which questions do you find irritating and pointless

[mrs.oroblanco]

I've had many of the same, but, this past year someone hit the #1 spot, with:

Wow, what a cool find. It's real silver? Can I have it?

No, not from a kid - from a full grown man.

I actually really enjoy helping people.

But I only enjoy it when they've proven they've at least made some kind of effort in finding the answer to simple questions on their own. Every other day somebody asks about what kind of headphones to get. All they have to do is go look at old posts to get ALL of the information they are seeking. AND, maybe this site wouldn't be nearly as slow as it is at times if there weren't 1000 threads on headphones with 20 posts each all saying the same thing.

Unless it has changed, non charter members can't use the search function to search for key words so they would have to search multiple boards for the same question, not everyone thinks of this, they don't see it on one board so they ask question......A great feature, advantage, and reason (besides supporting TN) to being a Charter Member is the search function.

On another note, if everyone could search key words, it would slow the website down a lot more than just another question asking if "blah, blah, blah is good"...

Google is a person's friend. If they were able to find the site, they should be able to do a simple google search. Just go to Google and type in:

site:forum.treasurenet.com andthenwhateveryouwanttosearchfor

That will be bring up posts on the topic they are curious about. Pretty simple.

Them: "What are you looking for?"

Me: "I have no idea. When I find it, I'll know."

Them: What are you looking for?

Me: There was a stabbing here last night. I'm looking for the murder weapon.
