Look i don't mind if some one tells me theres another post like mine, hence "use the search bar" its short, simple and keeps you up to date. What i don't like is ten people telling me the same thing i saw it the first time i don't need you other 9 to tell me on my mistakes.

"OMFG NO ONE USES THE SEARCH BAR!!!!"

Now the times that you make a thread you really don't always check to see if some one else did it, so if some one told you once "use the search bar" you have no fucking right to repeat him, other words STFU.

Simpsons Did it, Simpsons Did it!

Since we are done with that, lets talk about a quick issue. WTF is up with changing a thread if a member of NG made a thread on a old topic they change it example

"Old news, this topic is about the chocolate guy from Spongebob"

Its off topic, looks n00bish, not needed.

So thanks for hearing me out NG

lol, that is so true

Almost every time you make a question thread there's at least one person to say "Use the search bar, I'm sure someone already answered this question"

You're not getting the reason why people do this. It's because they don't take the time to read the thread before they post. They're just too ambitious to get the first word in, even though a part of them is telling them "SOMEONE ALREADY SAID THAT, YOU FUCKING IDIOT".

Sometimes, it's an honest mistake. Like say, someone might have already gotten the point I'm trying to get across one minute before I post this, because it takes time to think, and type.

Really???

This is coming from a guy who wants a picture to be edited on NG so he could put it on his myspace... i would so fuck you up if you were in front of me!

The first thing is Pop you in the mouth for talking shit, knee you in the face for looking like that in the first place (Oh a rhyme), and backhand your mother for not teaching you respect.

Y'know, the rules say that you can get banned for saying "Use Google" or "Use the search bar" without linking to the results.

But what's annoying is if you made a topic that someone made eight years ago and no one has posted anything and that's the only topic like it ever made. Over 9,000 people start complaining "this thread has been done before. This thread is a super epic fail which must be deleted and your profile along with it." That's annoying.

I think it's against the rules to bump topics that haven't been posted in for around 2 or 3 years.

"OMFG USE THE SEACH BAR!1!!!!11"

Dumbshit excuse for a post count +1 post. Just like with that "OMFG lack of punuation hurts my brain" crap which is also a post count +1 excuse. Now there are good reasons for "this topic has been done before (with a link to the search)" and "You need to go back to English class". But if it a small thing then for the love of god don't make a big ass deal about it.

And why is there trolls in this topic shtting it up?

I agree. Once is enough to realize a mistake.

BTW if you typed search bar in the search bar, what would you get?

That stuff annoys me too, and I've tried many times in areas I mod to stop people from doing it, I even ban for it on occasion. It's a complete "post count +1" move, or a "look at me, I understand the rules and junk, mod me up!" thing. Either way, it's sad, it's unneeded and it's just gonna make you look like a dick.

The worst part is when you actually did search for similar threads but nothing came up, only to find that the thread has been done before, only it was worded differently. Either the search feature has to be improved, or people need to stop being dicks and realize that nearly every topic in the BBS has been done before at least once and actually contribute to the thread.

"use the search bar" shouldn't be a valid response because the search feature SUCKS ASS

of course, you can use Google, but they should say "use Google" instead of referring to the search bar
