Solve : significance??

Answer»

Why can't some people write significant subjects?

It is timewasting to check all postings if you know something to this problem or not.

I have a question
Please help
problem...

Is it so complicated?
Sorry but it bores me.

uliapparently, they have forgotten to read the "Please read me first" threadThanks. I am particularly fond of that ONE. It seems that titles like "a simple question" or "dos (win98)" or "BATCH files in XP?" attract a far over average number of readers.

If some inexperienced wants to reach many readers then it seems tempting to formulate an ambiguous title.
Of course I agree that it's a waist of time, but teaching the new users appears to be a lost battle.

I suggest that a Forum Moderator should be allowed to change a title as they know best how to categorize the content. Up front it's sometimes hard to know what a topic develops into. Updating the title in order to provide a good summary of the real content as it develops may be useful.

On my wish list is an indicator that shows whether a topic has been satisfyingly answered.
uli_glueck.....

Good idea ...... Now if we COULD get the people whose issues are resolved to let us know ...it would be very EASY for any of the mods to add a final entry ....for example ....... Issue resolved , topic closed and then lock it .

Thats easy to do .

There would be too many titled "Worthless Drivel" or "I Shouldn't Be Allowed To Use A Computer" or "Darwin Was Wrong".
is there anywhere in the forum (maybe i have missed it) that there is a collection of the commonly asked questions and their solutions, eg how to create timers where you could use ping,sleep, etc , or how to copy files with time/date requirements...etc? something like a DOS faq??
It might be good to have one if not, so that forummers with such problems can go there to look first before asking for help...and it saves time from answering to the same type of questions again and again...
just a thought The FAQ SOLUTION Database has a LOT of pertinent info. It is the last section on the main forum page.

I wish people would start there as I frequently have to refer them to existing info, rather than making my fingers bloody reinventing the wheel. Oh, no! My DOS FAQ thread got bumped into the invisible zone! Save them Dilbert. Lock them up on your hard drive!!!It gets better: One or more of the threads in the "invisible zone" have been hit with the Ex Member bug that were in My Favorites. The only way to get my Favorites to work is to delete the offending thread. Unfortunately, I can't see the *censored* thread to remove it. All the ones I've seen are fine (except QA0035... AGAIN...)
