JimH & Co,

What do you think about having a sticky just underneath the lastest MJ build? The beauty of it is it would stay more up to date than your FAQ. In it could be solutions such as this one by Plas. It could just be a normal post that is a "second order" sticky. Since the King is the moderator, if he wanted, he could maintain it (or I could as one of my personal posts). Other folks could make suggestions for additions/deletions/corrections. Most people look here first (as you know) and disregard the FAQ. It could be a time saver for all.

I agree we need to do something.  Let me think a few days.  I'm not sure whether a sticky thread or a new board or both would be best.  Any opinions from others?

[RemyJ]

How about both?  A new FAQ board plus a sticky at the top of the other boards with the title '>>>PROBLEMS? READ ME FIRST<<<' with links to the most FAQ's along with common troubleshooting steps and maybe a list of information required before a touble post (System Info, Sound Card, CD Model, etc.)

I think you could also enlist the help of the community to create and maintain FAQs that aren't already up on the web site.   I'd be glad to create and maintain one for the Media Server or general network connectivity, for instance.

My suggestion - Create a FAQ board which everyone can post to and a sticky post at the top of this one that only the moderators can add.

They take questions and answers from that board and post them to the sticky thread.

That way it doesn't get overly bloated and impossible to follow but has all the info that people want answers to.
