I was there once. Asking questions, when the "search" key was right there staring me in the face the whole time. I then got a lot of flack and links to the search feature. But I repented and use the search key every time before asking a question.
Is there anyway to have a screen come up that says, "Have you tried the search function before posting this new topic?" Yes, add new topic. No, a direct refresh to the search function.
Sure people can say, hi, welcome to CEG and the like, but all of these new people that are chased off, it gives this board a bad name.
FWIW, I did search this topic also.
