people always saying "why don't u go search google for the answer or wutever? wuts the point of this board? to help ppl out when they have questions why do ppl cut up other ppl for asking a question that someone on the board might be able to answer. thats why most ppl post on this website because they have a question. so wut does it help when u tell them to go search on google.someone else might be able to answer it better or quicker

yeah people told me that kind of thing plenty of times! If you bother to respond, why waste the time just sending someone around in circles? As the late Chris Farley would say "For the love of God, YOU CRUEL HEARTLESS BASTARDS! JUST ANSWER THE DAMNED QUESTION!" Or something like that! PEACE

I detest google. Not just because of people suggesting it on forums, but it's everywhere! the new answer for everything is go google it! i'm boycoytting google. I dont want to google. no more googling

I tried google but it just said "Stop being lazy and ask cannabis.com god why do I have to do everything?"

Maybe you should do a google search instead of posting a new thread with each idea that comes into your head..

Oh, I only kid.. But seriously, we dont need 300 threads about what the difference between Indica and Sativa is. I agree that people tend to jump on n00bs a little early at time, but most of the time its deserved.

Mainly its the people who are regulars here. I am starting to consider myself a regular, and when I see a the same fuckin' post every week, it does begin to annoy you.

I am a 'newish' grower, and I learned everything by either my growers handbook or googling or searching on various forums. When I see a post that says, "I have a seed that I planted like 4 days ago, when can I smoke it???!"

Very annoying. Everything you want to know (about *anything*) can be found on google, which is the exact reason why people say google it. If you don't understand the term 'google', then you must not know how valueable that resource is. It is quick, easy, doesn't bitch, reliable and better than any other search engine. google.com is my homepage.

There is something to that newfangled google.com, i *promise* you.

Why should we waste our time explaining the same shit over and over again. Someone can take 5 minutes out of their own day, type what they need in google and get the info they seek. Why should we take the time to answer a question that has been asked thousands of times when the thread starter was simply to lazy to look for it on his/her own?

It is going to happen from newer members, I was quilty of it. Eventually after being told a few times I started using google. Others should use it as well.

I only search Yahoo! for almost the same answers, but it actually is a better search engine.

While Google has a ton of money and the most complex algorithms, Yahoo has all news related items, an unbelievable Yahoo! answers page, and all fantasy sports. Not to mention that they have a much better image search.

yeah and now scroogle.org offers both Yahoo and Google searches without all the spying or data logging or whatever!

I will always give as good an answer as I can as I too am of the opinion that the whole point of CC is to share knowledge.
If I don't know the answer I will direct the asker to the stickies as they usualy cover most subjects.
I find the "just google it" attitude to be the least helpful for people who wish to be educated by the older and (most of the time) wiser heads of CC.
If you can't give a simple answer without being an arse on a forum who's sole purpose is education then that's pretty bad IMO.

Good to hear
funny though how the thread was started in 2004 and it took 3 years to get a 2nd response!

A little bit of homework on your part will go a long way... The point being that if every noob came in here and asked the same questions without even thinking about doing a little research first, it gets real tiresome answering the same questions multiple times a day, day in and day out.

I frequent other forums that have the same problems... people just drop in and expect the pros to spoon feed them the same info hundreds of times a month(sometimes weekly), without any thought to doing a simple search, or if they are even capable of performing the task they are asking about without hurting themselves or somebody else.

Not trying to be mean or ugly here, just stating simple facts.

to the noob's, for every 'google it' you get there are probably at least 50 other people that see your post and just ignore it.
be greatful that at least someone bothered to say anything in response to your first grade question.

if you really want to grow, read the FAQ, then, as Stinky says, when you ask a question, it will be a good question, a relavent question, a question that demonstrates your willingness to do SOME of the work on your own.
under those circumstances there are dozens of people here willing to answer your questions.

be advised, these are the meanderings of a mad man, completely imaginary and should in no way be taken seriously, especially Leo

why boycott THE MOST useful website on the internet? The whole concept of google is to find answers for you, kinda defeats it's purpose if you don't ask it something

Peace

Ha ha! This thread is hillarious! The guy asks his question in 2004, and gets one response the next day. Then it's THREE YEARS later someone else chimes in with a pointless post about, "I hate Google." Holy crap! I'm sure by that point the guy had either finally decided to just "Google it," or had died of boredom and old age waiting for his answer. And then a year after that SpaceToker picks it up again with, "Yeah, and with Scroogle...." as if the conversation is still going on!

It's like a stoner who is so wasted that he zones out in the middle of a conversation about cereal, and two hours later, when everyone is talking about who Obama should pick for VP, he jumps in with, "Yeah, Fruitloops are good."
