Question or Answer?

As for asking the same question again, Wade, I suspect this is due to newness to the site. I expect new PMI members come to the community with questions and don't know enough to search the discussions for similar questions.

As for the same answers by the same few people, can you clarify if you mean individuals using the same answer or do you mean a group of people using the same answer? Please note that the first issue you pointed out might be creating the second issue.

I think there's a growing (or changing) body of users who ask the same questions. We welcome new users, and I wouldn't expect a new user to search past discussions for similar questions. Better to simply ask and keep the community engaged.

There's a smaller subset of existing users who tend to answer questions, so when similar questions are asked, we tend to get the same answers.

This is not a complaint, it's just an observation.

I may add a new quote from someone who I can't recall right now, which is in alignment with Picasso's:

When I talk, I am just repeating what I already know. When I listen (or read) I might well be learning something new.
