We have had a number of new members join Spine-Health recently. That is always good news.

However, I've been watching as many of these new members post.
We have tried over and over to help new members on how to make their first post and how to get started effectively here.

Today so many new members post:

- Without first doing any search to see if the topic has already been covered.
- Do not provide any information about themselves. For instance, I have a bad back what can I do?
- Duplicate Posting
- Making their first post and 10 minutes later posting WHY NO one has responded!

There are really very simple ways to make your first post so that you will have the best exposure on this site and be pretty sure you will get quick responses.

When people post like I mentioned above, many people do not have the time to address questions that have been discussed so many times before or to know even where to begin with what a persons's problem is.

There are so many members on this site and the member community is really devoted to helping other members. All you need to do, is be a member for a short while and you will see this yourself.

But, I need to ask ALL NEW MEMBERS - PLEASE READ THE FORUM FAQs and Important posts we have made on how to get started on Spine-Health. We all want you experience here to be positive, but we do need your help in accomplishing that.
