Righteous words there, Justice. Keep on being awesome :)

I fail to see how this guide is even remotely useful. Voting in this site is probably the simplest thing you'll ever need to do in your entire life. If you like the guide you vote up, if you dislike it you vote down. It's incredibly simple, if someone needs and entire guide to understand this process then he/she should not even be able to go cross the road without getting ran over by a bus.

I recieved numerous PMs about how voting works, so I made a guide. I find it weird that you wouldn't realise the incredibly simple idea behind this guide o.O

Haha.

I'm guilty being the "Upvote guy". I sometimes browse guides on a lonely night, going on an upvoting spree.

Me gusta.

Canoas, please stop harassing this guide. I made it for the fun of it, just like I made the Frequently Asked Questions wiki article. Are you going to bash on the FAQ wiki too? Go bother someone else.

The FAQ in the wiki is in the right place, this is not. The wiki, like the support forum, is a good place for a FAQ. I find it funny how you call a negative response "harassment". If I was wrong you'd say why I'm wrong and why this topic is not utterly useless when we have a FAQ in the support forum, instead you try to dismiss my criticism of a guide as harassment.. funny.


I mean, if you make a guide for the "Support" section then what's stopping you from making a guide for the "Build & Guide Discussion" or "Signatures & Art" forums as well?

I wrote this guide either directly before, or directly after my Guide to Making a Guide, which (as you may or may not know) is a guide about making a guide. Seems redundant, does it not? And yet, many people found it useful. As explained earlier, I made this because people kept on PM'ing me about Troll Votes and I found the threads that explained them were outdated/dry and boring. So I made my own.

You claim that the FAQ thread in the forums is the place people are directed to. In my experience here, and I've been here for a while now, people ask questions before they look for them. In response to those questions I made my own sort of guide. It is a conglomeration of several threads in addition to my own thoughts and ideas.

I have contemplated moving this to the wiki (as the wiki did not exist when I made this), but I am uncertain whether the content is "neutral" enough for a wiki - which it is not.

For all intents and purposes, this guide full-fills the expectations of the reader. Voting is explained, alongside other important factors related to guides, such as featured content and the freshness filter.

If this sort of guide is not your cup of tea, please be gone. Leave your downvote and your opinion, I've already given you my opinion, please respect it. Thank you.

And to answer your question, yes. I already have. Seeing as I created the FAQ wiki, I compiled the rules etc from those forums and incorporated them into the FAQ wiki article. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I may direct you to the FAQ wiki I wrote. Or maybe I'll even make a guide about your next question.
