The problem, imo, is not the format but
rather that too many are willing to provide answers to elementary questions
over and over again instead of simply directing the person to the Users Guide or
UKB or past messages (use Yahoo search). The individual is responsible for
extracting the information needed from the available documentation/messages and
only resort to this forum when they hit a wall. Instead, many of the new
users use this forum in lieu of doing their homework. If they were
forced to find the answers, I suspect the number of messages would drop by
at least 50% and more interesting discussions would take
place.

IMO, this is the main problem with our format. First thing I asked on
this forum was about Plot Shapes. Just couldn't wait to get started or read
anything. Since that time, I bet similar plot questions have come around
100 times. It is very hard and time consuming to search this list. If we
had a forum/board format where all threads relating to plot were in a certain
section, I think it would help people study more and get frustrated less. This
has been discussed before and I know most people want emails and don't want to
browse a board, but there is a lot of redundancy on this list.
