During my short time as amember of this great forum, one thing above all stands out, and that is that there are some very helpful members who have some very good solutions to common and seemingly simple problems.
As a member who has experienced a few problems trying to work out how to do certain things it can be very difficult to find what you need to know as the solutions are often spread over lots of comments and on different threads. In an ideal world the RCZ manual would be all encompassing and have answers to everything we need to know, however, as we know it is not the greatest or even most accurate book in the world and even if it was, not everyone can understand the way these things are generally structured. Anyway enough of the waffle, here is my suggestion:
There should be a section on here that is called "How Do I" or something like this. This would not be a discussion thread it would be an instruction section. that can only be written into by the administrators and everyone else can only read it. This is how I would see the process working.
- Forum members or administrators create very simple and concise instructions which where relevant could contain computer screen shots and or photos.
- Administrators verify that the instructions work, either themselves or through various senior members of the forum.
- When varified the administrators post them and post a note to say new instructions added to advertise the fact.
A couple of recent threads that I have been reading would be great examples of where this would be beneficial.
- Programming your home address in the SAT NAV
- Which Ipods work and which ones don't
- Spare wheel solution
- Etc, etc, etc.
I think you can get the jist of what I am suggesting!!!
What does everyone think?
