Romeos, The post is not not meant to be negative. It is constructive -- it identifies a shortcoming and suggests possible solutions, humbly so no less.
As regards the other responses concerning FAQ's, I do see your point and can agree that some percentage of users will still be too lazy to do proper research. Having said that, pointing someone to a FAQ entry is, imho, a lot easier than answering questions repeatedly or taking the time to find a thread and posting a link.
Perhaps a [FAQ] bbcode would allow one to point a user very quickly. [FAQ]queries[/ FAQ] could be as simple as constructing a link to faq_url#queries.
