Question by Nodgorod · Oct 16, 2016 at 07:21 AM · unity 5answersqatounanswered

Why could not anyone answer my questions?

I have been posting the same question again and again for over a week, and I have not still got an answer. I bet that most of you, the moderators have seen my post, but you would not bother to provide me with some solutions, at least if you do not know anything related to a specific subject, contact somebody who does. It is a shame that so many good questions in general, and here I am not talking about me specifically, remained unanswered. I bet you once needed help as well when despite of all of your tries, you could not figure out the answer yourselves. You know the feeling, still, it does not seem to concern you.

On the flip side, I can understand that you cannot answer all the questions, it is normal. But all users deserve to have their questions answered promptly, because, after all, you are commited to providing us, your users with what we do not know. Therefore, I highly suggest you make some alterations to your Unity Answers service and stop closing an eye to some of our questions.

This forum is mostly user driven, i don't think i've ever seen anyone from Unity here.

And your questions are mostly about Photon and apparently not many people here (if any) can help with that.

Did you try in the Photon forum?

Actually, there are Unity staff who contribute answers here - you can recognise them by the ♦♦ after their username - http://answers.unity3d.com/users/index.html - but the vast majority of answerers are just regular users like you and me trying to be helpful :)

Ah, I didn't know that. Thanks.

  1. "I have been posting the same question again and again for over a week" -> Please stop doing this. It clutters up the site and makes it less useful for everyone. I've had to close three of your questions this morning that were literally copy and paste identical. If you read the FAQ: What if I don't get a good answer? In order to get good answers, you have to put some effort into the question. Edit your question to provide status and progress updates. Document your own continued efforts to answer your question. This will naturally bump your question and get more people interested in it.

  2. "all users deserve to have their questions answered promptly" I'm sorry? This is a community forum. Answers here get provided by other unity developers - we don't owe you anything. If you have paid for premium support, you should be directing your questions towards your named technical contact, not here. If you are a "Free" user that has not paid for a support package and are demanding help from the community, then you would get more responses if you were more forthco$$anonymous$$g with helping others (your profile shows you have been registered here for over a year, asked 22 questions, but not attempted to answer anyone else's question even once.)

  3. As @doublemax has noted, your question seems very specific to Photon - a third-party asset. I'm not even sure how many Unity devs use Photon now since UNet was integrated (perhaps not that many, based on your experience), but it's understandable that Unity cannot possibly provide much support for a product not made by them. As suggested, try asking Photon rather than Unity.

+1. Very good comment by tanoshimi.

The OP seems to think that every question asked will be able to be answered and it's just that those supposedly responsible for providing answers don't want to help. Well, that's as far from the truth as possible. Without even regarding the fact that this is a user-driven forum with no one getting paid for help, the reason not all question are answered is more often than not simply because no one who knows the solution has seen it. There are thousands of helpful folks around here who help others in their free time, and I consider it very bad manners to post something like this which that kind of self-entitlement.
