I think we should do like some other boards do and have a stickied post that new members MUST read before the board will allow them to actually make any posts. That way, they would all know the rules and would know exactly where the SEARCH feature (most important) is located and how to use it.

hmmmmmmm so this is in the Speed section why?

we've also had 2 members try to do threads that explained little stuff, and linked the search feature, and neither thread worked. Why? It doesn't work because apparently using the search is too much work for some people. Alot of times they want the answers to their questions and they want them fast, they don't like to do their own research. We've had a few members who have disappeared (with no tears shed might I add) who absolutely refused to search, and always wanted everything spoon fed to them, even if a link was provided to the answer they wanted (such as asking what sponsors a team has, a link is provided to said teams sponsor page, and they still ask who sponsors them in the next post....how many people think if you ask who sponsors Dynasty and you're provided with a link to the page where Dynasty lists their sponsors you'd be able to figure out who their sponsors are, and what gear they're using?)

Anyways.....back to the topic at hand....

The Search being at the top of the main page still doesn't seem to affect people. There will always be people who just want to be spoon fed, we'll never get over that.


I'll even be nice and I'll put this thread in the Suggestions/Feedback forum instead of Chat or something.
