Guys I can't help but notice in the last 48 hours the forum has become full of idiot newbies.
It is making the site become a nightmare to read, some of the questions are utter plain stupid.
I know we all start some where but Chr*st guys posting about being on spoof 3.73 firmware and wondering why he has no install packages option, other guy posting about downgrading from 4.21 with a file transfer ...lol
More guys posting about downgrading with no hardware !

Finally I am getting newbies sending me pm's who have not even made 1 single post.

Can we not do anything ? Can we stop newbies sending pm's to members unless they have made a number of posts ?

Cheers

Keano

I get a lot of PM's too, it's getting mad!

I don't mind helping people at all, and where I can I reply with any help I can give, but some of the PM's now are ridiculous:

"Default patch me these games X Y Z cheers bye!"... sorry but who are you!?

I remember this. Someone sent me a messagelike this and I havent seen them since. Lol, still theres not much can be done about noobs, just remember that ignorance is bliss, so if they choose to not look for info and have it handed to them then oh well, just deal with them accordingly.

I think the search function should be explained as a prerequisite to signing up.

Perhaps a pm as soon as you sign up with a message like my latest welcome

THAT is a great idea.

[Persian McLovin]

Yeah great idea @Ubefuct and I agree with the others...there's noobish and then there's just plain stupid.

I got a PM asking me about a 3.60 CFW, some noob misinterpreted my post and thought that it was out already

[japsander]

just ignore them if it bothers you and if a member repeatedly spams your pm box, report it
