Whilst I'm aware people of all technical abilities come here, questions like http://superuser.com/questions/736302/i-need-help-interconnect-the-three-computers-in-one-lan are just a joke - they could easily research this themselves!

Does this count as off topic as it's not defined in the scope... etc?

Or should I put in a reason "this is off topic because the OP is too lazy to do his own research" (obviously worded more diplomatically)

Or, is it still on topic?
