I thought this looked needed again.
------------------------------------------

Lately there seems to be an unusual amount of inappropriate posts in this forum. Inappropriate posts include those asking for advice about hardware or software, general questions, or seeking advice on a particular computer problem.

This forum is titled Highly Technical and is intended as a place for discussion about upcoming technologies and advanced topics. In this forum we have highly technical discusssions, not deliver technical support.

There are many other forums where these posts are more appropriate, including the Operating Systems forum for OS related issues and the Technical Support Q/A forum for help with specific problems.

Please keep this in mind when posting in this forum. From now on, I will simply lock any threads that are inappropriate.

What gets me is that Tech/QA is on the top of the forums list and they somehow end up posting it here lol.

they probably think that highly technical means "highly technical support"
