Duxz is what we call a self-reliant newbie. He does his homework, and only ask questions that pertaining issues that have not been answered in the forum, or that huge iPhone Club Version 7 Thread, or the WinPwn thread.

You however, rely solely on feeding from people without even bothering to look things up before you open your mouth, either asking or before the spoonfeeding ceremony itself. LYN is an info-sharing community, and that sharing thing, is a TWO way street, not just ONE way. What good are a member, if he does not contribute to the community he joins in if all he does is open his beak and ask being fed like a day old chick to its mother bird?

Enjoy your thread while it lasts, this thread have been reported. icon_rolleyes.gif

The main issue here is responsibility. The TS dont feel responsible towards his iPhone 3G because "it was a gift to him". When you are given something with so much power, that power comes with responsibility as well. And you TS exercise very little of it. You dont feel compelled to look around for answers to your questions here first, or in obvious places like Apple's own webpage, and its online User Guide before asking. I believe even the Quick Start Guide that comes with the iPhone 3G even points towards this.

Your first thread was about these:-

QUOTE
1) i insert my previous sim card to the Iphone, all the contact list in the sim card is gone. Do it mean i need to key in again all the contact list or is there any other ways?

2) i found that the phone is without MMS and video conference feature, is that true? seem not a perfect 3G phone...
Answer to #1 can easily be obtained from Apple.com itself, where the Quick Start Guide would point to. #2 was an obvious example on how uninformed you are, because "you get it as a gift", hence you dont have even the responsiblity of looking up the simplest things like this. Your ignorance and lack of responsibility of finding out the simplest things like these are apparent from these questions alone.

Your second thread already borders on piracy, asking for web links directing towards free songs and such. I posted my response in there, which is pretty much civil, but you realised what you have done and edited the first post yourself. Piracy and the act of piracy is not condoned in LYN, and even that you fail to look up, that is part and parcel of the rules and regulations that you have to abide with before you even sign up a username with! shakehead.gif

So, to other newbies, dont listen to this guy. We dont eat newbies for breakfast, we just eat them if they are people like this guy. In fact we welcome info-sharing no matter what status you are in the forum, new or old. The TS is only bitter than his shenanigans was exposed and is seeking textual revenge.

here the repeat answer: i found my mistakes, do the research close the question and say sorry within 1 hour after posting.....
BUT, the issue still growing and growing........

See? You dont even know how to LOCK your own goddamned thread!? If you have locked it, none of that 4-page spillage would have happened. Dont start here by asking HOW to though, then THAT would show how ignorant you are about the basics of this forum's facilities. And you are saying that we are being cruel to you? You brought this on yourself!
