What a lot of people on script forums etc do not understand.

On for instance wordpress forums or any other script forums.
When someone asks a question alot of people are looking for, and the same guy replies saying 'i solved it', and that's it. They always disappear without saying how they did it. Mostly topics from several months to a year old, with a weekly reply of what the fix is from desperate people trying to find an answer who got the same problem.

When i ask something and ive found the fix myself later i fucking say in a reply what the fix is and how ive done it. Why dont people learn to do that? It's the logical thing to do, damnit!

Im done with my rant.

Totally agree. I will often go back and post my solution. Usually admitting to doing something stupid, lol.

A lot of people come to me for Wordpress help and modifications, usually after their frustrating attempts to fix/implement whatever changes they need. I'm compensated for my time, of course, so a lack of answers to specific Wordpress problems can put money in my pocket.

I hope you have your problem sorted, and if not... ICQ is in the sig.

Edit: oops, my icq is not in my sig. 418194907

Because they are thinking about their problem, not anyone elses future problems. Honestly if you need help start your own thread

I've made a few threads where I'm basically talking to myself - question, additional info, then finally the solution. Hopefully it's helped someone else. :D

The reason this sucks is because when you google your error message or problem, the SERPS are dominated by these threads that have no solution in them, and the only way you can find this out is to read the whole fucking thread.

Very annoying.

I wasn't trying to make a smartass reply like #2, I was telling him, the best solution is to figure it out yourself, that way you will know how to fix the problem down the road instead of "oh, shit whats that site I found the fix on again!?"

So you fail.
