How to ask questions

[agridoc]

I was tempted to write this message as a reply but I choosed to open a new topic for reference 

I did some search and found two useful, IMHO, links, either for using or suggesting

How to not look stupid when asking questions

or the more extensive

How To Ask Questions The Smart Way 

[borgBOB]

IMHO very good post.

Agreed - the first link is excellent (an I could have used it a couple of times today!)

Yes, the first link is definatly something we could use here as a "read" this post, the problem always seem to be that no one here, New OR old keep them self updated with what the actual content in the posting guides and rules says.

Truthful now, How many of you guys have opend any of the "guides" "forum rules" the last.. hm lets say Month ?

So if we the staff dont open and read from time to time, how are we going to get the new members to read them?
As long as it is esier and quicker to ask the question directly after you got your registration instead of reading through a alot of texts with rules and posting guides, they will keep up with just start a new thread, ask the same question as 10 or more have befor them in the very same forum in a row.

But i have to say that the first link is great, but get some one to read them is harder

[Crip]

me, never AFAIK

ps. IUKWIM...

I think it's a bit long. I don't think most would take the time to read it. Maybe shorten it up and post it in doc discussion?
