When you are experiencing problems with your bike this is what you need to do, in this order. Put your problem in the search box and hit search. This site has A LOT of good information on it. If you are not satisfied or confident with your findings then start a new post in the proper section. Follow these steps.....

(1) State why you think you have a problem using ENGLISH and try not to write a 400 word post without using a period :o

(2) Members reply with suggestions and usually ask the original poster to perform some tests. Usually air leak test and Compression test

(3) THE OP NEEDS TO PERFORM THE TESTS OR FOLLOW SUGGESTIONS

(4) Report the results of tests and suggestions

(5) If the problem was fixed then the OP still needs to post results so others can learn when using the search key.

(6) If the problem was not fixed post the results a.s.a.p. Eventually the problem will be solved.

(7) There are a lot of very smart people on here that are more than willing to help. Troubleshooting is a lot easier if the OP follows these steps.
 
^^^^^^^^I:II:II:II:II:I. That's a great idea because most problems get solved but the original thread starter doesn't report back. Although that could be considerd as a success because otherwise they would keep asking, but we don't know what response they went with because there are a few most of the time.. Most importantly your right, although there are some discrepancies at times about certain performance things and such but 99% of the time all the bs nonsense steps aside to help someone with a problem and to get them running again.. Yes we all have our own opinions, and certain ways to do things but in the end we fix problems together. That's what makes this forum so great..we all have our own way of going about things but in the end most but not all is in the best interest for cause of helping out the fellow man (or woman)...
 
Good idea bro, this should benefit the forum and our members ! It's very annoying when theres 10 identical threads for no reason, or when someone requests help/suggestions then abandons that thread as soon as the problem is solved.
 
Good thread. The more info given on a problem the better. It's hard to help when all you get is ( my Blaster won't run. Why ? ).

You seriously need some spacing in your posts....

No offense, but its VERY hard to follow...
Yesterday you have one with about 20-30 lines, i cant follow that without getting bugged-eyed!
 
this is a good idea, it works with some people but others will still do the same thing because the y don't want to waste the time to search they think it's quicker to make a post and wait for someone to reply. it's on all forums that I'm on currently, same underlying problem, it's as bad as 2 faced people on other forums and they talk about one forum on another. u may alleviate some of the problem but won't ever go away completely, it's the nature of the forum beast.

I find if your on a computer it can be easier if you left click and drag over the text your reading to see it better. If you know what I mean.
