The only thing about telling people to "Just start a new thread, already!!!" is that you have to remember they're new users, and starting threads can be quite intimidating, or they might not even know how.
Case in point, I see a lot of "regulars" here who NEVER, or VERY rarely, start a thread themselves, so demanding people who are brand-spanking new to the site to start their own brand-new thread about a topic that interests them isn't very realistic, and, as Fenner pointed out, not very welcoming at all.

As for myself, I would suggest rather than demand. Nor would I say anything sarcastic.
So help me out here in understanding your thoughts please.
