I NEED HELP!
I have a question.
BIG problem!
NOOB needs help!
Problems
URGENT!
HELP ME PLEASE.
or ANYTHING like the above!!!
BE SPECIFIC in choosing a title for your post. It can help us better help you.
If you use a title that is generalized and not specific, it MAY be removed altogether
3. Help us help you. When you post, post as much information as you can.
4. Posting a topic 3 or 4 or 5 times will not get you a quicker response...it will more than likely get No response.
5. Please try to only start New topics as necessary. If a similar topic exists, please post in it. It will move that topic to the top of the list and your post will be seen. It also is a good idea since there may be a few users subscribed to that posts notification.
6. Post your topic in the respective forum.
i.e. Requests go in the Requests forum, Off topic stuff goes in the Off topic forum.
Neglecting to do so will get your topic moved or even removed!
7.DO NOT contact the administrators and moderators by Email or Private Messaging with questions UNLESS they have told you to do so! Uninvited private messages and privately addressed questions will be IGNORED!
We try to help as much as we can. Time is not free and any help we give is purely voluntary. Back to top
