here are my truths about posting threads.
when you try to be short and simple (and I have) when posting a thread, one is slammed, bashed, belittled mocked. etc, for not providing more detail, and so when I repost a new thread I try to appease all (more detailed pesrsons Included) people (that's respectful after all) but then you get no responses from people, even from the ones that ask for more detail go silent,
i am aware this is not tech support, but it's the first stop before you go to tech support right? we all ask friends and family about something (car sounds, funny noises from the washer, etc,) before we go to a professional. that's how I view this group, Imagine if you picked up the phone, called your friend, that owns every sports car known to man.. ha,, an ask " hey my car sounds funny" and all you get from them is call me back with more info. Then you call back an discribe the sound in detail and still you get a longggggg silence. you would be a bit ticked im guessing and just hang up.
it's just hard to get it right when posting something, so the question is what amount of info makes a good thread To help avoid long silences, ticked-off comments, or leaving the group altogether.
