Expert advice shuts your brain down ...

[jono-ats]

Here's an interesting study conducted by a professor from my alma mater:

Although the topic was financial advice, it stands to reason that it might apply to hard drive repair advice as well.

Good finding. It's funny but may be true

I think HERE things go like this :

NEWBIES AND BEGGERS SEEKING FOR ADVICE SHUT EXPERT'S BRAIN DOWN

[falther]

Most probably related to accept someone as an expert.

Perhaps Dmitry should accept new members reading the forum only for a specific
period. Then the new members could recognise the pros here and - if still in need
of an advice after that period - will accept their statements / advice ....

At least it would work as a filter.

If the information at registering to this forum would be read, a lot of questions
would not be asked. Perhaps some days waiting are enough - and again after
informing the new members about this - they should be transferred to the posts
with basic information.
