All threads should be screened for spelling and grammar. Any thread containing mispelled words or gramatically incorrect sentences should be instantly deleted. Any requests for technical assistance should include the authors SSN, mothers maiden name and last two year's W-2.

The author of a reply should include documentation in support of their expert status. For example, the signature line could state, "I'm not a doctor, but I play one on television".

All threads should include a photograph, even if it is unrelated to the topic. That way, those of us who are technically incompetent will have something to entertain us.

But seriously, providing background on the year and model of your car is most important. Otherwise, I would say that most people do an excellent job of explaining their issues. I like the threads where people share their own stupidity. That way we all feel a little less inadequate.
