If You Want Help, We Need Information

I love posts that are short and to the point, but only if they give enough information to actually allow people to help them.

Case in point, one clever and helpful poster left us this post, with the title of “No Earning with my Adsenae Account” we get asked “I noticed that for over a year now, I have not earn a dime from my Adsense account why?”

My immediate thought was that given his grasp of proper spelling and accurate and informative analytical skills, he should easily be able to figure out the problem for himself, which is what I presume he went on to do since he left us with no URL to view or details about why it took him a year to ask in the first place, since most people whine after their first click if it’s not paid.

Then we have the next poor soul who asks “i had my ads running actively yesterday,but why is it gone today?it shows no available data again.can anyone help?” and he will probably be raging mad when he gets the very accurate reply of “How are we going to help you? No URL, no info except the little you posted, and that don’t say anything that we can use for trouble shooting.”

These are people that, if not disabled if they ever do reach payout (which in the case of the first poster will be centuries), don’t really belong in the AdSense program. If it takes somebody a year to react, well, they just aren’t paying attention. I bet they vote for Ralph Nader.
