I have noticed that there is several solutions to problems I encountered that may or may not have worked for my issue, but all is said is "I found the problem". Nothing else that is it, what was the problem ? Is it that hard to let us know or is it just that your too lazy ?

No flames intended but I speak the truth

Unfortunatly, it's nothing unique and particular for this forum. Alot of people come to forums to ask questions and get help, but when they do find a solution it doesn't spring to their mind that others might be in need of the solution, too. Or they couldn't care less because they got what they wanted.

On other forums you can clearly see that some people think the forum is there to help them for their particular issue, and not to help people in the future that run into the same problem. Like tech support. Very unfortunate.

I agree - post solutions when you do find them.

When I find a solution to a problem that I've posted I try to remember to come back and post the solution as well as editing the thread title and put *solved* at the end.
