Binod Singh 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2005 I just wanted to know, whether I have to search the entire forum through search or through individual topics before posting new topics.What if I start a new topic without searching, if that topic is already there in discussion. Is it allowed or not?At present I search entire forum before posting any new topic and post my messages appropriate for the topic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Solar 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2005 Most of the time it's best to just use the search, though I don't post many topics it's a very useful tool, neh?And if you know the topic is already there, or the possibility of it being there, I don't think it's allowed if you repost it.

whyme 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2005 There's no point in starting a new topic on the same subject when it's already being discussed. However, If say, the topic has died down, and no one replys, AND there's new stuff on the topic, then you can start a new one-whyme Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Binod Singh 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 I have certain questions for clarification.What is the life cycle of a post? So far, which post got maximum no. of responses?If no reply is given to a post how longer it remains active in the forum? I have posted few new topics related to ?Network Monitoring tools? but did not received any reply. Is it allowed to start a new topic on that subject or continue to add reply on that topic?

Dooga 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2005 Your post was probably overided by the other posts in the forums. When someone posts a reply, it will "bump" it. But I don't think you should double post to bump it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
