...in forums?

Not having a moan, but it's just occurred to me that the same subjects are coming up in various areas of the forums in new threads day in day out.

For example the 'i'm a single guy who's been here five minutes' whine.

Having used forums elsewhere I am a little surprised that there doesn't appear to be a forum rules (or guidelines) sticky including recommendation to search for your question before posting.

Just a thought. What does everyone else think?

Oh hang on, maybe I should search to see if this has been asked before

Sometimes new input turns up on an already asked question. Some people like answers personalised for them and not generic answers. Not everyone uses lots of online forums and knows how they work

And sometimes people just want to have a chat.

Or just a plain old "look at me"

Searching requires the OP to have got the spelling right.
