NOOB/Newbies Beware

[d_unbeliever]

Where can i download movies, i've use the SEARCH FEATURE but can't find it...

I've already downloaded movies, but i don't know how to back them up...could anybody help me?

NEVER asked these type of questions here in this site and never ever mentioned the word DOWNLOAD...they're allergic to it .

And you will meet these guys in this forum . BEWARE

may god have mercy on your souls

[Tommyknocker]

Wow, did you just lay it on the chopping block. I hope Foo and Capmaster have the day off.

I think he's in line for an Indolikka special

WTF? Last time I checked noob's were fair game! 8)

I don't care one way or the other, I don't ever look at noob posts anyway. A person can only tollerate so many "what's better DVD+R or DVD-R?" questions before losing complete interest in noob posts....

I'm taking no chances and putting down a drop cloth. The last newbie they destroyed left a grease stain that took a month to remove.

Yeah, good idea. It's gonna look like the front row of a gallagher show here real quick...

[Faustus]

Gonna move this to feedback, cause I guess thats what it technically is.

Mr. Flaystus, may I take the drop cloth too? I really need it here.

Here is a SIMPLE RULE...IF YOU CAN'T HELP THE PERSON IN ANYWAY or HAVE THE RIGHT INFO ON HIS QUESTION OR YOU THINK THAT HIS QUESTIONS IS SO STUPID OR THEY ARE TOO LAZY TO SEARCH THE FORUM THEN DON'T ANSWER OR RESPONSE TO HIS POST AS SIMPLE AS THAT ...

newbies like me came to this site because we want answer to our question and not other people questioning our questions...

so for those who have NOTHING GOOD or INFORMATIVE to share...STFU and keep your LIMITED UNCONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS TO YOURSELF!!!

This site exist because of us NOOBs!!! and don't forget you were once a NOOB!!!

How's your wife?

You'd better lay down a big ******* dropcloth, my friend. And I'm not talking about a Sunday picnic dropcloth, I'm talking about enough fabric to cover Slovenia.

It's going to be a busy night.

Technically, it's also a cross post since the same exact text is in here:

I try to help the new guy as much as i can... Its just that certain topics (and im certain other "veterans" will agree), will just lead to endless follow-up questions...

Example:

"I want to convert this downloaded file to watch on my DVD player!"

"What sort of file is it?"

"I dunno, I just downloaded it, my mate said I can convert it"

"So it's an AVI file..."

"I dunno , it plays in windows media player ok"

and you know from here its time to click "stop watching this topic"

Yes, that's right, Scotch guard for carpets. No, a spray can is not enough. I need a 55-gallon drum full. No, I am not at liberty to say what for, the answer would turn your stomach anyway. And please, hurry!

WTF? A little too much caffine today? :P

True we were all newbies at one time. Difference is most of us weren't the "Urgent help needed" "What's the best way" noobies.

I mean give me a ******* break, there are literally 100's of guides to walk even the blind through the valley of death. The search button is pretty self explanitory as well. Hell if a newbie wants me to walk him through the process step by ******* step, then why not just FEDex it to me and I'll do it for you. And I might as well do it for you because walking you step by step does not teach you how to do it on your own. It teaches you how to duplicate a process from memory and when an issue arises, the newbie will be right back here wanting someone to hold your hand through the process again. Ever heard of rationalization and deduction skills? How about thought? I have to wonder how some of these newbies even learned how to set up a internet account to find this website in the first place. Do you suppose they typed "video help" into the google search box?? That's high likely hood...so they do know how to work the search box

I have went to great lengths before helping newbies and I have shown remarkable patience in explaining every minute step in the process...clear down to "now a box will pop up and ask you if you want to save the new IFO files...click "Save"". What pisses me straight off is when the Newb asks a question, you give him THE answer and he says "that's not it." or the newb asks for help, you explain it to him and he disagrees with you. Either of those 2 comments get the: "You need to keep it straight on who is asking who for help. I know what the **** I am doing." If you are a newb and you are asking questions you best be respectful of those trying to help you.

Doing a quick search of your posts, it seems that you have not posted any flamed topics in a while. So if your tirade is somehow a manifestation of your irritation over the "flaming newbies" T-shirt design that I did. I think it would be easier on you to read my signature and let go of your stress...because I don't care if you like it.


On a side note: I don't know if it works the same for streaming audio, but sound files that play through explorer are saved in your temporary internet files. Since streaming audio is not technically a file (such as mp3 or wav, etc) I believe it is still saved in your temporary internet files or your temp folder. It will have some kind of cracked out name like _23f0000.wav or something. I'm sure there is a program out that allows you to capture it straight away though.

Hmm. the regular visitors and Moderators don't get paid for answering EVERY question that appears on this forum, they do so because they they choose to spend some of their free time helping the inexperienced solve any problems they might be having. Its true that some replies may seem abusive, but this is a PUBLIC FORUM. What I think you need you do is find which particular BUG CRAWLED UP YOUR BUTT and deal with it!!

Great, it's here! Just set the drum there. Now I'll just pop the cap, grab a sponge applicator and...Northcat! You couldn't wait just one more day? Oh man, D_unbeliever seemed to be such a nice guy, guess we'll never know now, huh? I'm going to the shed to get a shovel and wheelbarrow. Stop laughing, Northcat_8, this ain't funny....

