There seem to be a lot of newbies asking questions that are already answered
in these forums, so here's two tips for you:
(1) Make sure that "Show all topics" is selected at the top-right of your
browser, so that you don't miss any relevant posts.
(2) Use the "Search" function (also at top-right) and enter the key words
of your question as the criteria.
Good luck!

I suggest, in other point, some space that includes ONLY source code, fully functional source code, with no answers, etc. Just the code and the comments inside the code.
This will very usefull.
Think that PurBasic are a Basic-like language, and every dialect has its own syntaxis (i don't know why don't try to be more similar) and this makes harder to learn the own syntaxis of PureBasic.
Maybe if some code only in PureBasic and do it frequently, has memorized all this stuff, but if some of us mix sessions betwen PureBasic and another ones, its hard to remember exactly how should we do something here, not because we are begginers in programming, just in PureBasic.
Its very different the code to download a web page (per example) in Rapid-Q, in PowerBasic and in PureBasic, and all are BASIC.
Source code section will be an good idea, i think.
Yeap, absolutely agree.although your tips are good,
some of the questions are
discussed, but never
truly resolved;
therefore
we can
spend hours
reading dead-end
topics
