I also think that no matter how many neatly-set up threads a board may have, there will also be lots of excited newbies with the same old questions. Let whichever experienced boardmember who happens to be feeling fresh that day answer the question politely and direct the poster to appropriate thread(s). If it's not your day/week/month/year/decade to be feeling fresh, take a pass.  IMO. |
I agree on both points! I love it when the OP prefaces her comments with, "I wanted to give Cherry Garcia another chance since last round I was so distracted by the chanting." or some other comment that reminds me of her previous opinion of that group. This saves me from going back - which I rarely do unless I am really really curious.
Also, I appreciate the "elder statesmen" on here (not by age, but by GC experience and Greeklife experience!) who tirelessly and patiently repeat information and point newbies in the right direction with links to helpful stickies and threads. It seems the best display of panhellenic spirit, IMO.
