NEWBIES - PLEASE READ OR BE IGNORED...

Another idea would be to have an Artificial Intelligent software Avatar that answers most asked questions with quotes from the forum and guides. We could start with Alice an old timer, still going.
It would be quite funny if it was semi random + it could learn to get better, by trying to gain Rep points, for correct answers.

A cool feature for a forum (especially in the newbie section) would be an automatic search that happens as the user is typing in this message field (like Kayako support suite does). While they type, the words are searched instantly through all existing threads and offers up suggestions for threads as the user types (at the bottom of the screen). This is used for customer service queries and knowledgebase searches, but would be a nice addition to any forum software (if possible).

I’ve actually enjoyed helping the people who joined over the weekend, there were actually a factor of 10 less support questions than I expected. Particularly as we seem to be support for every known aspect and software involved in Crypto currency and mining!!. Pretty damn impressive.[/quote]I was one of those people! I’m glad I wasn’t too much of a burden ;-)
On a serious note though, I tend to ‘lurk and learn’ before I jump in and I’m certain it pays off.
Sometimes new users need a little encouragement to help themselves rather than expecting help on a plate.‘Alice’ would be a fantastic addition if it’s possible…

Here is a basic template for people to use who need help:

Thanks for this thread Nutnut. I didn’t read it, but I’m sure it’s great. I will PM you with my mining hardware questions in a few mins…

Do you mind if I start adding the specific guides to my new site cointut.com (aka coinnewb.com)? I don’t want to just lift content and clean it up without first asking.

Sounds like a good idea. Thank you for the input.

Can a new user start a new thread?
