Sean, The best way to go nowhere is not knowing how to get there. :>)
The finest, most expertly tweaked search engines will not instill initiative in the user. Also, a lack of awareness on behalf of the user in conjunction with a lack of discipline will result in "just another redundant post".
I have been enjoying this site for over 2 years now. And I'm being very honest when I say this, I am just finding out about the wealth of information contained within this forum. Could this possibly be why I am becoming more sensitive to redundancy?
It was a point and click learning experience. Although, if the first time I posted a question, I was directed to "an annex" or a "library" or directly to the "Forum Archives". Maybe not only would I have become even more thoroughly informed, but also be more capable of asking a question with a higher level, or degree of relevance. Something we could ALL learn from, while still maintaining forum participation in a welcoming environment.
We have had some great suggestions today. I hope that ultimately , a compilation of the resulting responses could be presented to the Audiogon officianados for a possible "update", or "streamline", depending on one's perspective.
Make Sense?
