b1gb3n Forums Junkie I Supported Toymods Location: south Melbourne/KL Registered: June 2004	Re: Tech section Reality check Mon, 24 January 2005 15:42 alliance_22 wrote on Mon, 24 January 2005 12:47 thetoyman75 wrote on Mon, 24 January 2005 12:22 How quickly we all forget.... In regards to the Toymods Tech section. Just a quick reality slap to the face for everyone. Once upon a time I knew this kid who had no idea at about cars as his old man was more of the buy em new kind of guy. Questions like how to change a spark plug or do an oil change were necessary. I was lucky enough that my step father took the time out to explain things for me and so by 13 I had a decent idea what was going on. We ALL started somewhere ! Last I checked these forums were not just for the mechanical elite ! Sure the forums need a spring clean and some help and we are working on moderating them better. But there will always be fresh/new car enthusiasts who turn to these forums for help and I will be rather disapointed when they are not made feel welcome. If the first person you asked told you to piss off and do a search you'd probably be driving a newish Hyundai ! So rather than typing "Do a search" spending god knows how long bitching about the threads started by Newbies. How about you help them or Ignore them ! End rant I think thetoyman75 has a crucial point here. As im a new to modifying cars and that myself, sometimes i do feel its harsh when ppl say "Do a search". I mean they do have a point, but some ppl like myself find it hard to use the search function right. It could be just that im dumb... but ironically i work as a full time IT Support, and i still find the search function somewhat not as easy to use. as for Google and that, i've yet to find a topic on "3SGE Gen2 Conversion" on a ST162... so i find it hard to actually find out whats going on with my conversion. i'd never say "use the search function" to anyone, in fact i've never said it to anyone before... in my own opnion, i just think its better to get fresh info from ppl who answers the post rather than to get info on something that maybe out dated or irrelivent. I always think that nothing ever is the same... therefore any questions that comes up will have a good chance that it wont be the same as some previous ones.... we can benefit from learning all the varients of the problem... or just be ignorant about the only one solution. Anyways thats my 2 cents... ill still use the search function if nessecary though. ~CK well, like said b4, we need to get ppl to use the search button. what i do sometimes is the usual "do a search"(with a cool tone ), then ill go on to explain what i can to answer their Q. basically i answer what i can and get them to search for more detailed answers [Report message to a moderator]
