This forum is the largest automotive forum in the country - you can't expect it to be filled only with gearheads. I could imagine a first-time car buyer who knows absolutely nothing about cars and doesn't have much of an education to stumble upon this forum and sign up as a member.

There are certain people who are so clueless about cars that they don't know where to look, or what to look for. There are also people who don't instinctively Google things, because they aren't very adept at maximizing the internet either.

These people find this forum a blessing as it is filled with real Pinoys whom they can easily interact with, as opposed to an international forum where they'll have to muster some broken english sentence and probably not understand the reply of others. Tsikot can easily be thought of as the go-to place for these people to answer any car-related question they might have.

Not everyone here is a car genius, or a genius at anything at all. I didn't know that we're moving to close Tsikot from these people with limited knowledge. I always thought it was a forum where the learned can fill up the empty cups of others, however clueless they may be.

This is true but here's the thing, Google is far more popular to most people, the mere fact that they were able to find tsikot would mean that they used Google or some other search engine.

And in what manner did you do it? There's more to that story that's why you got reprimanded.

Are you going to suggest that we shut down the technical aspect of this forum? Because it will only waste you precious time answering the morons asking question that can be googled anyway?

O wait questions about love, romance, depression, etc... can all be googled. F*ck this forum is doomed.

Change "librarian" to "tsikot.com" (or your favorite forum) and you get the drift......

You are overreacting and misunderstanding the request and intention. What's with the hostility? Kindly read again the post. There are topics that can be answered by simply doing a search, if the search results do not answer your question then ask away. Obviously certain topics cannot be googled, like where to buy parts, which shop has the best service, who gives the better deal. Common sense, really. This request is the same reason as to why others are being asked to "backread" posts, so as not to have the same questions and answers being repeated over and over.
