"One last go - FOR THOSE NEEDING HELP ON GAMES"

This is one final attempt to get rid of some of the junk that swallows up this forum, namely the *i need help on* topics. Now i've seen countless topics on this forum posted asking for help from lazy people who can't be bothered to either work it out for themselves in the game or go on an actual gaming help site to find the answer. I've read a few topics asking for help and been able to just pop over to gamefaqs and find the answer within 3 minutes. 3 minutes! it's not too long is it? Infact after the time it takes you to write your i need help topic and wait for a response that's probably alot longer than 3 minutes.

So if you do need help on a game go to either gamefaqs.com or look around on this site for help. I can pretty much guarantee you that you'll find the answer you are after on there (considering the mainstream releases most of the topics are about anyway)


Please lets try and make this forum better and actually worth visiting.

I agree. Why don't we report people who constantly make 'I need help on' topics?

People will just ignore this thread and do it anyway.
Why don't we try and ignore "the i need help threads" so they sink.
This thread will sink but good try lalakersrule

Well i'm just hoping as long as this stays near the top people will notice it and actually take the advice before posting their i need help topics.

I'm not holding my breath but it's worth one last try

Thank God, somebody else against *i need help* topics...

Thanks!

Yup, this thread should be made sticky. And the top post should be:

For game help, [URL]http://www.gamefaqs.com[/URL]

bumping to the top

Advice to all:

If you're stuck, don't bother with Gamewinners.com. It's more of a fake cheats and hoaxes collection than a cheats site.

Erm, no, that's not such a good idea. For one thing it's a public forum and people can ask what they want, within reason of course. And secondly, it would really annoy the staffies.

Why does a PS1 & PS2 games forum have Sport topics?
