A recent thread related to installing a hard drive in a DB 7025 was closed because the original poster made the mistake of mentioning 7025c instead of 7025. As anyone knows, the installation of a HD in a 7025 has nothing to do with the nature of its tuner(s) and I find hard to believe the question was kicked out on the ground that the 7025c in not intended for satellite use.
Although probably technically right, this decision goes a long way into saying how friendly this forum is for naive users asking a bona fide question. I believe we should strive on helping others using the same hardware we are using and unless they use it as door steps, or for an openly illegal purpose, we should let them ask questions and get help, even if they technically do not phrase their question the way some cybercop wants them to.
Sorry, but I had to vent my frustration. I am just trying to help others when and if I can, and to learn from others.
