A few manners go a long way..

... when posting in the Troubleshooting Section.

I'm new to posting here on the forums though I've been using uTorrent for some time now and have recommended it to tons of people. I am, have been, and will continue to be a WinMXer (hold the boo's and gasp of horror). I recently started to see a few fellow winmx users posting here. Having users I know / know of is great and all BUT it's also a pain considering the way some community members there have not a clue as to how to approach a problem without negativity.

Here's a list of things to remember when posting a problem with uTorrent:

1. Being polite is a plus BUT showing respect should be a MUST.

2. Think before you post your opinion when you have NO technical data to back it.

3. Ask questions without the useless vocabulary. Trying to get assistance from a person is rather stupid when your post is full of profanity and/or slander towards a person OR the software.

4. Even if you are totally clueless just ask. I'm sure Firon will tire of me soon. :oP

5. If you think uTorrent is the cause of one thing or another try to research the problem before hand. (If you notice a trend make note of it. Read logs if you have them. etc.) Try to post anything that you think will help getting you fixed.

6. Remember... this is not the same "community" as WMX. I doubt the battle / slander / accusation mentally that seems to flow freely with WMX is wanted here though ignored due to the persons willingness to assist.

This isn't meant to offend. It's just a reminder to apply common sense and courtesy when posting. I'd just hate to see things get to a point where people come here for the latest gossip/battle instead of the purpose its intended.

I was thinking of stickying it, but I got caught up in trying to find a way to merge his post into the ettiquette thread and got subsequently distracted ^^;;

An old quote but so true;

" Common sense isn't very common "

Perhaps this is not the best forum to pose questions related to problems? My first one, and the administrator immediately begins with an accusatory response. Is there another forum where it is possible to receive genuine assistance? If so please direct me to it. Thank you.

Be more specific that it happens on ALL torrents next time. And since I don't really want discussion on this sticky...
