red ketchup
i just wanted to acknowledge a few gurus who have been especially helpful to me on this forum:
GABS - all things education/schooling :notworthy:
Arniegang - Mr Real Estate :notworthy:
dxbsoul - got a legal issue? :notworthy:
Liban - all round dubai experience :notworthy:
sorry if i have forgotten anyone.
got loads more "what happens when...." and "can anyone advise on...." questions up my sleeve, so you'll all get a turn. :lol: :lol:
arniegang
thank you - its nice to be acknowledged and appreciated.
good luck to you.
dbxsoul
thanks as well, nice to know we are appreciated....
makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :lol:
now the only thing the forum needs is a bright yellow banner that says "use the search function first" :D

Dont laugh dbxsoul.
About the banner it's true
Most people asking questions on here have never used a forum before, and then regular posters get annoyed and say use the Search function.
Rightly so - but it can be off-putting for those that don't know how to navigate a forum
dbxsoul
point taken, although it does become a little disheartening, if you spend 1/2 hour drafting a good reply to a query and then a week later someone asks exactly the same question :?
scarlet
Oh I am saying please put a banner up or make the search button more prominant. I am relatively new to this forum and on my first few visits I didn't see it as the google search button is more prominent than the forums search
dbxsoul
Any of the moderators know if this can be done???
I have a sneaking suspicion though, that this is a “template”-type forum so customizations can’t be done???
Anyone know?
arniegang
Actually Scarlett you have a point. I will speak to other Mods and Andy at Admin.
But in fairness to Dxbsoul i can only echo his point that a lot of us do have and give time to help people out, but the same questions come up time and time again, it can sometimes get tedious answering the same questions.
arniegang
ok Sorted
After speaking with Admin, the Search has been put in bold and if you notice under Google search we have added another option to google on Dubai forums or the Web.
Hows that for Service ?
dbxsoul
damn! what good service!
arnie do you work for etisalat or dewa? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Definitely you were a great help to us! Some of your posts should be in FAQ's or some such sticky or link somewhere.
Nice post red ketchup. :D
