JayC said:Sometimes I wonder if anyone ever uses the Search function over there. The HST Vs. Gear threads are like a moron that you don't like and yet they still insist on bugging you. If the people that start those threads would just search for it, they would find enough info to make their eyes bleed.

gsxr1100, because of your posts I learned thet value of synthetic. I know I could've used the search function, but hey, you don't get post count that way. It's more fun to talk to someone about it than to read old threads which don't ask the exact same quesiton.

JayC said:I love it when he does that! If I recognize an old thread that pops up again, I know it is him.
I doubt it...Mark777 said:He goes by LB59...must be a coincidence???

Junkman said:It is my impression that the management of TBN doesn't want people to use the search feature, but rather that they keep repeating the same information. This keeps the post count up and the $$$$ coming in.
rico304 said:I use the search function, and I also ask questions. I think Junk said it as well, you miss out on information from new people. Even if the topic is the same, the answers can change. I for one agree to repost questions. I have said it before, that is how most everyone here met....by asking questions on TBN and another member here answered them. What seems old hat to you is not to another. Nothing wrong with asking again.
If we all used search function without posting questions, ALL websites that have been around for a while would be only that...search engines. It is the active forums that make it fun to go to. How many of you would be STILL looking at TBN if every repeat question was only searched instead of asked again? There aren't that many questions posted that we couldn't search and find.
I'm sure after ForumsForums has been here for a couple years, you would be able to search EVERYTHING/ANYTHING and find the answer. Many friendships would be lost, or have never been made.
