Radfax Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Hey lads, I have been looking in new members chat trying to find a decent topic to reply to but I have had no luck, this is because all the questions seem to be rather silly to be honest and I see no point in replying to them. They all seem to be along the lines of what should I get A or B? Why isnt so and so working on my bike? what can i do to get this to work better? So I thought starting a "questions thread" would keep alot of the pointless threads down. This technique is used in the chit chat topic and it seems to be working rather well, and by the looks of it is used on a regular basis so hopefully this thread will follow.So hopefully this topic will keep alot of the unneeded threads out of new members chat and make life easier for alot of us, and please feel free to ask our help (as long as it is relevent, nothing stupid please).Hope this is of some good, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radfax Posted April 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Wow thanks for the replys lads. What about the Random Small Questions sticky at the top of the page?I thought that I would start a more bike specific topic which was for the questions which required a quick answer or a question which is very commonly asked like the recent topic made by "jackbalman" about what forks he should buy. So once the question is asked once then the question will no longer have to be re-posted over and over again which seems to be the case. But if this topic is no good then fair enough but i was hoping that a few common questions would be asked which could then be used as referance for other new mebers which would prefent the questions being asked over and over again. Thanks for your time, Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
