I don't mind helping people but the people you are trying to help do what I refer to as "forum shopping" so I do not help anymore.
They have to show me they really want it.

What I mean by this is something like..
"I want to do XYZ"
Then I explain why XYZ is bad/good/indifferent and offer a solution and I get "but Joe snarky over there said it was OK" and they do it anyway.

That is trying to get the answer you want to hear.
Then it doesn't work or it DOES work for a short time and blows up or has some other side effect and now I am expected to resolve that. Absolutely not.
And too many people have done it to me to give a s--t these days.

Like [USER=52309]@Handy Andy[/USER] I am getting too old for this.

[USER=45434]@TheRealPorkchop[/USER] what are you looking for specifically in a video that isn't being shown? We may be able to answer that.

[QUOTE="Martian, post: 635412, member: 52736"] I don't mind helping people but the people you are trying to help do what I refer to as "forum shopping" so I do not help anymore. They have to show me they really want it. What I mean by this is something like.. "I want to do XYZ" Then I explain why XYZ is bad/good/indifferent and offer a solution and I get "but Joe snarky over there said it was OK" and they do it anyway. That is trying to get the answer you want to hear. Then it doesn't work or it DOES work for a short time and blows up or has some other side effect and now I am expected to resolve that.
