[QUOTE="level20peon, post: 192577, member: 28613"] I have several unanswered topics, too. It is in fact very frustrating. But I don't blame the people who are active in these forums because they give clues when they have any AND when they FIND your topic at all. a) This is the problem here, there are new users everyday asking questions which have been asked 20 times before. b) There also are many users who have several posts and still are not looking for an answer by searching just by just posting without considering. c) Another problem is that due to a lack of searching and a lack of skill many users ask simply needless questions which could be avoided if they just would rtfm (:eek:). Every 5th "problem" is codec related, every 10th user is not able to handle the installation of MediaPortal and happily posts this instead of just reading the wiki. They generate a lot of unnecessary spam which expands the forum beyond a chance for the few supporters to handle the really important topics. This is a problem which continues to grow exponentially... -level20peon [/QUOTE]
