It gets me mad

    I'm not sure if I'm alone in this situation or did you experience it as well. You post a question and you get dumb answers like "check Google".:mad:
    Why people who have nothing to say answer the questions all the time.
    It just drives me sooooooo mad.

    yeah, I know I shouldn't really get angry - Just ignore.
    I asked the question today on another forum relating php and I got this type of answer. At the end of the discussion I finally proved to the guy that he is an idiot as what he told me can not be done is happily installed on my website LOL

    Some questions people don't know, but they do know that the answer could easily be found online. I suppose if both are online, it wouldn't take much more effort to look it up for someone.

    In case you are curious, this was the first result for your question: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080930060714AAR9urJ

    some time the question is to easy for the person who reply but is very hard for us ....
    when I'm noob in PHP, i don't even know how to change the sidebar.php, i try google for hour n day which still can't find the right answer, that why we ask and hopefully some one will answer it, today same thing happen to me when i see same question but i won't ask them to google it, if i know the answer, cause sometime google is a mesh for u to search a right answer ....

    Another reason why people say "check Google" is because they want to increase their post count and have nothing constructive to say. :)

    Its just a lot of times answers that can be found by the forum search or on google just a click away are asked in forums. I think people get tired of answering the same questions but the thing is its basically as simple to answer the questions as it is to waste your time giving a useless answer. But saying check google is not always useless. I mean sometimes its just such a simple question and they can find it on their own.

    Sometimes I just do the search for them and copy and paste the search or the answer into my post to show them.

    well,IMO some people write this because "they might read it on Google" or they are "noobs"

    but the point is,you can't expect everyone to give you a "perfect" answer.You might only get one right in a hundred.in a forum you have to deal with all these sort of stuff.

    still if you think that i wasn't clear...you can "Google" it....hehehe just kiddin :)

    It's just makes me laugh how fast people forget when they were new to something and needed help.:(

    99% of the questions that result in a "Use Google" reply CAN be answered with Google. What's the point of somebody rewriting information that is EASY to find in Google?

    Exactly.
