How often do you remember seeing a question here and upon finding an answer, search to find that question in order to provide feedback?

“Great Question” (1points)

Say there’s a question such as: “What are great songs for driving?” And, like a month later, you hear a great song and want to tell the OP about it. Do you go search for that question to answer it?

Just curious!

Occasionally.

Sometimes, if it didn’t seem to be time-sensitive.

Sometimes, but I always have a hard time remembering who asked the question or the exact way the question was worded. I’ve tried to find some questions from awhile back and just gave up because I didn’t have the correct key words to the original question.

I’ve done this a few times when I haven’t seen any new activity on a question where some poor fluther was having a really hard time with a relationship problem. But since there’s quite a few of them, sometimes I can’t recall their avatar name.

I do it occasionally also.

Yes sometimes I have. It’s great fun searching for the question

Never. My memory is terrible, I would never remember a question I’d seen before, unless it was just in the past few days.

Sometimes.

I appreciate it when they provide a link to the earlier question like JLeslie did for my question here: http://www.fluther.com/107995/how-do-you-definedescribe-a-good-driver/#quip1764350

More and more often. I can safely say at least once a day, possibly more. I have cut way down on my participation in Fluther because several users asked me to stop bring up the past, and one got downright nasty about it.

@YARNLADY I don’t mind (and in fact appreciate) if you bring up other/former questions, because I have not been in here long enough to know about some of the older questions. Let those poopalotties calm down.

All the time.

@Kardamom : I like “poopalotties”. Very evocative!
