It's not just here, I also volunteer at another popular Q&A site but when people go to ask me a question, they seem to completely ignore the message that comes up:
"In order for me to help you promptly, please provide me with the following information: Brand of computer Model of computer Service or support tag Version of XP Current service Pack If the problem is with a device, in addition to the above, please answer the following: Type of device Make of device Model# of device Serial# of device Please describe your problem in complete detail, in this case, there is no such thing as 'too much information'. Thank you, your co-operation is appreciated, Jeffrey" Anyway, my auto request is ignored more than it is followed.  Hmm... I'm wondering if forums scripts like the one here and others could be modded or hacked to ask for the requested info then autopaste it in their message? Just a random idea, Jeff -------------------- The only real problem that I have with being an I.T. Tech is that I can't use the excuse:
"Sorry, I don't do windows." http://www.free-tech-support.info |
