    Default How to avoid duplicate threads by using the search feature... in pictures

    Lets face it, if you see what you think is a hot topic chances are someone else did as well. In an effort to keep the conversation in one thread use the forum search to see if your topic has already been posted.

    First let me say, that this wouldn't be so difficult if people would stop with the cute and funny thread titles.







    After you click "search now" all relevant threads will appear on the next page that loads for your perusal.

    Did you know you can find out quickly if that Youtube Video you want to post has been posted before? I bet you didn't!

    Use the same string of characters that you would normally use to embed the video into your post and enter it into the forum advanced search: http://forum.pafoa.org/search.php

    That will return all the threads where that video has been previously posted.

    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.
