I know this is probably too much extra programming to worry about, but I think that it would be great for:

Noobs under a certain post count (maybe 20 or so just to train them proper behavior) that click the "New Thread" button get a window that says:

"Before you start a new thread, please answer the following questions:

1) Have you tried search yet?
__ Yes
__ No

Search for these terms now:
___________________________________ SearchButton


2) Have you checked out the FAQs for each forum?
__ Yes
__ No

LINK - Suspension FAQ
LINK - Tires FAQ
LINK - Exterior FAQ
etc....

Now that you've looked for your answer in the FAQs and with search, click the button below to create your thread:

NewThreadButton"

 

Good idea! Hehe
