New Thread

[CruisingAZ]

Do we have to start a new thread for every question? You guys are killing me!

[SmartCard]

Like you just did??

Yes there is some redundancy in the forum (true of most forums), but I guess its better to ask the question then to never ask at all!

Mine was sarcasim. I have used other forums but it surprises me how many new threads are started everyday in this one. It really makes it hard to follow a topic when you have to go to a dozen threads on the same subject to get all the information instead of just one thread.

I keep it straight by using the "New Posts" button at the top, on the right side. I'll click on it once every 2 or 3 days and it provides every thread that has received a new post since my last visit. It saves a lot of time. I can read the whole thread or click on the arrow next to the person who posts' screen name and it brings me to the end of the thread. Its a convenient way to get the latest posts.

Same here.

I agree 100% with you, but you could still read less total threads IF people would post in already open threads. It is not a real big deal, but how many threads do we need of transmissions or videos or any other SINGLE subject matter?

We need more threads on having a yellow car. We only have about a dozen now. We could do for 20 more on that subject alone!

I agree

There's supposed to be an FAQ section at some point which should take care of most of the redundant posts (I hope!)

I do what Pauly does as far as viewing new posts, but what we really need are moderators that have the capability to reposition errant posts and threads. I'm sure this will happen in the future.
