Exactly what I was thinking too!Lafolie wrote:I don't believe that this is the correct way to go about things. If a new löver wishes to share their project but does so ineptly we should teach them how rather than punish them. All it takes is a link to the wiki or something, and the post would likely be updated quickly as they're probably checking on it often in excitement. If the post contains too little information, is that so bad? For yourself, it's just a case of hitting the back button. For them, well, they undersold themselves, they should have done a little research (5 minutes looking at some posts in P&D?).
This thread in Support and Development probably exists for a completely different reason, though.Ensayia wrote:Whoops, it looks like the post I was referring to was in Support and Development.Xrott wrote: I don't think there even is a "read before posting"-thread in the project-section.

Perhaps creating said post would be a good idea then?
If someone writes in the support-section, he probably wants to have help as quickly as possible. If everyone had to remind the person to provide more information it would slow down things considerably. In the project-section, however, there isn't really any urgency, so it wouldn't make much of a difference if people had to ask for more informations.
That's at least how I see it.
