Some people are just lazy to search or even see our wiki that's all, so I think this is not necessary at all...

Since rA ipb already have plugin like topic title auto search. What can we do next is to write a long FAQ in every different section. Client Support > [sticky] Client FAQ.

Don't get me wrong. I mean there is no more way to extend/promote the search function already. Everyone knows there's a [search] they (not us) just don't want to use it.

This idea has been on my mind for quite a long time, and I decided that it's not practical. Hence the FAQ thread will be flooded with more questions, because it's always one problem that leads to another or more problems for most of our users. And most of these users cannot really identify or specify what problem they're having. I'm pretty much neutral about the idea, I don't think a FAQ thread will be a problem, it won't be a great help either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
