I'm not sure that's the best idea. Sure we could give penalties, but a majority of the people who post here are first timers who probably take little time to look at the stickies (I know I didn't). We'd be giving warnings to just about everyone while not helping our cause at all. Plus, we don't really want to come off as jerks to potential members.

Normally I'd agree, but they're noobs in need of help. It'd be nice if there was some way we could force read a thread before posting a new thread, but that isn't possible. If someone fails to give adequate information the first time around, maybe we could politely point to this in an attempt to get them to relay more info back.

Maybe I'm being too lenient...
