HOW TO SEARCH!

So, there have been tons of retarded threads that all have been covered over the tides of time, but seems like you chumps can’t search. My gift to you, Grasshopper, how to search and correctly find your answer. The internet is full of BS, and golden information, sifting thru the information is something you should have learned in High School.

First and foremost, have you searched before? Do you know what to look for? Are there any other names the part in question has gone by?

If you've got the FSM, more power to you. Flip thru the right sections, and find the specific part name.

It’s 2007, IE is dead, long live Firefox!







Now, lets start by clicking the awesome Search Button that Zilvia offers.







Type out what you’re looking for, in this case, we’ll use White Bunny Special.







[*]One really helpful tip, instead of using a space, use a hyphen. Zilvia Search Engine doesn't like hyphens, but a vast majority of other ones do. The search engine will look for the said term as a whole, White-Bunny-Special, rather than individual terms; White, Bunny, and Special.

Hit that magic button, or hit enter, and prepare to be AMAZED!







The top 3 things you should make note of when searching are pointed out.
1) Thread Name (Does the thread name ask the same question you just searched for?

2) Was it a popular enough thread? (Note, most high post count threads are just filled with valuable information. Emphasis on MOST)

3) Where is the thread located? (Most important threads have been, or are in the process of being moved to our Archives, where they live on FOREVER!)

Make sure you’re opening the threads in a New Tab, as to not lose the Search page.




Find what you’re looking for? Great. Didn’t find what you’re looking for? Boohoo, next step.

Once you’ve searched for those terms to no avail, proceed to Google.com, or any of your other favorite search engines.

Exact same thing, hyphen > space bar.




Can’t find it, reword it, or add other keyterms, in this case, White Bunny Special was mentioned to be a clutch setup, so lets use ‘Clutch.’

With that new term, come new information. Remember, save the better informative websites in New Tabs, so you don’t lose your valuable information.

Do NOT settle for a single search page, read into the information as you come along, doubling checking with other sites you’ve got opened in other tabs to check for correct information, instead of crapshoot hearsay.

Perfect,
I feel so dumb that I thought that was a strain of extasy

I vote that this should be moved into a new "Newbs" section, where newbs have to go for the first like 15 minutes of being on Zilvia.

Or even better, when someone asks a stupid question, send them to reeducation camp for 15 minutes!

This would be very useful for them.

Its a beginner's thread. Sorry.

I was going to really go indepth with searching, and backwards information cross referencing but it made my head weird.

By backwards info X ref, i mean after you find your 'answer', going back and searching with the answer to see if any similar results come up strengthening the fact.

mr_240sx

but why would we only send them for 15 mins? lol


it should be a place they go kinda like pinking. this would help out the forum for sure if al lthey could do when they are new is search for the first X amount of days/hours.

This should be required reading.
It'd look a hell of a lot better were it not done in MSPaint, but not everyone has photoshop.
