Is there a possibility of this Option ?

You have to READ the FIRST Post and then you can post something inside the Thread like:

- Homebrew released etc.etc.
- Links for Explanations / Manuals etc.etc.

After reading and following the Links and Explanations - then you can post in this Thread.

Why ?

For Example:
99 % of today´s AROMA Thread
https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-aroma-environment-for-wii-u.618474/

consists of "Why is this not working" and 312 Answers...
Everything is explained in the FIRST POST.

Such Threads should be free for Feedback and not for "senseless" and already explained Questions...


Thank you.😉

Oh, you mean the feature OP(s) has to create Important Posts within owned threads?

Interesting idea for sure @Alexander1970.. Though i'd think a FAQ tab in the initial post, or a sticky comment warning people not to ask questions about things that are already answered in the FAQ, could work too..

Nice idea, but none of that will work. Most people who ask those questions never read posts OR FAQs. They have a problem? They ask. And if there was a requirement to read the first post before being able to write, they would just scroll right past all of it and click confirm.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz

    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
