I think this happens on every forum and page of the internet! One thing that goes a long way for me is to try to find an answer first, and then just go ahead and include that on a forum...."Hey guys, I've googled and searched and asked my brother, but can't find the answer to..."
I've been both a user and a moderator, so its going to happen. Just like in my job, people ALWAYS ask questions first even when the answer is easy to find yourself, so I agree that it's always fun to have a conversation on the forum...it's always new to the new person.
From the moderator side, I'd say it's the little things that get you down...if I can be honest, I can't believe how many times people post Classifieds and violate the FAQs for this forum, so it's always a call to either PM them, delete the thread immediately, post "Hey, check our FAQ and...", or whatever.
Bottom line, we all want the same thing, a fun place to talk FIAT, cars, and etc. Let's just do that and 99% of the time we don't have any issues anyway.
