Posting a Proper Question.

[Equ1N0X]

Even with the creation fo my Ascent/antrix FAQ, i've seen alot of questions on the forums, and alot of the time you may not receive an answer because of the way your post is set up. So im posting a small guide on ow to ask a question in the way so that if my thread does not answer your question, someone else easily can.

Step one: Creating a title.
Most people will not even think about clicking a thread whose title is "HELP PLZ OMG ASCENT PROB" or "LOGGING TO GAME SERVER STUCK"

So heres a Sub-guide for a clear cut title.
a) depending on whether you have a dilemma with ascent or antrix, use [ascent] or [antrix] or [ManGos] tags.
b) If you have a question, use a [Question] tag after emu type, if a request, use [Request] Tag.
C) after the above, summarize your problem into a format which allows the reader to know your general problem:

[Ascent][Request] Skeletal dragon mount.
you quickly know "Ah, this is a guy asking for a skeletal dragon mount".

Step 2, The posting of your problem.
Here I will create a generic text skeleton to show where to put things.

1: State your problem, Your Database, and things you have tried.
2: Tell us what was the last thing you or another Admin/GM did before problem started.(Check GMlogs in your repack to see commands used)
3: If an error with your emulator Exe's, post a screenshot of the error message

If an SQLyog executing error, click "view error file" then scroll down to the bottom and copy last error(s).

If an ingame problem, post details about what triggers it

4: POLITELY Request assistance, or to be directed to a guide which will fix the problem.

Step 3, Recieving an answer.
Now you will wait, if a dobt is coming form someone who helps you, privide them with needed information and try not to flame them, they ARE trying to help.

Now wait until someone gives you an answer, this step requires you to be able to read one of the following language and have an IQ above 30.

English
Spanish
German
Dutch
Norsk
Greek
French
Italian
Portuguese
Chinese
Japanese
Russian
Slavic
Any local form of Creole in your region.

or one of the many other languages spoken around the world, chances are, if you speak it, someone in mmowned can translate it for you if you don't understand English too well. Now you thank the person and acknowledge their help, if you have rep power, you can +Rep them to show gratitude.(the button is along bottom rim of post)

Congratulations! you have just Successfully asked a question and received an answer!

Tinkerfoe - my twocents

for translations of instructions given the person posting can/should just post in english and add it in that other language which takes 10 seconds to paste and translate using AltaVista - Babel Fish Translation (bable fish translator)

putting it in both languages will allow the person asking to read and understand it, and at the same time allow others to see it and suggest other fixes/answers or point out changes needed to that replay posted

and yea i agree with ya fully
