How I hate when I see threads like 'Help', 'Can you answer this ?', 'Urgent', 'I don't know why it is not working, 'I need help', 'Question', 'I am stumpped', 'Its not working' etc etc etc etc. :mad:
It would be much more better if people would place specific thread titles. After all, we visit this forum to get help, to ask question, when we are stumped, when it is urgent, when we are looking for somebody to aswer our question :rolleyes: :
I agree. Titles like these tend to turn people away:
I'm a noob
hmmmmm
Problem
Noobie Help
Grrrrrr
What's going on!!!
Help Please!
Help with code
If you give a general idea on the problem in your title and try to be as specific yet brief as possible, then more people who are able to solve your problem will be happy to help you out. Here are some good examples:
Command button is not working right
How do I rotate an image?
Copying one text file into another
Problem with collision detection
My program is crashing
Direct Memory Addressing
How do I Fillmemory in Words and Quads?
Well I won't hide from it. I'm the one who posted the thread titled "help" lol sorry I won't do that anymore. :blush:
yup that is nice for all :thumb:
Imagine how funny and messed up this place would be if all thread titles were like this :bigyello:
I'm a noob
hmmmmm
Problem
Noobie Help
Grrrrrr
What's going on!!!
Help Please!
Help with code
and what if
vbforums would be named "findWives" .... :wave:

I think the human race needs to trim the herd somewhat.
Am I the only one suspecting that certain people in this thread may be talking to themselves? :sick:
Its the only way I can find intelligent, stimulating conversation.Quote:

I personally love peeps who ask same questions almost exactly w/o searching. I search prior to all posts. I always seems to have something slightly different, but 80% of my q's are all solved by previous posts.
i've read a post question just like: arrgggg...tsuk..tak..
and i understand what he wants.
Well,
at least they've stopped posting those "One for the Gurus" or "Gurus Only" threads that were most popular a few years back.
:wave:

You need to post more often. 2 years, and only 50 non chit chat posts to show for it. :lol: :bigyello:
You're Something Else
when I first joined, my thread title was "bleh" :)
http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...highlight=bleh
I thought vb6 and VBA were the same thing :blush:
And I thought DirectX and OpenGL were the same thing......Nahhhh, I wasn't that dumb :bigyello:

Why wait. You can start now:

I made these, but they are far from complete. I'm currently developing an actual 3D engine I can work with so my code isn't so cluttered. That and a Dance Dance Revolution clone. Also try this for a tutorial:
http://externalweb.exhedra.com/Direc...T_DX8Start.asp
lol...i forgot..you're the one trying to force everyone into D-X eh? :p
If you tried it sometime, you'll know why :)
Try out my R-Type3D game as an example. It's gonna blow your mind that VB is even capable of that.
well I WOULD try it out..but I don't have VB6..if u have an exe it would help ;)
And you didnt link me..and quite frankly..im lazy :)
EXE is included ;)
Here's the link
www.angelfire.com/fl5/memorydll/index.html
Your computer won't be the same after trying his game. That's how great DirectX is. :)
Try moving the mouse around for freelooking camera, the numpad keys to move the camera around like a FPS, the arrow keys to move the ship around, spacebar for firing, and Esc to quit the program.
I dont have a number pad...laptop *cough*..i did test it though..pretty cool

lol.
Even at the yahoo lpsolve user group, it happens!
Just saw a new topic, { http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lp_solve/message/4484 } titled:

[lp_solve] can someone give me a c++ code of lp solver i need it urgently
The poster didn't even bother entering anything in the body!
You know whos around 12 years old when you see people posting questions like that. It would be even funnier if they were any older.
I couldn't agree more. ;)Quote:
