Page 1 of POSTING NEW THREADS ? PLEASE READ...

There are three mistakes regularly being made when people are posting to this Forum, both old hands and especially newcomers. When you join the DVD Reviewer Forums, you agree to be governed by the FORUM RULES which are linked from the top of the screen. Please ***READ*** these before you start posting:

http://www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk/forums/rules.asp

Then consider:


a) Is your hack on the site already ?

Before posting a hack request, use the flaming SEARCH function to see if the hack has come up on the Forum before. Also, check out the site hacks section at:

http://www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk/info/multiregion/

to see if your player is there.


b) Is your posting adequate ?

When you compose your posting, consider the content. Include information that will let anyone who might try to help you. Have you tried to hack the player already ? What have you done ? What is happening with the player ? What else have you tried ?

When it comes to the heading, make it something USEFUL - "Hack needed" or "Please help me" are both uninformative and useless. They tell Forum users NOTHING about your problem, and mean you are far less likely to get help. Something like "Hack needed for Logix 3000" is far more suitable.


c) NO MULTIPLE POSTINGS

It`s as simple as that. DO NOT post more than once. If you accidentally post more than once then edit the message so it`s obvious it needs removal by an admin.

*bump*

To keep this message somewhere prominent...

To Dan (or whoever maintains the forum scripts!), is there no way you can make threads like this "sticky", so they always remain at (or near) the top of the forums? I`ve seen this technique used on some forums, and think it would be a useful feature to have here.

I agree, Mike.
