Default Re: Newb problem

As a mere corporal in this outfit, I may perhaps be closer to this problem than some of you who are much more familiar with it's ins and outs. The FAQ as it stands is a great source of information if you have some patience. It has, however, a rather encyclopedic quality to it, and perhaps would be better labeled as an SEIV encyclopedia. A FAQ, on the other hand, should contain the most common questions and problems. Add to the encyclopedia all you want, but try to keep the FAQ to frequently asked questions.

Perhaps the FAQ could consist of links to appropriate parts of such an encyclopedia (this is starting to sound like work). That way people would get more used to using it.

Again, thanks to Slick for his time and patience in answering my questions.
