Guest anguscanplay Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I suggest the !!..DIY Alarm Installers..!! forum is completely removed because every time someone with a DIY, note DIY, problem comes along all they ever get is ridicule & completely unhelpful comments, mostly one liners.Thought we were not supposed to keep quiet if we can't help?, but there again it seems to be who you are. Er Greytecsolutions is a DIYer sorry my mistake then Magpye if someone asks a DIY question they more often than not get an answer to their problem, unfortunatly usualy the answer isnt the one they wanted to hear , often because the solution involves the lack of ability that brought them to an internet forum in the first place and then as a follow on to their pridictable reply the ridicule starts. If they start with a daft question just cut to the chase. example recently " since i cleaned my k/p the sensors chime " - answerable and was " how do i reboot my monitored c/u " not answerable Security company asking about a response alarm lol angus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be youre getting the best advice already I just knew you would not understand. 1. I did not ask the question see #1 2. If you have such a problem with answering DIY questions ...

'Ask The Trades' Whoops, forgot to say, I assume you don't know then but TSI is an Affiliate: SECURITY INSTALLER on the Ask The Trades forum, so anyone from there can get pointed straight back here.

Guest anguscanplay Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 a lot of the " abused " Diy`ers also try there luck here - now you think this forum is unhelpfull abandon hope all ye who enter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arfur mo Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 So nobody has misbehaved then. Whilst the comments may be critical of the system, does this not say something about the standing the product has within the industry?? might be the case, but i see it that this o/p has asked for our decent help, not to be barracked without mercy. just because we know what is the better kit should not be a reason to pick on a defensless DIY' er. it sets a view that we are so far up our own superior apex's we all have brown teeth, and i don't mean through smoking either. regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!
