I see a lot of questions posted here that either don't make sense, or don't really appear to be serious. I understand some questions are from participants who's English may not be perfect, but I am not talking about those. I am talking about questions that are either obvious in their answer or nonsensical in their description. Some questions are even very similar and posted on the same day by the same members. Perhaps to achieve a badge for many questions? What are your thoughts on question moderation? Saving Changes...
This is a fantastic reminder thread thanks for pointing out Sante! I guess an alternate to being ‘moderated’, members should have own self-inclination to search topics of interests prior to posting.
PS: As of today noted your nice round number of your contacts, 16000 wow! Many congratulations Sante!

Hi Suzi, oh I just noticed that. That number is small fry compared to some others. I gave up trying to actively add members to my network a while back as it was too time-consuming. I just add them here and there. I'm glad you liked the reminder thread. Cheers.
Hello Sante: Thank you for asking the question, and I understand your frustration. After review from my peers comments to your question and some self-contemplation, my vote would be against moderation of the discussion boards even though there are some discussions posted that are redundant, quickly asked vs. looking up the information themselves or don't really make sense. My reaction to these types of posts is to move on and don't respond. My main reason for keeping the discussion board un-monitored is to allow freedom of speech in a safe environment to ask anything without violating the discussion board "rules" for decency and respect. Your question made me stop and think and I am very proud of the thoughtful responses by my respected colleagues.

It should be moderated but the practicality of it would be quite challenging. Saving Changes...

Seems like they are more into getting badges rather then actual sharing of information.

Yes, it's one of the reasons I dropped off the engagement.