[indolikaa]

Don't let that drum out of your sight, Tommyknocker. We got another smart-ass newbie who just ordered 'The Special' this evening.


Too bad the chickenshit didn't have the gumption to hang around. Mommy must have spanked him for staying up past his bedtime...

[Tommyknocker]

Gotcha. I forgot today is the two-for-one special.

[tekkieman]

Still waiting.....

[northcat_8]

people who have nothing POSITIVE or CONSTRUCTIVE TO SHARE...

those qualities are subjective at best. Just because the comment may not hold any positive or constructive value to you, does not mean that it is not positive or constructive to all.

Hmm. the regular visitors and Moderators don't get paid for answering EVERY question that appears on this forum, they do so because they they choose to spend some of their free time helping the inexperienced solve any problems they might be having. Its true that some replies may seem abusive, but this is a PUBLIC FORUM.

Well said mh2360. I liken some of the questions to someone standing with their back to McDonalds asking me where McDonalds is. While some people would simply say "it's right behind you"...where as other people will just walk away from you...and other people will point and say "it's right there dumbass." 99% of the problem with newbies here is that they cannot seem to hear what is being said, they only hear HOW it was said.

[Grimey]

I'm very willing to help someone who is new if they phrase their question well and they have a basic understanding of whatever concept they're trying to tackle. but like mh2360 said, if they ask stupid questions and don't provide any helpful information then they're going to get a stupid answer with no helpful information. Like one of the mods, or maybe Baldrick (I forget who) said, this board is a free exchange of ideas. if you get a response that helps, be greatful, if you ask a stupid question and get flamed, big freakin' deal, you didn't pay for it.

[pchan]

What a quarrelsome bunch !

[northcat_8]

Great, it's here! Just set the drum there. Now I'll just pop the cap, grab a sponge applicator and...Northcat! You couldn't wait just one more day?

I didn't consider that a flame. It was a statement in fact. I am not upset or irritated with d_unbeliever...but if his emotional outburst was somehow brought on by my t-shirt design, then like I care.

Oh man, D_unbeliever seemed to be such a nice guy, guess we'll never know now, huh? I'm going to the shed to get a shovel and wheelbarrow. Stop laughing, Northcat_8, this ain't funny....

Nice guy???? Phhhhhhhttttttt. Same guy who tried to pass that Japanese actress of as his wife

And sorry...I am laughing...I've stopped now....Phhttt, hahahaha ............... sorry, I can't help it

[d_unbeliever]

im sorry sir tekkieman your original post got so drowned by unrelated replies, so i started this new posts to express my ideas on the topic that you originally posted...

[indolikaa]

You want proper treatment of noobs? Here you go...



Dr. Khan has spoken.

[d_unbeliever]

got nothing emotional about this post i presented that way so i can get violent reactions like some of the guys did...that's one of my purpose and i got it...

Nice guy???? Phhhhhhhttttttt. Same guy who tried to pass that Japanese actress of as his wife

And sorry...I am laughing...I've stopped now....Phhttt, hahahaha ............... sorry, I can't help it

i laughed too everytime i remember how i pulled your legs once again got my purpose there ...

[dafoe]

First of all, who in the hell are you to come in here screaming at people telling anybody what to do?

Secondly, yours is one of the most arrogant, completely useless posts I've ever come across on this board. At least the newbie posts serve as amusment for me. I'll be damned if I don't still laugh every time I see a "Can I make my DVD impossible to copy?" post.

I haven't quite figured out if you are the world's best drunk typist or just a complete psycho. My vote is on the latter. Either way, I (and the majority of this forum's users) live in as free country. I'll post anything I want and there isn't one damn thing you can do about it. Nothing. If I am out of line the Moderators will let me know. Remember them? The people who ARE actually in charge of things around here.

This concept is obviously as foreign to you as common sense is to the RIAA, I'm going to spell ot out for you: R-E-S-P-E-C-T Respect is something that is earned not demanded. You can scream all you want. As you can see it's not going to do you any good.

Do us all a favor. Between now and the time when you finally snap and go postal, take your useless ass to a forum where everybody doesn't think you're a joke. If you can find one.

[tygrus2000]

Just thought I would weigh in on this. If you are truly a aspiring videophile or whatever, there are lots of patient people that will help you out, even though the guides and other resources are there plain as day.

However, if you are a hack noob that has just come here to exploit the members of the forum, that is something different.

I can cite two examples of noobs dissing this forum. The first is some noobs that want to come in here and learn how to be dvd copiers and be able to go down to blockbuster, rent 20 movies, copy them and give them out to their friends. I have seen long time members help these people out and then the noobs are gone or flame the forum cause they aren;t coming back.

The second instance was some absolute jack@ss who came on here, got help and then took the guides and other info right off here, changed a few words and was gone trying to start a business and make a buck off a lot of people's hard work. I guess the work here is open for all to enjoy and its probably hard to stop someone from stealing it, but I gotta say that is low.

So as you can see, noobs don't exactly have the best reputation on here.

And as far as all of us being a noob at one time or another, that is true, the difference is, I and some others spent 9 months lurking and learning and reading before we got on the forum. When you register and post a simple question minutes later, it certainly seems like you didn't try very hard. Learning and helping are one thing...being spoonfed is another.

so anonymously on the internet, you posted a pic of an obsure actress claiming her as your wife, to bunch of people who really didn't care who your wife was to begin with, as a joke?......um....yea....good one....you really got us good
