Getting Support
Posted: 07 Jul 2020 18:15
Due to the number of people PM'ing me asking for support and subsequently sulking or getting annoyed after I ask them to post on the forum I've disabled the ability for users to PM me. Only moderators and Admins can do that now.
I will absolutely help anyone who puts a description of their issue on the forum. I have to say though that guys like @alenppc, @8 Bit Dreams, @supaduper and @go0se have collectively built thousands of my boards and know more about the issues seen with them during builds than I ever will know. I typically build one example of every revision unless there is an issue. It surprises people but I really dont build my boards. I'd get @supaduper to build the prototypes for me if it wasnt a three day round trip in the post.
So these guys are going to be waaaay more helpful than me. I can probably tell you which pins to go look at but they've seen 99% of all issues with my boards. And if they're not able to help i want a record of it to help the next guy.
And if you dont want to live by those rules then you are on your own.
