I think we are all used to see this kind of sticky, but no one reads them anyway. And we can't help you quickly if you don't give us proper information. I am used to see this :

Hi, it doesn't work. When I try to launch, it just doesn't work, please help


Very helpful right ? So don't post something like that. Instead :

When one post a problem on the forum, at least inform about your hardware and software as much as you can. We can not guess what you're trying to do if we don't know on what you're doing it. For this reason, you must, when you create new topics write this infomation :

- Name of the Distribution (And it's version)
- Name of the software and it's version (Ex: Wine 0.9.37)
- Your desktop (KDE,Gnome,Xfce,Fluxbox...)
- Errors from the software. And if possible, tell when or/and when it happens.
- Your computer configuration.

Please note that it is more pleasant when us (moderators and admins) and the other members wanting to help you, can read a readable post. I explain :

A hello and a thank you never killed anyone (None that I know of anyway). And it's better than reading something like that :

It doesn't work, I've got this error


Such a notation in a topic, personally that does not give me desire for answering. (Although good as I am, I will do it all the same) a clearer message is more pleasant and more respectful towards the other people who will want to help you :

Hello,
Here after trying out a test of script, I obtain an error like that unfortunately :
.....
….

Thank you in advance for your assistance


Obviously, it misses as I quoted higher, information necessary but here the example was especially to show you the syntax of courtesy towards the other people.

I hope it helped you understand how to write clear messages. What ? You read everyhting ? Impressive
