How bout an F.A.Q's section?
« on: 20 September 2006, 09:56 »
Been reading through a lot of the same threads recently and its really starting to get on my titties. God knows how many times people have asked about the difference between an 8 and a 16 valve. God knows how many mk2 vs mk3 threads there have been. And I think even God has lost count of how many times we have had pannel filter/induction kit questions. This is discounting of course the tyre size/wheel size/lowering amount/arch work questions.

I know there are threads stickied up regularly and these are very helpful, once you have looked through them all, and there is a search feature which never ever seems to be used, but I just thought a frequently asked questions page with some advice and opinions would be an obvious place for people to look before they ask the same things.

Sorry, rant over, what do you all think?

Phil, it doesn't have to be Admin or a mod that sets up an FAQ thread so why not have a go yourself ? You could do a thread with different mk headings and then copy and paste from other people that have given the questions and answers, keep it as an updated thread and maybe ask jv to give only you access to that thread so noone can spam it.

You could take it further and ask people to PM you if they have had good advice and on which thread and then update your FAQ.

As already said, people may not read them, but at least it gives Slick something else to be mardy about ! :laugh:
