beautiful...... what irritates me the most is people asking for whole procedures from scratch without even hitting search button in the forum or even in the google.... i love you expatriate for how you have volunteered yourself to help other members...

Great work Expatriate!

What really amuses me, once somebody has tried to answer a question!

They look for constant reassurance by asking
'ARE YOU SURE CO WILL ACCEPT THIS DOCUMENT? ... and I will be granted the visa!'

This is the golden question, in pursuit of the golden email.

yeah I'd be like. "No I am not sure, I am actually misleading you on purpose" .....

Bonus Commandment

11- Use meaningful subject lines for your posts. "Question" or "Urgent" or "Question about Australian Immigration" will not really get you many responses.

 

[TheExpatriate]

yet another bonus

12- Do NOT crash other people's threads with totally irrelevant questions. Start your own thread.

 

[Waqarali20005]

One more:

Do not name a new thread as "Urgent" or "Need Help" etc. It should be clear and precise and reflect the actual problem or question.

 

[TheExpatriate]

Thou shalt not re-post duplicates

 

[Waqarali20005]

Thou shalt not re-post duplicates

Thou shalt tell me how i can delete my posts!!

 

[TheExpatriate]

13- We are not here to spoon-feed you information. Please do not come to the forum, cross your legs, lay back, and ask for information on the process end-to-end because you cannot be bothered to do some research yourself.

 

[TheExpatriate]

14- Repeating the same question several times after getting an initial answer you did not like will not change the outcome or answer to your question.

Love that

Really winds me up people asking thing in different ways till someone says what they want to hear. How do they know the person saying what they want to hear is right compared to the 10 people who said the opposite!

I hope persons take heed to these commandments, to many flooding unnecessary posts in the forum

Thou shalt not post the same question on multiple threads. Before posting any question thou shalt check if any thread relevant to the question in mind already exists. "Search" function of the forum should be used for the same if the relevant thread doesn't appear on the first few pages of the forum.

 

[paperlover]

Also, try and make your questions specific. Do not ask what the cost of living is like in Australia or what is the job situation. Narrow your questions down as this is a big country with a lot of diversity.

 

[TheExpatriate]

Commandment 16 : Questions that make us doubt your IELTS reading score (or worse, your IQ) are really irritating. Questions like "The CO asked me to do XYZ, should I do XYZ?" ..... or "The question asks if I did bla bla bla. I know I did that, should I answer yes or no" .......


PLEASE FOR GOD'S SAKE !
