My only objection to the one-off question poster is if he or she has clearly not made an effort to search for an answer first.
Competely agree with this. I used to envy forums which generate debate, but they're simply an enirely different beast. More often than not, we're providing solutions rather than debate. That is to say that the majority of people register because they're in trouble, not because they want to chat about their hobby.

We have a regular body of members which answer 95% of the problems for 95% of the members. So kudos to all those that give up their time to help others.
