I see it something like this . . .
The Question:
Is the question asking for solutions, or is the question asking for spam :-) that has to be one of the problems.
If the question asks outright "What Program do I use to convert GPT to MBR" Every marketeer with a program to sell comes in and drops in thier program, then we kick them out for being spam.
If the Questioner asks "How Do I convert GPT to MBR" It is pretty much the same question, skirts the rules of begging directally for a program, in this case it could generate the same results.
If the question is "How to convert GPT to MBR WITH . . . some program" Then there is no list of recomended programs, only proper instruction to use whatever program it is both parties will be referring to. No skirting, and any program listing is going to be, "You would be better off with...", or "it is easier or cheaper with. . .", even though the answer should (somewhere) be specific to the program specified.
if there is a 4 , it goes here :-)
IMO The whole things is rediculous the rules for not recomending programsallowing program recs, because you cant do SPIT without programs , the whole OS is full of them, and they are rarely the best choise. There exists 5000+ other forums and Q&A where you can legitimatly ask how to do something, without going to a different site.
It may reduce some spam, but why should people have to go anywhere to get simple computer answers?
(I could go on about that , but it would do no good).
I think the important part is not the question that people found using a search engine, but the answers themselves.
The Answers:
This (arbitrary) program . (ppphhht thanks jerk, real helpful)
With this (arbitrary) program you would , select the disk you are intending to convert, in the activity menu you select Convert GPT -> MBR (yea ok, I can tell you have done this before, you expert!)
When I converted partitions From GPT to MBR before, I used this (arbitrary) program , and everything worked out good.
First You should always Back-Up any disk prior to converting it.
Even backup all your disks in case you make the misteaks my brother did.
A MBR partition will only be 2Gig in size, so if your disk or array is larger then . . . .
BLA bla Bla bla bla bla
20 pages later . . . in the activity menu you select Convert GPT -> MBR
This process takes a lot of time . . . . Bla bla bla
IMO it is the user experience, the full and complete answer from someone (anyone) who has done it, who knows the ins & outs , the flaws the fails, and the problems.
While that can be be spammed in (creative spam) the marketeers stand out like a sore thumb, and never mention all the possible problems.
As far as things becomming Obsolete?? What manner of rediculousness thinks that is an issue with computers is is ALL going obsolete all the time.
Uhh something like that, I am sure this needs edting.
