Why we have the DIY section (NEWBIES read THIS!!!!)
 
I've noticed just about every new guy here with a technical question goes straight to the DIY section. THIS IS NOT THE SECTION TO POST TECH QUESTIONS!

The DIY section is for the exact opposite reason. This section is to allow people with good technical write-ups a way to SHARE with people how to DO IT YOURSELF on various subjects such as a Sprocket change, Headlight replacement, Carburettor adjustment, etc...

If you have a TECH QUESTION, go to the GENERAL TECH section to ask. DON'T POST YOUR TECH QUESTIONS HERE!

I wonder if a moderator could keep this post at the top of the DIY index.... That would be a very good idea!

shouldn't be necessary since the sticky at the top posted 2 years ago already states that its for "how to" information and not tech questions.

If people were reading that guideline posted 2 years ago, I wouldn't be posting this topic we're all reading today. You're still new here, but go ahead and read all the posts before this one. Just about every one of them is a tech question post. The simple fact is people don't read those guidelines like they should.

you don't have to tell me (even though i do read them) - I got a laugh out of how many posts in here were tech questions and how old that sticky was.

so the question is how do you make people read and obey?

so whats wrong with just moving all the things to the right sections and clearing out the DIY to just DIY information.

markmeinteil 07-30-2007 04:46 PM

RE: Why we have the DIY section (NEWBIES read THIS!!!!)
 
IDK. If I was a mod, I probably would move a bunch of them, or start removing each one I see that doesn't belong here.

I'm a noob mod, or I would do it, but I don't' want to mess anything up. Maybe someone could give me a link to a thread that needs to be moved and where they think it should go and I'll try one. I'm up for suggestions and help.:eek: deej + help = noob mod [8D]

deej 07-30-2007 05:19 PM

RE: Why we have the DIY section (NEWBIES read THIS!!!!)
 
Maybe I can't even do that. I don't really know what I can and can't do, so for now I have been playing it safe. ;)

RE: Why we have the DIY section (NEWBIES read THIS!!!!)
 
Just think of it this way. Newbies, If you have to ask in the DIY section, you need to DO IT YOURSELF! Ask in the Tech section or even the bike models forum section for TECH support. Pretty simple I think. So that would mean all of this post/ threadshould be gone from here.

Make it so Number One!
