Solve : Help or Reasearch????

Answer»
Is it me or are alot of the questions posted on this site just done out of laziness. I know people have varying degrees of expertise and would like ANSWERS but i read alot of posts that I, personally, don't know the answer to, so i google it and, more often than not, the answer is USUALLY in the top 4-5 results. If people cant use google how could they possibly 'remove malware' or 'replace a hard drive'. I gets on my nerves. I have problems with my PC. The hardware, software, html, games, but i would be embarrassed to CREATE a post when the answer can be found on the first page of a google search.

Does anybody have any views on this or am i just old and jaded?  Old and jaded.

Nice avatar by the way.


Really, you're not old and jaded. There are various reasons people don't look it up themselves. Be it laziness, LACK of comprehension, whatever.
But surely a google search as got to be QUICKER than waiting for a post to be answered. And, what is the difference between not comprehending the answer found in a search, but comprehending the reply to a post.

It just seems to me that i could spend litteraly hours on this forum researching other peoples problems and this eventually would make me alot more 'computer savvy', but most people seem to prefer the answer 'appearing' underneath their question than having a thirst for knowledge.
