Find Ancestors

I sometimes feel like screaming at the computer monitor

;-)

Sappho, the daft thing is that some time ago (for a short while) there was a similar pop-up appeared when you started to post a new thread but it didn't seem to last long.

Glitterbaby, this is brilliant and needs to appear everytime someone hits the button to make a request/add a thread or topic. I think it should be an automatic header.

Now there's a thought and challenge for Genes. If it appeared at the very beginning of adding a thread, then so much time would be saved. It would stop the thread-bearer wasting time!

If the members do not read the T & C's or message board guidelines then I suppose they will not read any of the many helpful threads on the boards

:-)

:-D

I sometimes wonder why the helpers go to such great lengths to help other members with their research when they are not including what they know.

For example : didn't think i needed the marriage details

That one bit of information was vital to help find the person but for some strange reason the poster with held that useful piece of knowledge.

:-(

and PLEASE PLEASE do not get angry at and / or rude towards the helpers for asking questions!

Sorry guys but got to nudge this one up again

Fed up with helpers having to keep asking questions and then find out that the poster had a lot more info they should have included in their request.

I agree so much with this cause i have done it myself.... sometimes i think its cause it is late at night and my brain has gone mushy..... i will promise to improve .... have a great day guys
:-D

:-D

Please, please buy the certs. Yes I know it works out expensive but you need them.

It makes sure you are following the right family and also confirms information that the helpers post.

:-D

And please don't post another thread and tell other people that the information you have been given on your first thread, is NOT connected to the latest thread you have put on.
And it's for the same ancestor you are looking for.

:-S

;-)

and so do I ........... agree, I mean :-D

I agree.
Too many requests asking for help but the user does not give all the info that they have.
This leads to roughly two pages of GR input before anyone can get to the bones of the original question.

Getting a bit fed up with the requests that start "looking for any information" and give very little information to help with the request.

How have you arrived at the names or date etc?

Surely you have not pulled the names out of a hat !!!!!!

Give us the basic information please so that we do not have to keep asking questions. Stay online so you can answer the questions.

:-)

:-D :-D :-D

:-D

As my crystal ball is not working tonight with some of the requests that have obviously not been thought thru before posting.
