Gojira Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Hey guys!I've noticed we get a ton of questions from new people in the live chat, regarding how to use the bot or how to use scripts. Could you please add an automatic personal message to a new member's inbox with links to the tutorial section? This will help avoid all these noobs bothering others in the live chat. It gets old pretty quickly when you answer a question and five minutes later there's someone asking the exact same thing.. 3
DarkzSide Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Very good suggestion, i always thought of this, many other forums use this. +1 Like.

Gojira Posted May 25, 2013 Author Posted May 25, 2013 Great suggestion as much as i agree i dnt wanna be an ass but doubt they will do this i always believed your never looked at unless your sponsor+ :P hope it works bro SUPPORT Nah, thats not true at all. They might give sponsor suggestions priority, but I dont knowThey do look at all suggestions and I'm sure they will implement this.
stasherman Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 How about making a topic 'READ THIS 1ST - ASK THEN' ? :P It's ok to help people but like Gojira said it gets pretty annoying, and will fill up the chat sooner or later...
Whopper Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 In vBulletin, there's a modification called "Force Read Thread" which forces specific usergroups (i.e. registered users, sponsors, VIPs, etc) to view a thread before proceeding. We could redirect them to a FAQ thread that has the answers to all of their questions. I'm not sure if they have this for IP.B, but I also agree with the PM idea. 1
