Posting Questions and Problems

[rthibeau]

If you expect a productive answer to your questions and problems that will actually help you, please post where you are. This one item of information will get you so much further and quicker with less effort on our part to help you. Sometimes, the help you seek is literally next door to you, but no one would know if you don't say where you are.

Posting your location is easy. Just click on "User CP" at the top of the forum page, then click "edit profile", then go to the bottom of the page and add your location. Then save.

okay...I give up........what is a sticky and how does it get there? and thanks for it anyhow....

A sticky is the ones you pick out, then flick and they stick to the wall.

A sticky is a feature where you flag a post to remain at the top of the page. This usually implies importance or at least a quick way to find an answer to a frequently ask question.

It is difficult for me to justify a response to anyone who does not show their location. In my mind, either they are afraid of whatever (including scam artists or the possibility of an obvious answer to what may seem an insurmountable question) or (hopefully not) deviant persons themselves. In the case of the obvious answer, everyone has made those questions, irregardless of their current or future skill level, period. This craft has been around for over three thousand years, no one will ever, EVER, make a new mistake, or ask a question that has been put forth at least a million times before.
If I'm not mistaken, the number of members on the map has not increased since January. I am positive the number of members in the blog has increased far beyond that.
Show your location and be proud.

Richard, I would like to shake your hand on this one, but alas, I looked to see if you were close to where I live and well....your upper right hand area speaks for itself.
