Re: Geez! I hate that!

I hate it when people ask for tech help (on the forum) and appear to have some idea of the problem ( and appear to want to fix themselves) so a number of forum members spend a whole heap of time narrowing it down over a few days and then finally the asker gets back a day or so later and says "yep my mechanic fixed it and you guys were right it was the XYZ" and he only charged me $500.
The forum do it yourself solution was probably $50.
I hate that, probably my fault for assuming the guy wanted to fix it himself, so worth the effort of looking up stuff, looking through notes and calling on previous experience for him.....and at the end of that an absolute waste of time.
Maybe askers should be required to tick a box that says "I'm just interested, but don't intend to do anything" or " I"m keen to fix this myself with your help".
Rant over!!!!!!!
