I'm lazy and don't read the manuals unless I need them for putting something together. Who would rather sit and read the manual rather than just turn on their new toy and play?
Anyway, for those of you goody goody, obviously superior manual readers...there's no reason to start cussing people out over a simple question like this. Why is it necessary to rage that badly over a question on a forum? Did it really upset your day to day life? Maybe you have some emotional problems that need to be looked into and/or medicated.
Online it may not seem like a big deal. But imagine if this was real life:
Guy: Hey, I can't seem to find the wrist strap for my 3ds. Can anyone help me?
Guy2: WOW you dumb piece of $%&*!!! YOU ARE SO %$#@ING DUMB FOR NOT READING THE %$R#ING MANUAL, WHAT THE $#@% IS WRONG WITH YOU, %$@#^@^!!!
Either you're seriously disturbed, a raging 14 yr. old boy testing his new found discovery of anonymity on the internet, or a pmsing teenage girl.
None of these are good looks for anyone. Stop being so angry. At this point it doesn't matter who was right, wrong, or who was an idiot for asking a 'dumb' question. Just chill out and take it easy.
