Sorry, I'm in one of those moods today.

(I was awakened by a dog barking and discovered my parent's and sister's dogs mauling one of my parent's goats. She survived, but she's in shock. I've been a little cross-eyed all day. It's no fun to wake up to a life and death struggle before you have your morning caffeine.)

I did this search by restricting the search only to this part of the forum.

I have a suggestion for this site...lots of times I feel like I want to ask a question that is painfully obvious but I don't have the time to get the answer elsewhere. If there was an "Easy to Answer" forum then people with easy questions could get quick and effortless answers. Also maybe there should be an advice section instead of everyone putting that in the newbie section. (which distro should I use, what file system, what partitioning, Gnome or KDE, etc.). What do you guys think?

Unfortunately, "easy" is *way* too subjective for a forum like that to work.

Advice would really be applicable to one (or more) of the existing forums.

And about that "Mark this forum read"-link/button?
I mean...
When browsing this board , there are a couple of forums on my standard list: Distributions , Linux General , Software and General.
When I have finished the last one , I have to check the previous ones again , to see if there are new posts since I left them before I can hit the "mark all forums read"-link.

Now , if every forum had this "mark this forum read"-link , I could just check that from the index-page and quickly check the new posts.
Saves a lot of time.

Actually : ALL messageboards I visit have this feature.
LQO is the only one , I know off , that doesn't .

Re. Linux Advice section.

Isn't that what the Wiki is for? Always assuming that we know what K.I.S.S. means.

The Wiki is for finding answers not asking them.

To be honest most questions on this forum get answered really quickly I don't think that you would get any quicker a respose by posting in a different forum.

Can you make it so that you can see the results for a poll on the same page that you vote on rather than having to click the Show Results link?

I think the idea behind not doing that is so people vote for themselves and not with the masses.

jon1591, once you vote on the poll the results will show on the main page.
