Does this happen to anyone else?
>Search Google for an obscure but-should-be-obvious problem
(usually for Google products actually. is it just me or does Google remove more settings with each update?)
>First result, click
>Forum post of some kind, sometimes XDA sometimes something else
>First response to question is "Maybe you should use Google or any other search engine instead of asking painfully obvious questions on this forum!" then no answer to the question

I don't know why but responses like those always make me angry for the rest of the day (inb4 response like that). Next time you post on a non-anonymous forum, remember your response might be the first one on Google. This should motivate people to be nice more than forcing use of G+ ever did.

the issue stems from mass stupidity
when there is a new user posting stupid shit they usually didn't read the manual, or even search
it's too hard to distinguish retarded cunts from people with legitimate issues that haven;t been resolved
not a defense for being an asshole like that, but it makes sense

This. Ignorance is the only true evil OP. Like half the posts on /sci/ could be answered with a simple google search.

I would like to think this but the only time I resort to Google is when the manual is too convoluted to pan through (no ctrl f) or the manual doesn't have the answer. The energy it takes for them to whine is twice the energy it takes for them to pass the post or answer it if they know the answer (which they obviously don't)
Yeah.
But what's worse is when someone asks a question, and then later updates the thread with "Found a solution!! " without even posting their solution.

you should; a year later someone else will have this problem
