Everyday it seems like there are twice as many people asking what apps to get, how to get them, and why isn't my ftp working. Maybe someone can put a Pinned post that says if you need ftp help or need apps help look here. And inside it could have the xbins guide and the everything you need to know about ftp'ing guide. Just a thought

We can't keep pinning and putting links EVERYWHERE.

As it stands.. we now have pinned threads in every forum.. some with key thread and guides pinned or are alist of such threads.

Then we have a dedicated forum called FAQ's which answer many common questions.

To top it off.. we have tutorials.xbox-scene.com

Bottom line.. we can make it a big blinking LINK with an OK button on login.. and it won't stop the often repeated questions.

Some will always read and use the resources and find the answers easily. Others will be lazy.. ignore pinned topics.. faq forums.. and dedicated tutorial sections on the main site.

Frankly.. once people get to a point that they are irritated with these repetitive questions in newbie chat.. they should be moving on to the dedicated discussion areas and no longer cruise newbie chat unless they are there to help.. and willing to help at the level people there need.
