What is the WORST piece of advice you've ever gotten from the AT Forums?

[venk]

Someone told me that VIA motherboards are quality boards that don't crash and have very stable drivets. I bought a KT133a board.

 

[Deeko]

I've never had a problem with a Via board.

I've gotten plenty of terrible advice here. That's why I don't listen when people here talk, unless its to find something to make fun of them for.

was it me?

i never had issues with any of my Kt133a boards

 

[nageov3t]

someone told me to die in a fire once... I tried it, but it didn't work out very well.

First thing I thought of when I saw the thread title.

I've been told to kill myself a few times. I didn't think that was very good advice.

Ummm, I owned an MSi Turbo mb and it was a great board. Fast and stable. Too bad I accidently killed it.

I know better than to take the ATOT-Collective's advice on anything.

I have, however, gotten good advice from a few individuals here.
