hmmm....you'd have to enforce that rule, then....and the tech moderators would spend all their time reviewing posts to see if they "went somewhere"......which means you'd get less help in those forums
and that is another one of the difficulties you see...
i grant you that its not a perfect system....that some posted problems are never answered and fall through the cracks....that some people get frustrated by that and feel they are neglected...and that some folks are just not very helpful, either through the info they provide or their way with words......
but i can't imagine any rules that will make it perfect.
EDIT:
lol...or maybe i just don't understand what you're getting at....i just realized that this thread is titled "marking a thread solved"
