I was thinking that it would be helpful if there were a "Thread Resolved" checkbox that the initiator of the thread could check when his question is answered to his content. Then, instead of posting a new question, one could search through all the "Resolved" threads for answers.

What would be really neat is some icon viewable in the main forums that would tell people whether the thread has been resolved. That would make it easier on people trying to help (i.e. you can spend more time helping than looking through a thread to see that it has been answered) others.

Just a thought; I'm curious to know how much work this would be. I know next to nothing about programming on the web, so I really wouldn't know...
