But maybe people would like to renew some of the FAQs completely. After
all, it was always something which the membership of this group
contributed to and was a way of making their experience more permanent
while avoiding unnecessary repetition of the same questions time after
time.


It never worked, though ;-) We were still besieged by people wanting us
to sit down and pen instant answers because they were unwilling to do
an elementary search.


I think it's fair then to point them at the FAQs and suggest they come
back if they don't find an answer there. *Quite apart from anything
else, looking at the FAQs, they may well find info on other things they
want to know about!

That's fair but you do get some posters, (remember whom???) who very
rudely and abruptly would answer and tell them to go there, it put a
lot of new posters off from posting as we know. Since certain people
left who did this, some of these old/new posters have returned. So I
would say to refer them to the FAQs but not in a nasty way as we have
seen here some time ago, thankfully it was some time ago.
