A plea to use the advanced search function before starting a thread.
 
I've noticed quite a few new threads on old subjects popping up lately. I'm not discouraging folks from posting but much of the information you seek has already been discussed. It's much easier on bandwidth, the mods, etc if we all check out past topics before posting new questions. It's fine to post in the original thread and it brings that thread back to the top of Today's Posts/New Posts for new discussion. I use the Search function as follows:

Click Search
Click Advanced Search
Type my word(s) for search in the Keyword box
Search by "Title Only" first then search "Entire Posts"

Again, I'm not discouraging posting but hoping to help everyone find the information they need sooner and keep everything cleaner.

Thanks, I have my moments.

But I really do need to know what to do with this box of DiNoblis cigars though... Store in the humidor or out?

Glove compartment is best for those.

So, like how do I protect them then?

Do you think a big PVC pipe might do it?

Since this has turned into a banter thread ...

How about we limit the heavy banter to threads in the banter forum, eh? That applies mostly to those who have been here a while and not newbies.

and an actual serious answer:

Dedicated sever, Mirrored drives, Dual core processor with lots of ram, and though not really serch performance related... 1000mb dedicated bandwidth = no biggie for site performance so far.

I started to do this, and gave it up as not worth the effort- but it works:

An Excel spreadsheet with the cigar in one column and location in the next. Searchable by cigar or location.

What the hell I will wade in on the other side of the fence.

Let me first start off by saying I fully agree that search is your friend and that there is a ton of great information to be found by using the tool.

Let me flip the coin............this is a forum..........a centre for discussion and interaction not just a repository of useful (and useless) information. So if all new people ever did was use the search then very quickly there would be nothing on the new post page (a button I use about every 15 seconds) but banter and bomb updates............ok that is in the extreme but the point is still somewhat valid...........I think.

I also think that often if a question is brought up..................or re brought up (how is that for murder of the English language) that it may bring something new to the light of day or a different viewpoint than what might be embedded in search. In the grand scheme of things if we don't wish to respond to a question that has been posed time and time again we can easily move on to the next thread.

Now again I mentioned earlier I agree with search, I often use it to point out threads to people that may have missed it and tell them to go there for some great information.

Hmmmmmmmmmm seems to me I have posted something like this before............I should have searched it (tongue firmly planted in cheek)
