Forum Posting Etiquette: A Flash Video Tutorial

In summary, the flash video talks about how to post in a forum so that you don't get rejected and your thread is more popular. The video is funny and even though most of the people here are good posters, I decided to contribute.

That's because you didn't read the sticky ... but that's understandable. Since you posted it in the ergonomic kinematics forum, and the sticky was in the technology and development forum, you probably missed it.
