    Don't type in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS; it's considered the equivalent of shouting and very rude.

    To answer on the Mods behalf, this site has been inundated with thosands of requests and 95% of them are asking the same questions, not only are the mods getting pissed of the regulars are also, this thread was set up to help and advice people not as a babysitting service, if people only looked around all of the questions have been answered and the ones we cant answer for legal reasons we simply ignore, so look bear with us and hopefully a fix like previously will be posted and then everyone will be happy!!!

    There are sticky threads in bold at the top of the page.
    If the majority of people took the time to read just two of them then they would have no reason to post a new thread at all.

    Most people only see that their box is off and they go straight into 'post panic mode' and are blissfully unaware of nothing else that is already posted right before their eyes.

    Pity really ...

    Let's please not abuse CAPS LOCK buttons. Forum Rules are in my signature.

    The Moderators here are NOT rude, what i personally do is treat people to my dry humour, even when the place is overrun by people who can not/will not look up to one of the very first BOLD threads on the DVB forum page, they are there for this very reason - ie to stop people having to guess what's going on. Plus it's there to (hopefully) stop 1000s of people panic-posting and cluttering up the place. However for the last few days this place has almost been brought to it's knees by unprecedented amounts of needless posts, plus many chancers who are taking advantage of the situation. Plus we are being bombarded with life's lazy people who are posting email addresses/multiposting/breaking various other rules, and generally turning the place into crap for genuine posters. Quite frankly this particular moderator is sick and tired of the endless whining/rule breaking/scammers/code begging/etc etc, don't some of you realise that moderators actually browse the forums as normal posters too ?, and it's a very unpleasant place at the moment, not to mention that it's nigh on impossible to browse my own preferred forum posts while i'm chasing (literally) 1000s of needless posts.

    I'm afraid there's no excuse for people not to read the bold 'sticky' threads, and in this case -> http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/722659
