GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

I sometimes see a post on GenVibe that goes along these lines....I have this problem with my new Vibe... (Description of problem here).Can you help me? Please e-mail to me at mymail@company.com.Vibermymail@company.comPLEASE send e-mail. HEY! Please DON'T reply to these by e-mail, or if you do, post your answer(s) here as well. This site and it's fora (that is the correct plural of "forum") are a great resource for all Vibe owners. We're here to help solve your problem, but we NEED that answer to be here on the board and be searchable for the person 6 months from now who has the same problem and would like to avail themselves of the volumes of wisdom and experience that is posted here. (Sorry, but I consider it sort of selfish for you to ask that we e-mail your answer to you. Wassa matta? Too much trouble to check the board once in a while?)Sorry. Rant mode off now.

Good call, but same goes for IM as well I guess. I have gotten many an answer via IM'ing someone, which is also not searchable. Hard to say how someone can go about giving/receiving information, but is a lot more helpful to the group as a whole if it is posted where everyone can see it.

sounds a bit like a spam ploy to me...I always post here and ignore direct e-mails for the most part. If you have a private message for me thats fine thats what the IM part of the site is for.
