View Full Version : Something truly negative about this site.

I have a complaint to make about this site.

It contains so much damn information that I find that I never ever get to post anything anymore other than responses to others.

Take today for example, after the patch 3 loveliness I decided to resurrect my retired horde team of a pally and 4 shaman.
I realised that I hadn't played them since pre patch 2.3 (having parked them at a lowly level 61) so my knowledge on pally tanking and multiboxing ele shamans was outdated. Not to mention that their macros were no longer there.

So i fired up google and searched the site, which is far better than on site search. ( e.g site:dual-boxing.com <search phrase> )

Within mere minutes I had found

A variety of post patch 2.3 paladin tanking macros.
A patch 3 totem farm suggested sequence for my 4 shaman.
A complete focus macro setup courtesy of RobinGBrown.

How am I supposed to get my post count higher If every damn question I'm ever likely to ask has already been asked and answered comprehensively.
It's just not good enough :)

I'm having to resort to tongue in cheek posts. Crikey - if everybody used the search facility we'd have nothing to talk about :)

Who cares what your post count is? I will take the guy with 10 posts full of accurate and helpful information over the guy with 9000 posts with "LOL" ,"WTF PWNZ AGAIN", "3.1 SUCKS" anyday.

The post count reference was just a joke (as was the rest of the post). That's why I added the smileys. And the comment about the post being tongue in cheek,
and the ridiculous post title - Does it really seem a negative thing that I can get every single one of my questions answered by just using the search facility.

With all the time I saved you you could always go spank the monkey, again...

Seriously though, thanks for the mention, I really appreciate it, I'm glad I could help you.

Sorry about the post count.

With the painful Calluses and the repetitive strain injury, I'm not sure I should really be thanking you :)

You do make a good point about the google search being better then the on-site search. Perhaps it should be replaced with google search.
