SEARCH BEFORE YOU POST (Instructions Inside)
Due to the increasing high volume of repeat posts in the 5th Gen forum, we are asking that you search before you post up a question. Since the regular vBulletin search method is not reliable, we are providing a link for you to use.
http://search.yahoo.com/web/advanced...r=fp-tab-web-t
Type in what you are looking for in the top box on that page, and your results will be shown in links. I know that it is not as pretty as the vBulletin way, but it works.
This should help keep the number of repeat posts down to a reasonable level.

****ATTENTION****
Repeat threads = 2 week ban
(especially if it was a recent thread)
There are simply way too many repeat threads, especially when you can google search or read FAQs. Please do yourself (and everyone else) a favor by REALLY searching hard. This should cut down the clutter here in the 5th gen forum, and make future searches easier by narrowing the crap people have to search through. Also, Should anyone have any questions that you cant find the answers to via search, please PM someone before starting a thread.
Thanks
