Hell, its even as simple as typing in "Cherokeeforum.com fan wont run" into google...
Searching is one of the basic skills of using the internet, and the fact that you joined a forum does not mean you can stop searching...

Maybe before gaining access to the forum, a new user must go through a search tutorial or watch a video lol. Would solve all the issues. Maybe even throw a quiz on the end to make sure they were paying attention. *DING DING* School's in session!

well tell the admin to turn off the registration and just use this site as a database, because in your words "the same stupid question has been answered numerous times". so whats the point of having a forum if all anyone ever dose is ask they same "stupid" questions?
quit being a search ****, search ****'s are more annoying then the "stupid" people asking the "stupid" questions.

Not sure about everyone else, but every time I try to use the search on my phone I get a parse error. It has never worked.

Completely agree. If someone sees a thread that been asked over and over dont click on the thread. Pass it up and you never have see the same stupid thread/question again.

I searched and came up with like 20 threads about why people dont search. Before i clicked that button though, i thought long and hard about the possible world changing ramifications of searching about a search. Thankfully its nothing like crossing the streams.

Now...what tires should i get for my lift?
