While I agree in principle, consider this: perhaps 75% of the technical questions that appear in various audio forums would not be asked in the first place were the posters not too cheap/lazy to buy/read a book on loudspeaker design in the first place. Of those questions perhaps 90% could also be answered in the various FAQ sections that already exist, but again the posters are too lazy to do a search. When you point this out to some they are offended that they can't glean in an hour on line what it takes the average audio engineer to learn from ten years of practical experience.

For this reason when I do open a forum related to my site I probably won't bother with an FAQ section. Sadly, the majority of simple questions I answer regarding the construction of my designs are covered in the text that accompanies the photos and drawings, but for whatever reason that text seems more often than not to be read only as a last resort.
