I've been noticing a trend going on in the OF.

When someone doesn't know what a term or a phrase, etc. is they immediately ask what is "____"

Instead of asking in the thread, search before asking, and reference what you found if you aren't content with what you found.

Some sites to search:
General:
www.wikipedia.org
www.google.com
Music:
www.allmusic.com

And if you have firefox or opera you have the search box already in the upper right hand corner of the screen... SOOOO there shouldn't be a problem. :)

I won't be deleting any posts, i just want to nip this before it becomes an issue.

That's actually standard in the 1.x versions of Firefox. If you don't have a 1.x version of firefox, you should update. They fixed some critical security issues.


And if you're not using Firefox, you should be :)
