lets try searching threads and tags before we make another post. chances are the question you ask has already been answered 1000 times if not by other members than the grow FAQ makes me sick seein the same threads day after day

do u have any idea how hard it is to search for shit. ether way its screwed up. its hard to find exact searches on things because of sheer numbers. But i can see why people would get pissed for seeing a what bulp do ineed or what nuts to use for the 600th time a day.
but the is this a male thread or is this nut burn or whats wrong with my plants threada I see nothing wrong with those.

I make new threads because when i try to search it doesnt work. Every single time i try to search it says it can not find what im looking for. I mean this is a forum anyways thats what its for. Talking to poeple asking questions. If its the same question over n over again answer them n try to get points.

the clear and only answer here is this is a public forum for people to post about the theoretical growing of canabis. they can post what ever they want if you don't want to deal with it then do just that don't. its not hard to not click a thread that you don't want to answer and yes i agree it sucks seeing the same shit day in and day out, but you have to accept that new members join everyday and you can't truthfully say that you have never asked a question on here that you couldn't have found the answer to your self with 30 minutes of online research or a quick search on the forum. this forum was made to ask questions if you don't like it well i guess thats to bad ??

Damn..... 2nd day here and I already feel like I'm bothering people by asking a questions or for help. But if, everyone knew all the answers, there would be no reason for this forum/site. I do want to learn "How To....", and "The Do's & Don'ts".

It's also easy to write a question about something with out looking for it. Or asking a question while I'm looking for it. Not to mention "WE" have a lot of knowledgeable people on here.

So the next time a "NOOB, FNG, NEWBIE, or whoever" want to know the answer, You don't have to write a log book for us. Just point us in the right direction.

Thanks in advance..... Can't Smoke

Hey cant smoke, don't worry about it. Many of us are here to answer questions and get our own questions answered. I spend time in newbie central just to see if I can help people. Maybe I succeed.

Nevertheless, it's kind of disappointing how little some folks try to discover things for themselves, like read every page of the growfaq, which while being kind of scattershot has a lot of the answers people are looking for. It's true that some of the best information on this site is buried deeply in old threads and the only way to get to it is read whole threads and it's not easy to get to, but that's life.

To grow weed you need to learn to grow weed. Learning means research, not just asking someone.

But ask me anything!bongsmilie

instead of using the RIU search engine, i google the question and usually the first site listed is a RIU post sometimes a couple months/years old... in fact that is why i joined this site cause it seemed i was on here all the time anyways... i wish my credit wasn't jacked up so could be an elitist myself... good evening!

Yea, I was reading that thread today. I was surprised to see this one spring up with the same general subject. Elite members aren't anything special. Just donate to RIU. I can't lock threads. Shoot a PM to FDD. Maybe he'll do something if it's getting out of hand. It's weird the way threads take on a life of their own.:?

It's already locked.

I wish people would stop complaining about the questions, it's newbie central people are going to ask tons of questions. If I don't feel like answering them I go to toke and talk to post gibberish and chill out. I would suggest that others do the same.

The staff are too stoned to do their jobs properly :p, whats the point in all the stickied posts at the top of the forum if nobody bothers to use them and staff don't discipline or advise when rules are broken?

I hate to sound rude, but people can do whatever they want on this site! What I mean is that if I need urgent help, do you honestly think I am going to take 3 hours and search 1000 forums? If you don't want to answer a forum then don't...Stop complaining!! Anyone can ask any question they want. Do you own RIU? I didn't think so...lol I am talking to you Goto...

A good idea i think would be to ceate a sticky where everyone goes and posts different techniques or methods per grow style. This way all the info available would be contained in one single thread.Like cloning 101, hydro 101,soil 101 but hey its just an idea thats probably already been thought of.
