BvT: the tone of your reply appears to be a little condescending.
one of the BIGGEST problems with this forum, et al, is the HUGE amount info available that is NOT relevent to the OP's query.
one could spend Hundreds of hours reading nothing posts trying to find anything that is applicable
and the SEARCH function is a poor option, if you are looking for something general. it won't let you search for a 3character search, and multiple words usually return Nothing for me.
Sometimes Google works but seldom.
So usuallly the best is to ASK questions on here.
Remember, Even YOU were a Noob at this at one time.
if everyone quit asking questions, and only used the search function, read each and every thread, and then started on the Archives, this place would become BORING real quick.
