How to Ask a Good Question on a Forum

I don't have time right now but this post is to remind to write a post about how to ask a good question on the forum - something along these lines but shorter LINK Happy to do a blog post if that's helpful.

 

I've noticed that the quality of the questions coming across the forum has fallen off recently.  People need some tips on how to ask a question in a way that will increase the likelihood that they'll get a good response, quickly.

 

Please like if you think this is something we need.

  • Well Austin.  And responding in this way - only because I met you tonight and feel that I can.  I would love for you to write a community blog post about asking a good question.  (though considering you didn't get any 'likes' on your post - I'm wondering if it's because you didn't ask a "good question" :)  ha ha.  I had to! )  

     

    But this is also a great way to scoop Matt and Avi as they compete to see who has the first community blog.  We'll keep it between you and me, and then you can 'surprise' them!  See, I can be ornery too!

     

    Seriously - I would love for you to write a community blog post on how to ask a good question in a forum.  And if you have a number of 'best forum practices' - we could make it a 'series'.  We could even find a title for you, hmmm...Community Guardian, no....Community Best Practice Manager... eh.... Ok - we'll work on the 'title' thing.  Let's start with your first blog, and see how it goes. :)  http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/bg-p/community_blog

     

    Keep me in the loop when you blog so that I can amplify it...(make you famous).  :)
