER!!!!

FunFarmer · Post by **FunFarmer** » Sun Feb 05, 2017 12:28 am

Before you ask any questions or make any new posts...... use the little box in the upper left corner of your screen that says "Search..." you type in one or two words related to your question and then just like magic, every instance of those words in this forum will appear on your screen. And I bet you a free copy of the next DLC that every single game question you have about Farming Simulator will be answered by those search results. If you thought of it, there is a very good chance that several other people did too. So please, before you make a mockery of our forums by asking the same worn out questions a hundred times a day, have a chat with the search bot and see what you can learn. If you try that first and you still don't quite have the answer you are looking for, DO NOT MAKE A NEW THREAD, put your question onto the end of a related thread. Every new post will make the topic go red again for all of us to see and it will bring it up to the top of the page.

Once again, good advice! This should be permanently stuck at the top of every category!

That is what I am hoping for.

I haven't received a bill for any redundant posts I have inadvertently posted. Do they charge each member of the board for every new post?
If not...I'm not sure what the issue is "funfarmer". I think this game is great and most of the people on this message board are very friendly
And helpful. I'm relatively new to this game and this board so a big "thank you" to giants, mothers, and helpful members of this board.
That being said...the rest of you who complain about mods, Giants, mothers, redundant posts, etc,etc, etc; IT'S A GAME! It's fun, relaxing,
and stress relieving for me and I assume others.
My advice: if any facet of this game causes you anger or anxiety simply stop playing. Find a new hobby. The rest of us enjoy the game
And the board and don't feel it necessary to constantly complain about one aspect or another of this GAME.
Have fun...relax...enjoy

It's right in the forum rules not to open redundant topics and it gets really old when the same question is posted ten times a day

Edit:+1

Yeper, @canadafarms is correct. @FunFarmer has really good reason, so I don't see why you don't think it is a problem @BrettDavid. Us daily users get tired of it when people do those sort of things.

Again, +1 from me @FunFarmer.

Yeah, this is straight from the General Forum Rules:

Spam is strictly prohibited in the forum.
Spam includes, but is not limited to, useless threads, posts with the same content in different areas (cross-posting), meaningless topics and similar content.

Before posting a contribution, decide which sub-forum fits best. In case of doubt, a moderator may be questioned. Further, USE THE "SEARCH" FUNCTION of the forum to find similar threads before you create a new thread.

Oh yes... BoserLowe sent me a PM right after I posted these and directed me to read the forum rules... So I did... AGAIN. I really think the translation problems are a big issue on this board. The PM I got from BoserLowe sounded like I had broken rules. As I had mentioned on the other post like this, I am going to start trying to rally support to become a volunteer English speaking moderator for this board as I have already seen and heard that is a big problem here.

So many moderators and so little patience. If you don't like reading the same questions and have nothing to offer then just move along.

I think it would be better if everyone followed the forum rules set down by MadMax. They are pretty simple rules really. If people can't follow the rules of our community I think they should just move along...

You have good intentions but it's funny that you are trying to advocate rules by breaking them, one of the rules is no cross posting threads in different forums but you have done just that. Also I think you have very little chance of becoming a moderator when you are trying to create a clique, I've been a mod on a few sites and it isn't what admins want from a mod.

Finally in my experience as a mod, stickies are always just overlooked and the question will be asked regardless.
