and of course you can't tar all newbies with the same brush.
A newbie on the board doesn't neccesarily mean a newbie to Queen.
And at what magical post number do you stop being a newbie?
Everyone was a newbie at one point in time - everyone.
There will always be people who are lazy and ask dumb questions. Fact of life. I don't think a separate area is the answer. On the other hand, a bloody good FAQ is definately a good idea. Amazing it hasn't been done already.

Posts in chronological order
Hmm, is not fare for the other side, if the newbie has a interesting topic to set?, the topic of this forum will be few... dont feel guilty this kind of thing is happening in everywhere, there are restriction of the free expresion, I am agree if there are a classification of the topic and then the GOOD one stay there and the bad ones or the elemental question, will be answered via Mail...

Where is John?
Who's the sexiest Queen member?
Do You Like Freddie?
What's Your Favorite Song?
What's your favorite Album
Where Do You Come From?
Is John dead?
Is Freddie gay?
What do you concider as being the most gay Queen song?
Is Bohemian Rhapsody about AIDS?
These are the last times I wanted to see these questions.
So for the beginning here are the answers:
- John is retiring.
- Dunno, I'm straight guy.
- Yes we all like Freddie
- Personal, Bo Rhap. But I'm very into Shear Heart Attack, Stone Cold Crazy and Dragon Attack at the moment.
- It's ANATO, after that MIH and I'm very mutch into SHA.
- The Netherlands, the most come from The Netherlands, UK, Germany and USA
- John is alive
- Freddie was a homosexual wich also had sex with women, so actually a very strange kind of Bi, most gay.skip it, he didn't knew it himself.
- the most gay queensong is without a question Body language
-Bohemian Rhapsody is a story with a lot of strange (genius) crap in the middel.
It's not bout AIDS cause it didn't excist in that time. I believe it's about a murder, gettign in court, and at the end suicide. (But that's just my strange mind, all the songs i wrote are about murder, getting crazy, suicide, drugs and love.
So get yer Ya Ya's out and keep it in your mind.
It is also completly strange for me Why I posted this, however accept me.

FAQ would be right for newbiews, but if they ain't trying to research something now, why they should do it in future?
Maybe it'd be better if before joining to QZone you'd gotta take a test or a little exam - couple of questions about Queen history and stats. Something like 'Whose surname is Meddows?', 'How does Zanzibar relates to Queen?' and there could be some answers and newbiews would choice the right ones. So it would be impossible to ask questions like "how old roger is" after that, otherwise you're a fake one.

Good idea about the test. :)
I hope Richard would like this idea too
yes great idea! and the questions could be ones that if they didn't already know the answers they could easily research it and find the answer in just a few mintues
Just a thought... If newbies boost their post counters too quickly by posting crap in "Newbie land", then even when they have loads of posts they will still act like newbies. Perhaps it is best to put up with stupid questions in the hope they will stop once becoming rockers...
...but otherwise - great idea!!
Great point, Serry!
Other questions might include: What's the name of the guitar that Brian built with his Dad, Name the guest vocalist on "Under Pressure", and who was "Death on two legs" written about.
