Thank you EVERYONE. This is indeed the best web community that I've dealt with and/or gotten help from ever since Linux/GNU stepped into my life. Keep up all the hard work, desire and dedication LQ crew!
As a suggestion: I'd like to see a dedicated, prominent link to [SOLVED] threads to make finding solutions easier for those with already answered questions.

Also it might really encourage the OPs to mark their threads. That way, we can finally find the "unsolved threads" and help them!

"LQ Radio is something I'd really like to get back on track"
What's holding you back? Just a lack of time, or need for hosting, or technological issues? And is there any of whatever's missing that volunteers might help with?
(It annoys me that I keep finding myself at times running out of new Linux (ogg|pod|web)casts to listen to, so having another one online would be nice. Rather than just complain about it, I figured I can at least try to help. AND complain...)
The ability to mark them [SOLVED] isn't what I mean. I mean the ability to easily find solved threads later through a dedicated link or dedicated search for solved threads.
It could cut down on the number of duplicate threads addressing questions that have already been answered. Or did I miss something in the link?

If you go to the Advanced Search (or just open Search in a new tab) you'll see the option to filter search by [Solved], [No Prefix] (unsolved) and [Any Prefix] (both solved and unsolved). Is that what you were after?

Ah, I misunderstood then. As XavierP pointed out, that's already possible. Thanks for the feedback.
