-- Posted by Macropiper at 11:36 am on Feb. 12, 2006 It seems some people have been coming into the programming forum and posting useless cruft like "I don't know" or "you do that", such posts are totally useless, and I am somewhat suspicious that people are making them to increase their post count At any rate, useless replies like that are extraordinarily annoying, and people should stop posting useless replies to topics in here. -- Posted by nolenz baby at 11:53 am on Feb. 12, 2006 I agree. I honestly think that there's too many users that just say I don't know to get their post counts increased. Why don't they save the space for members who are actually here to and willing to help. -- Posted by jonners99 at 2:27 pm on April 11, 2006 Moderators generally are wise to this and will delete all topics which do not contribute to the topics. You can help them by clicking report post to bring it to their attention! -- Posted by Hexer at 6:52 pm on April 19, 2006 These type of posts could be worse. The thing I hate the most is people bumping up their points in welcome forums (not on LW) but on other forums. posts like yer, welcome and i agree are usless. Thats why we have polls. -- Posted by PraveenScience at 9:29 am on July 20, 2006 Any way as said above the moderators are careful enough that they will delete the posts. What would happen if you click the report post link from a post? -- Posted by libertine at 9:46 am on Aug. 3, 2006 Quote: from PraveenScience at 5:29 pm on July 20, 2006 Any way as said above the moderators are careful enough that they will delete the posts. What would happen if you click the report post link from a post? You are given a window with a box where you're supposed to type in why the post was reported and show examples. Then the report get's sent to the mods who decide the appropriate action. -- Posted by jamesthekid at 3:10 pm on Nov. 13, 2006 i agree but... sometimes people ask questions and its kinda mean if no one replies -- Posted by Asmodeus at 1:52 pm on Sep. 2, 2007 Obviously your sticky didn't help. I posted a topic, I got one reply from Legend Killer, which I reported, because all he said was "no". I got no other replies. -- Posted by ja114023 at 8:33 am on Mar. 6, 2008 wow this was from yrs ago... anyways i'm guilty of doing such simple replies but i can say that will try to write more meaning full responses. -- Posted by paganinio at 11:34 pm on Sep. 5, 2008 Quote: from Tangaroa at 2:36 pm on Feb. 12, 2006 It seems some people have been coming into the programming forum and posting useless cruft like "I don't know" or "you do that", such posts are totally useless, and I am somewhat suspicious that people are making them to increase their post count At any rate, useless replies like that are extraordinarily annoying, and people should stop posting useless replies to topics in here. I don't know. You do that.
