Stop telling people to read the bible...

[downfallofdisbelief]

Hey, i'm just kinda pissed cause every time a newbie posts something on here, he automatically gets the "Read the Bible".

The man is asking for your ADVICE, not your "read the bible dude".

All these guys want is a tip or two, Its pretty obvious where the bible is, thers a link at the top of the friggen page!!!

But yea, I think people need to stop using that as their posts. If you dont have a tip to give, dont post anything. Its better than useless info like "read the bible", a very obvoious thing. (assuming these newbies have EYES!)

I tell the newbies to use a search first

that is actually good advice because it could teach you other things than the questions answer you said.

Easy way out? No. Way of the DJ? Yes.

People complain about the same thing that you have before because I remember the post. Next time you make a post do a search

I didn't even notice the bible link till about my 10th post... I had no clue what people were talking about until someone told me...

Maybe they should change the color to make it stand out more?

I also didn't realize the "The Bible" thing was a link... I was searching around the site looking for the bible.... and it was right infront of me...

Tell me this, 400 people make the exact same post because they did not take the f*cking time to read the bible, would you want to reply to every single one?. Everyone knows the answers in there, just the newbies are too freiking lazy to do any work. If we're not hard on them, they'll never take any freiking action and just cling to us like someone on a crutch, its when you get rid of that crutch when you become a whole person.

Ask yourself, how bad do you want to become a don juan?

This whole site is about SELF improvement, not others giving advice to you. Sure, we may help you through a situation, but the majority of it is you. The bible is a guide to help you understand what we're talking about, and the way things work. Not only will you get more out of our responses, but you'll also figure a lot of it out yourself if you read it.

And at the rate you post, that was probably 3 minutes later.

Downfall.... go read the bible ffs!


=) J/K actually yea besides people not knowing about it, when you direct them to it, they will also see all the threads that cover so many other things that the new person didnt know about and end up learning a lot more that way then getting one piece of advice that they wont uderstand why it would work.
