Newbies please read this

Please dont flame me for this because im just informing the the new people here about something. Im glad GTA VC got so many new players over this holiday break but I would just like to inform you, if you didnt know already, that there is a search area for you to use for all your old questions like stuff about helicopters and the ultimate vehicle and missions that occur earlier in the game. Im suggesting you use this rather then post more questions that have already been answered because most likely it is old news to most of us and it has been posted here a billion times already so you will probably not get an answer because people are tired of writing about it over and over again. So using the search thing will probably be more effective. It will give you multiple topics that are here already on what you are asking about so you will have a much better chance of getting your question and so on answered. So try to use it because like I said before there isnt a great chance people are going to answer your questions because it is old to them already. thanks.

Just to mention that the default setting for the search is posts one month old or less, so there will be times when you can't find the information required, as it will be very old news for most of us.  I agree with your sentiment, we all get a bit annoyed by the silly questions asked, but I want to ensure that Newbies (not n00b's) feel that they can post thier questions, without fear of flaming, if they can not find what they are looking for.  

 

I'm often surprised when I learn something new in a topic that I think is old hat, new people = new idea's.  Let's not worry too much about the influx of newbie's to the forums (that is only a good thing for GTA and these forums in the long run) yes there will be some n00b's mixed in there, but then we would not have the opertunity to ridicule these people for thier daft post's etc, plus you never know what you'll learn.

 

Could do without the spam though!!
