How do we facilitate the habit of using search feature?
Hi all,
I am actually spending 60% of time in merging threads and asking people to use search feature. its really getting time consuming and actually sometime is quite irritating. I have seen our HFv members are also repeatedly telling people to search but people just dont care!
Can we infract members who starts new topics (without searching) which has been discussed if they dont have a good reason for starting a new thread?
Infraction will be given:
1. If the new topic is already discussed
2. There is a no valid reason for having another topic with the same title
Will not be given:
1. If there is a valid reason. This needs to specific in the first thread so that we know why this thread was started
2. If the thread was started bcos a relevant thread was too old
what do you guys think?
Any other ideas?
Update: Have changed the title to a more open on so we can discuss what we can do to facilitate/enforce using search key?
