@dulanism[This](https://community.graylog.org/t/tips-for-posting-questions-that-get-answers/21828) is the tips section we talked about in our meeting the other day. Maybe you and the crew have some ideas on how to mix it with the [original post](https://community.graylog.org/t/how-to-post-a-question-in-the-community-that-gets-responses/20879) to make it readable and compelling for new members of the community who have questions? It also shows up in the comment box when people create new topics but I think the original is too long for the quick take the average person takes while looking at it. Let me know what you think - happy to discuss further.

These are good thoughts @tmacgbay. I’ll look at updating the sub-community byline to reference this format. Thanks, and it was great meeting you, sir!
