PotGuy Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Sorry to bump, but has there been an update or conclusion to this thread...? (Has been over a month!) Quote

PotGuy Posted April 9, 2013 Posted April 9, 2013 I think the issue with Facebook/Twitter/Whatever usage is that it would attract people who wouldn't benefit the Forums and start many threads that mean nothing. While there will be those who would want to positively contribue to the Forum, I could see people who would end up getting this site site block posting garbage. Quote
Cad64 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 "What would you like?" I would just like to get a simple "Thank You" when I help someone to solve their problem. That's not too much to ask . . . Is it? Quote
PotGuy Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Alright. Thank you in advance of any help you give me! Quote

Cad64 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Thanks Button makes it easy and convenient to thank someone without having to post. Well, the guys I'm referring to probably wouldn't even use the button. They just take my help and then come back a few days later asking more questions, with never so much as a "Thanks". Quote
tzframpton Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Well, the guys I'm referring to probably wouldn't even use the button. They just take my help and then come back a few days later asking more questions, with never so much as a "Thanks".Lol, you get that too, huh? I like the idea of a Thanks button. They have something similar to this over at the RevitForum.org site, and what's good about it you can filter searches with this as a filter option. When someone has a golden tip, more people will respond and makes it easy for others to easily find these types of invaluable responses. Quote
Cad64 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Lol, you get that too, huh? Yeah, there are a couple of guys who have made a habit of picking my brain without thanking me for my time. I guess I just feel like they're taking advantage and I'm tired of it. They are definitely the exception though, not the rule. 99.9% of the members here are great. It's just that 0.1% that gets under my skin. Sorry for the detour. Quote
neophoible Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Well, the guys I'm referring to probably wouldn't even use the button. They just take my help and then come back a few days later asking more questions, with never so much as a "Thanks". Yes. I don't read every thread, but I've noticed this a few times. I've wondered if perhaps someone else shouldn't suggest they say 'Thank You' before asking another question. At least on this forum it is common courtesy to express it, that is, most show they are quite thankful for the help. Of course, if they are donating, then that might be thanks enough. Quote
PotGuy Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Lol @ last part. That's why this idea is good. Quote
tmelancon Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I second the thanks too! I know time is valuable so I make sure to be thankful! Quote
PotGuy Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 I second the thanks too! I know time is valuable so I make sure to be thankful! This. This. Quote

Tuns Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 (edited) I think (and probably several others as well) that a AutoCAD LT customization forum would be very popular. There's a lot of LT users out there that would probably find it nice to be able to use a forum focused on LT only. This entire website is mostly based on people who have the full version of AutoCAD so why not make something to help us who are limited to LT only? Or change the CUI, hatches, line types, and macros forum to AutoCAD LT, CUI, and Macros and direct people elsewhere for hatches and line types. Just an idea so those who are only on LT that don't know where to look will find it in the search engines or from browsing your site and go "OH THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR ALL FREAKIN' DAY" or somewhere along those lines.

ReMark Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 There are websites dedicated entirely to LT. I'm sure you've encountered them in your travels right? Quote
Tuns Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 There are websites dedicated entirely to LT. I'm sure you've encountered them in your travels right? Yes I have, however, I really love CAD Tutor and I would love to see something like this come about. Quote
ReMark Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 You can create a Poll and see what other members think of the idea and/or contact David Watson and put the question directly to him. I'll support you for what that might be worth. Quote
chungcuviet Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 I'd like to add my voice against facebook and twitter as well. They turn me away from a lot of other sites. (But then again, being a nerd doesn't require social behavior. Quote
