Quick Check if this is against the rules.

Got downvoted for saying "Please use the search function" to a new member who asked a question that has been discussed thoroughly in the forums. I thought that's why we have a search function and that it is advisable to search first before reposting something that already exists. So why would someone downvote me for that?

You were down voted by a few ppl in that post but they corrected it. Truth is 90% of the time it's an accident on a touch screen phone. Did u lose points?
I see, thanks for the clarification. It lost 2 pts but the people in this thread made it right for me so I'm back where I should be
Looking at the question, and then your answer, I think you came off a bit condescending. (still against the rules to neg you a point).
I've suggested the same thing several times but phrase it like, " This topic has been discussed a lot in the forums. Try using the search function for Oral Trenbolone."
You might even try the search yourself to see if he gets the results you expect and perhaps copy a link or two.
biggerthanyouThe person who posted that was clearly inexperienced and sounded like a kid...AND was asking about oral tren. You couldn't have done better than "use the search bar" I should go neg you right now.
It's not against the rules...it's just someone's opinion. I understand where you're coming from. I've seen people ask the same question that had been asked just a maybe a couple of days before and their question could've easily been answered with a simple search. I personally think "use the the search" is a helpful answer as long as you're being gentle about it and not being an a-hole AND it looks like there's nothing in the post that indicates research was done. You SHOULD NOT be down voted for this. It's a reminder for people to do their research. Hell yea, I'm all for helping people. But we always tell people to do their research, but do we actually promote that when the situation comes up? I think people probably down vote because they might think you're being an a-hole and not trying to help. Having said that, it's also perfectly ok choice to just go ahead and answer, but it kind of encourages laziness then.
Exactly. I mean this is one reason we have stickies too right, so people read and research before asking common questions. That is why the search function is there , people have started threads before that might be exactly like yours. This is the thread btw: http://www.eroids.com/forum/steroids-qa/anabolic-steroids/oral-tren-meth...
I think my comment couldn't be more in the right place for such a question.
Anw thanks man, Ill just shrug it off and continue helping people as I always do
Fixed. That's something else I have an issue with....if you're going to neg at least say why. Btw, doing a search turns up Gfits experience with GP oral tren.
RustyhookerProvably an accident. Big ass thumbs on iPhone. Not worth worrying bout
AnonX2 I've lost karma because of people's thumbs. Pm a mod and they can help ya
Or maybe someone on Tren. Lol, guess I was right though. Thx bud
lol Tren. But yeah I usually tell people to do searches as well. no worries +1
waltrit could have come across as being a dick =/
without voice inflection it's hard to get the context of what people are saying sometimes =/
Damn, even with a please in there lol.
