> sometimes being confused leads to better answers huh? :wink:

I think the (our) frustration comes about because we take the time to explain something, yet you "get impatient and skip over" the things we took the time to explain.  You then repeat the same mistake that led to our initial explanation.  Most of us don't mind explaining something to people that want to learn, but we find it very disrespectful when we take time to teach, yet what we are teaching is ignored.  I suspect the "troll" comment earlier came about for this very reason.

I didn't "troll" anybody. he made a basic statement:

"here, use this if you want to learn so bad:

google"

why don't you be an honest moderator and try not to skip over 2 things since you want to be fair 1) this post isn't about me, I didn't make the original post, I asked a completely different question about a registry editor earlier in the week, and only got one sarcastic reply, why didn't you use moderative judgement in that thread?

2) I never asked frith anything, where did he jump in with his "frusterations" towards me in this thread. I don't remember being part of the discussion, I asked a question towards someone else, and then he gave me the sarcastic google comment. people had no problem giving the original poster TONS of advice. when I stepped in asking questions about sending and receiving end points with cross over, I was basically hijacking the thread. Not on purpose, but at best this is what I did. Original poster had no need for crossover cable, as he is setting up a dvr to his computer via a router, as I'm guessing from the statement of his post. if you really feel as though I'm wasting peoples time, you could always pm me and ask me to stop posting in the thread. I'd hate to tread on the moderators here, I saw someone get a warning for disagreeing with a moderators political questions in a thread I made in political discussions. it's almost ridiculous.

if someone wants to learn about straight through or cross over, maybe it'd be best for them to go to home depot or office depot or best buy. any advice you get online doesn't come with a warranty, so buy the cables you want at your own risk. I think the best advice given to the original poster was to stick with straight end to end pairing in this format TIA/EIA-568-A.1-2001 T568A Wiring with cat5 or cat6. I never claimed to be an expert, I was just trying to clarify a few answers. I'd sure hate to be building a floor with a ruler and saw and get people this frustrated asking questions. that is much simpler and I'd always have much much more questions, considering that one quarter inch difference can mess up the entire floor.

truthfully, I know my posts are not that burdensome, considering that I always get this type of feedback in other peoples posts when replying to someone else. Most of the time in threads I start, when people don't like my thread they just skip over it entirely. case in point I just made two threads, one about a 4 gb storage nvidia graphics card, and another about a registry editor. I don't know the threads were "burdensome", but it seems as though they are easy enough to skip over. I don't feel I've done anything wrong.

I'd rather ask questions then give constant advice online to someone about resoldering a gpu or cpu in an xbox 360, skipping the reflowing of the main board, and then getting mad when people call me out on my bad advice. I never told someone to directly mount a motherboard to the tower without mounters. I never told someone to delete data, or not back up data. I don't believe anyone on here has lost files or fried their computer because of me. I'm sure there are much worst posters. :shrug:

Also, I'm not really sure if you're trolling these tech. treads. Don't take this wrong imachavel, but you manage to miss the point not once, but consistently.

i think these posts pretty much sum up what i was saying/thinking.

i honestly cant tell if you are trolling or not. the other people who post on this board explain stuff and you somehow miss the point and begin rambling so much that i genuinely have no idea what you are talking about.. its pretty much every post too.

it is very difficult to teach something when you assume things and dont do any of your own research. take whatever is posted here and use that as a starting point for what to read up on. if i dont know something then google is the first place i go 99.9999% of the time.

i wasnt trying to be a dick.. i was being honest. you need to take in what people say and then read on your own to actually understand something/anything.
