Notice that I did, in fact, politely respond with my feelings on the CAI after my initial sentence about this being a topic that there are numerous threads on. The problem that many have, myself included, with people not searching topics that have been discussed ad nauseum is that there is now one more thread, to add to the many that exist, that people who will search the topic will have to wade through before they find their answer.

In the future, however, if you do post something that you've previously searched and haven't been able to find your answer, if you preface your post with: "I've searched this and can't find the answer..." or "I realize there are many threads on this, but I'm looking for..." it lets people know that you have, in fact, searched the topic but were unable to find the answer you were looking for and will keep people from assuming that you just blindly posted w/o searching. Peace, bro. :) |
