Request for common title headers

I have a suggestion:
Ferrarichat.com has a problem when searching for 'stuff'/issues/topics/traces
As a DBA it frustrates the H**l out of me trying to find data and then, sometimes being shot down by others for not being exhausting enough in my search.

I know this should be directed squarely at the site mgrs. but I wanted to sort the items in debate before doing so.


SUGGESTION:
title should list generic search nouns/verbs, and
might include a part number. Can you include a pull down of titles or something. [I would do a search on this suggestion, but that's exactly part of the problem....]
IF NOTHING else, there should be a series of check boxes indexing or categorizing the thread: talking Tech Q&A, and model issues only, could care less about P&R etc.

know this sounds difficult, but on-line books can give the part or area in question like eurospares.co.uk

I've noticed a posting on hot start issues--348/Mondial-T etc.: how many times has THAT come up...lots. [just to name one]
or
Noise in my 456 rear, or window issues in 456
etc. etc.


how many times must it be re-done/reinvent the wheel...can't tell how many times we have probably lost valuable data

remember the typical posts "repost", "do a search", "I want a link...can you remember for me", etc.

look at what happened to rifledriver on fchat, he's taken a leave of absence either becuase he is on vacation, or exhausted in answering the same, redundant questions: "how do I check my oil..." geesch.
this site could be awsome [hate that word] in fixing what fchat lacks, a good directory or compartmentalization of data for finding the wealth of knowledge posted.

Using eurospares one could use their common index like
Mechanical
wheels
engine
- electrical
- ignition
-etc
coachwork
- seats
- console
- etc.

etc. etc.


or, does everyone like spending lots of time searching?
FWIW

thought about that too.

guess somewhere in this request is a means to have tags associated with whatever is posted, when the thread is opened. the poster would have to select engine/coach, + cosmetic/repairs+?, +[some tag here etc.]

might not show up in header/title, but would be easily associated with the thread postings: all of them that reply.

later someone could add to the tags to help out: just a thought
