im not upset. its the internet, i dont really get upset

the truth is, we could just close the board down because every question has been answered, every part has been reviewed, every idea has pretty much been tried, etc etc.. we could make the whole place just an article archive and info could be found.. thats not the point of online communities though.

plus the same question rarely gets the same answers in different threads.. also many questions spiral off into discussion about related but different things. it makes each thread unique and useful. if we just replied "SEARCH!!1" to every reposted thread, when someone actually did search, and finally found a thread with info in it besides just "search" comments, they'd get half the story, or biased opinions, or just plain bad info.

theres nothing wrong with covering the same thing twice.. or three times, or a hundred times even. its been 19 years since the mk2's introduction, we've been over everything a hundred times by now

plus theres the other thing.. this isnt a one-on-one question and answer kinda thing. one person asking a question for themselves might indirectly benefit 10 other people who read it.. many of them who find that question through a search. nothing is worse than actually searching like you're supposed to, and being told to search.

so in short, telling someone to search is absolutely useless. duplicate threads provide info.

like luni said, if you know the answer, just post it. if you dont, click back.
