Frequently Asked Questions

It would be nice if a FAQ thread could be highlighted in RED and listed at the top of the FORUM page that is alway viewable. This might reduce daily multiple repeated questions and help new and old members search common questions and topics.

THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!!!!! GREAT SUGGESTION!!!!

Agree!! :-)

Good suggestion. I would love to be able to view important topics without using the clumsy search feature.

We're launching the next iteration of VST in about 1-3 months. This idea was discussed previously but never went anywhere. I'd love to add this to the new site. How do you gals suggest we go about this ?

I would love to see a tab at the very top of the page where we have Forum, Community, Photos. And have a tab that is labeled "frequent questions' and in the pull down menu: stalls, hair loss, vitamin ideas, protein shake debate. I don't know if this will help. Or if there is a tab for frequent questions and then it pulls up a search where you can enter your question easier and get answers faster from previous posts? But you kind of have that already. hmmmmm.

Somehow it is getting missed.

Thanks! And I am looking forward to the new version of VST!

Compiling that list is going to be a job. Any volunteers ? :D

COnative, you must have been reading my mind. It would also be nice to add to that Hospital/Airport "Shoutouts" and "I at the wrong THING!" This may help.

I wish. But I am unable to help at this time. I didn't realize that this is a volunteer based website. This might not be possible after all but it can sure be a fantasy! ;)

I'll volunteer, I'd be more than happy to compile the list.

I'll volunteer' date=' I'd be more than happy to compile the list.[/quote']

Thanks! Let's use this thread to compile a complete list. Once it's completed, I'll convert the info into an official FAQ.

That's great. I really hope this helps! Can I also suggest that if a new post is posted in the incorrect category that it be moved to correct category with a note like "Your post has been moved to "????" category.

Thanks!

We have the ability to do this but it's not used often. Currently the only time we do this is if we receive a report. In the near future I'd like to get the community more actively involved in moderation and organization of topics.

I'll volunteer, I'd be more than happy to compile the list.

Hey THANKS ahead of time for all your time in doing this! I am so happy you are able to do this. Thank you again!

I really was hoping that I wouldn't need to write and compile the FAQ's myself. If everyone contributes just a few questions/answers, we can really get the ball rolling.
