Cooks Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 the FAQ section is info only, no posting, if you ahve a query it's best to find the best section in the forum and post a question is there anything you need help on?? if I can help I will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 The FAQs are there for people to refer to. They are locked so that they contain precise info (not always ) and are for reference. The chicken section below is for general questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 They are locked so that they contain precise info (not always ) You should really sort that out, some of the FAQ posts are really messy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToryLou Posted April 11, 2010 Author Share Posted April 11, 2010 So, it appears I am being dumb, and also, apparently, rather bad with my grammar!! I obviously didn't post in this section! so, I shall add forgetful to the list. it did seem rather odd that these were locked as they seemed to be 'normal' posts thanks folks Torylou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I've just had a trawl through the faqs and they didn't strike me as being messy, and at first glance, the information seemed to be correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Most of them are fine, just some of them are 2 or more pages long. If I was looking for information I wouldn't bother with such long ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 There would be complaints if the information wasn't there, Fred, We have to remember that some members are not experienced with computers, and in particular, how to use a forum, so have provided as much info as is possible. A great deal of work went into their preparation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 The reason some of them look like normal threads and are a bit long is that they started off as a normal thread and then it was realised that they contained helpful information that would be better suited to a fledgling FAQ section.

Fair enough. A great deal of work went into their preparation. A great job you have done there, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
