#701, "RE: 2GNT.com | Steering Committee?" In response to In response to 3
I personally think one thing we need to do is stop immediately jumping on new people who ask questions without searching, and new vendors who ask what the interest would be in a certain new product. Both of these are bad for us. If new vendors recieve that kind of treatment anytime they ask if a new product would be wanted by the community, then we will never pick up new vendors(example: Supercharger thread) Same goes for ripping on new members that don't search. If we just politely say "You should probably search this and other questions before asking them" instead of ripping them apart, we could probably hold on to and attract new members much better. I know that was the impression I got when I first joined this site and asked some stupid question without searching at all. Nobody wants to join a community just to be belittled. Thats just my 2 cents though.
