This is getting ridiculous. i realise its called the n00b forum for a reason, but its beyond a joke

people post asking for help, but they cant even tell us all the info.

asking who does engine swaps. but dont tell us about what car.

How to drive a manual?

do i use touch up paint to cover tiny little scratches?


Whats this light mean (low oil light) and can i drive my car with it lit up?

Can we do something for teh n00b section, that when they try to post it tells it directs them first to a sticky/list of threads of all teh commonly asked questions?

i want to be helpful, but its difficult when people want to be spoonfed, or dont provide all the logical information....

this is why the noob section exists. You are not being helpful at all with your snappy attitude to these "newcomers". Either help with a direct link to something or just shush up n calm the heck down. The quicker you realize this will NEVER change , the quicker we can all get on with life and stop fretting over this.

but they jsut wont listen!

if you dont do it now, then theyll post a new thread again asking another silly question. One particular member posted 3 threads in 3 days, and i have no doubt another will pop up soon...

The noob forum will be a endless cycle of repeated questions and queries for all eternity. That is the point of it :) Its not for angry people lol.

Simple answer is, if you don't like the post, don't read it, don't answer it, just plain ignore it.
