In my opinion answers being repeated is kind of useless and somewhat annoying when looking through the replies and seeing the same answer over and over again. If people want to help, I think that they should just add onto what other users have said and give their opinion on the situation since it might be useful to the user in need and it might actually be the answer to their problem, and not repeating the answer.

You're welcome.
Thanks to everybody who posted their opinions; it seems we all agree that repeating answers in general is annoying. (: I'll leave this open for a bit if anybody else would like to share their opinion.

I did not know some of this, so I will do my best to follow these rules

Although I think I did do one of those a while ago, if I did, I'm sorry. I won't do it again

I do try my best not to post needlessly, so reading this as encourged me not to have any second thoughts

Thank you for coming up with this, Koa, Sintact and Cana, I'm sure it will be very helpful in the future for users who don't know much about the forums ^^

Yeah. Repeating answers are quiet annoying. If something was answered for the 6th time the same way, you dont read this topic anymore... And maybe just then someone writes a better suggestion and noone reads it because of the repeating answers.
And people were doing it just to raise their rank.
So yep. This is useful! Thanks Koa.

But how do you expect us to post thousands of thingsso we get ranks (high ones) if we cant repeat anwsers? you cant sit and wait for a post and awnser it. your barely ever first nd people themselves don have that many ? to ask.

And thats why you need to be more active. If you spend enough time on the forums you can post enough. And you dont have to repeat the answer if you have a better suggestion.

Timbre, reapeting answer is really annoying and it doesn't help the one who asks. He/she can't read through all those posts which are answering the same over and over! If you are active around the forums, you can answer questions polite and gently without annoying anyone. And moderators know what to do, so you mustn't disagree with them.. ^_-

I dont want to go off topic but you just did that...
I answered the same before you

Making a post more complete is allowed, just make sure you add extra information, but it is better to avoid adding any already said idea.

Anyways, do not repeat answers here, if you want to raise your post count you can comment at General WQ Discussions, Introduce Yourself, Wolf Q&A, General Wolf Discussions, Take Action, Wildlife, etc. (Forum Ganes, Get to Know each Other and Avatars will not raise your post count)

Also (even though this is really off topic) for the ones that wish to help even more in the Community. Make sure to promote the FAQ by posting links to it when answering questions. We will greatly appreciate your help if you advertise the FAQ and Forum Guidelines in your signature as well (as I am doing now).

I will certainly keep this in mind, Koa.

That's a great idea, Sintact!
