"Help Needed" I am seeing alot of it lately on the boards

I have noticed alot lately that people are repeativly posting multiple numbers of forums about the same topic. Alot of is beacause Uplink is extremly new to the mac and many people are begining to play it. Many of these people freak-out when they encounter a problem that they think is a bug.

Examples:
Trouble completing an accademic mission(they mix up the Other Qualifications and Graduate Qualifactions box)
Trouble hacking banks
Problem with Criminal database

Two suggestions to you people:
Search through the forums before you post; you will find an answer to you're question.
If you're having trouble with missions, go here: (url="http://"http://guide.modlink.net/index.php")http://guide.modlink.net/index.php(/url)

Now please make the board a better place and not so mixed up by not being lazy like this.

Please be careful what you say. Some users may have only just registered and don't know about any of these features. I am not saying this angrily, but please try not to say things that will offend quite a few people. For instance, saying they are lazy is probably not the best way of going about this. Sorry if I'm acting like a moderator. I'm trying not to! 🙂 And also, people make mistakes. Keep that in mind when posting! 😉

  1. Last time there was a topic like this, I asked why the topic poster thought that anyone who doesn't look through a forum first before posting is going to read this topic. I will ask you the same question.

1-Exactly what I was thinking. Maybe you should change the "Uplink has been released" message up there to something for the newcomers.
2-Mods always tell people not to do a mods job

No, that's not telling us how to do our jobs. Behaving and being helpful are encouraged.

However, in this case, I do appreciate the suggestion.

This topic won't go anywhere, so I'm just going to lock it and be done with it.
