Hellfire010 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 The forum description states "Talk about other stuff in here. Keep it clean and reasonably intelligent!" This indicates it's meant for just about anything else, related to pdn or not. I came here to ask a tech support type question, but was stopped when I saw various other posts locked and a new announcement prohibitting such posting. Well, it's your program, your forum, your rules... but perhaps you should consider a few things based on the popularity of these type of posts. [*:a0a80]Allowing tech support in The Overflow.[*:a0a80]Making a seperate board for everything off topic, or specifically for tech support, and edit the description of The Overflow to specify it's still meant for PDN discussion only. Just ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickman Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 The Overflow is to chat, I believe, and to post off-topic things. We're not tech supporters, if you want tech support, go to another forum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Brewster Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 ... perhaps you should consider a few things ... They were considered. And the decision was made. No tech support.

aatwo Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I agree with Hellfire. I don't see why such topics should be locked and destroyed in a frenzy of doom. I don't see how this is different to other topics like these. 9th grade math help http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=2165 This isn't a 9th grade math help forum so why was that ok? C# Random number question http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=2616 simililarly, this isn't a C# help forum so why was this ok?

Rick Brewster Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I'm sorry you disagree. Anyway this isn't up for discussion -- this isn't a tech support forum, and discussing it more and painting this as extremist won't change my decision. We can argue forum taxonomy all day but in the end it's my call.
