PokémonTrainerFour got a reaction from elfensky in The Ultimate Posting Topics Correctly Guide
The Sections of LTT
The Community Portal
There are 4 important sections here that you can post in, unless you're into F@H, Boinc, or just mining.
These are:
General Discussion Troubleshooting Off Topic Hot Deals These are NOT places to dump your topics. Actually check out the other subforums.
General Discussion
Everyone's personal topic dump. Or is it?
General Discussion should only be used for tech related topics that can't fit anywhere else (like favorite all-round brand, or your favorite color scheme).
Do not dump your topics there. If your post is about RAM, put it in the RAM section ffs.
Troubleshooting
If you got a problem, we can fix it. Unless we already have (See: Search Function).
No real guidelines, except that you should gather as much data as possible, such as:
Hardware OS version Driver Version The Windows/your OS here crash dump file What you were doing when the problem happened If the problem is unique to one piece of software Off Topic
If you feel like shitposting, put it here.
Nothing is too off topic for off topic, as long as it follows the CoC.
Hot Dealios
Awesome sales and stuff go here.
Essentials of the title:
[Platform/Country where sale takes place] item, percent/dollars off, @place
Include in your post:
Thoughts (optional) Slightly more detail on the sale Pls no dupes
News, Reviews, Articles and Guides
Here, there are 3 places you can create a topic in. They are:
Tech News and Reviews Member Reviews Guides and Tutorials Great place to start if you want to have your handle said on The WAN Show find the latest tech news, get another point of view, or just figure out how to build a desk from IKEA.
Tech News and Reviews
If you found the hottest new news piece like Samsung being stupid again or information about Tonga, post it here!
Unless it's been posted already. Remember our friend the search function? Use it! Or, just browse the first three pages.
If posting a news topic:
Quote at least 1 interesting thing from your source (use the quote button in the text editor). Have at least some personal input - Have personality! Link your source at some point in the thread. Optional: Use pictures if they are important. Again, remember to search before posting.
Member Reviews
No comments from me, if someone wants to help me fill out this section, please do!
The only real tips I have are:
Have some glamour shots. Nitpick, tell us every little flaw. You don't need to be completely objective: It's your opinion: not someone else's! Guides and Tutorials
Do you have a good way to solve a problem? Post it here!
Again, I can't say much, but:
Be very detailed, like a (good) manual. Pictures or screenshots. IMPORTANT: Guides and Tutorials is NOT a place to ask for help, it is for, well, actual guides.

PokémonTrainerFour got a reaction from Tedster in How overpriced is alienware? Price comparison
You're paying for looks, and in the case of the laptops, being built like a tank.
Similar to Razer.

PokémonTrainerFour got a reaction from MrDynamicMan in A look back into the past - Chandlers Laptop
I prefer my games to run at a silky smooth 24 FPS, it's so cinematic.
Not like the human eye can see more anyway

PokémonTrainerFour got a reaction from timmywity in How overpriced is alienware? Price comparison
I would buy an Alienware desktop, only to rip out the parts and put in my own. Their cases look great (if you like that aesthetic).
But only if I had money to throw away.

PokémonTrainerFour got a reaction from Brainiac777 in Ubisoft Massive Sweden leak on Division downgrade
We need a GIF of Linus digging with the caption

PokémonTrainerFour got a reaction from TheEpicMap in Help me choos a mechanical keyboard
If you like more practical things, Cooler Master and that Ducky have just the things for you.
If you like what Corsair's got, get that.
It always comes down to preference when you have two good brands like this.

PokémonTrainerFour reacted to IdortMasterRace in Ex-Ubisoft employee speaking out about the company.
The forum is too busy running the joke into the ground (deeper than any hole Ubisoft may have made) to even read this.
It was funny a few weeks ago, now it's boring as fuck.

PokémonTrainerFour reacted to Deletive in Anybody need PC building assistance?
Don't limit yourself to 400-600 builds, learn what best for X amount of money and work from there.
After awhile you just know whats best for each amount of money.

PokémonTrainerFour reacted to flibberdipper in Athena V1.0
Obsolete Athena Banner by tmcclelland455 EpicGeekonFire, on Flickr
The time has come, my minions. My build. It's about damn time. Anyway, enough sappiness. Time to tell you the specs. The things that are in red are things that I bought or had previously. Blue are donations. Orange are presents for my birthday or Christmas. You won't get to see me put everything together (already had the motherboard, RAM, and CPU out testing them, and I'll do the same with the PSU), but other than everything being out of their boxes (and the CPU installed), you'll see a full build.
BLUE: Donated
RED: Bought
ORANGE: Birthday/Christmas
PINK: Pending
CPU: Intel Pentium G3258
COOLER: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
RAM: ADATA XPG V1.0 1x8GB (1600MHz, CL9)
MOTHERBOARD: Gigabyte Z97X-Gaming 5
GPUs: XFX "TwinFrozr III" 7950 GHz Edition
STORAGE: 250GB Samsung 840 EVO (OS and basic programs), 1TB Seagate Barracuda (games)
PSU: Corsair CX750M
CASE: Phanteks Enthoo Pro
DISPLAYS: Dell S2340M
PERIPHERALS & OTHER GOODIES: Corsair Raptor M40, Corsair Strafe (Red LED with CMX Reds)
Time for 49 tags...

I was having small problems with tags in the last topic, so I had to make a new one.
UPDATE 1 IS HERE!!! Not at my house, so not a "real" update.
UPDATE 2 IS HERE!!! I got my 212 EVO installed. Potato pics incoming.
UPDATE 3 IS HERE!!! Say goodbye to this hot mess, since my new case is waiting for me.
UPDATE 4 IS HERE!!! It's literally right below this post...
AN UNFORSEEN TURN OF EVENTS!!!

PokémonTrainerFour got a reaction from SparkySamZa in 1 2TB HDD or 2 1TB HDDs in RAID 0?
You don't honestly need a RAID 0 if it's just going to be games, since you have an SSD already.
Get the 2TB.

PokémonTrainerFour reacted to Zeke in OnePlus One Pre-order opens!
"Our phone has a 320*480 6" screen because it's more cinematic"
I'm digging the OpO, but I'm fine with my 5S and don't need another phone atm. So every time I see an opportunity to get an invite or to preorder it I think "Damn, I wish I needed it" D:

PokémonTrainerFour reacted to ShadowCaptain in New build time (This one I can actually afford, haha)
