Quarterly LQ Zero Reply Drive
One of the main goals of LQ is to help members get questions about Linux answered. One way we help facilitate this is with the "Zero Reply" functionality, which allows you to easily find threads with no replies. As previously announced, we've made the "Zero Reply Drive" a quarterly event here at LQ. The latest LQZRD will start at 1pm today (LQDT) and run for 96 hours. During that time, I invite everyone to click http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...p?do=noreplies and attempt to answer as many questions as they can.
Keep in mind that if you'd like to search for threads on specific topics that have 0 replies, you can do so using the advanced search (Find Threads with -> At Most -> 0 Replies).
If you have any ideas on how we can further facilitate questions being answered at LQ, please let us know in this thread.

In the future we plan to add a way for members to track specific subjects they're interested in, but we don't have an ETA at this time. Thanks for the feedback. After 24 hours we're just over 300 Threads with 0 replies.

The latest LQ Zero Reply Drive has officially ended with 273 Threads with 0 replies (from the last month), a net reduction of 50 during the drive. Thanks again for the participation.
...just as a (hopefully welcome) sidenote...zero-replies is the first thing I click on, answering a question helps me further my personal knowledge...I can only encourage everyone else to join in and not wait for the quarterly drive...make it a daily event!
I am a new user of Lubuntu/Ubuntu. My question has not been replied.
I am so sad since I must use WindXP for internet connection.
I can not update Lubuntu.
Please, forgive me for replying here.
I am so hopeless.

1) Please keep in mind that we require posts at LQ to be in some way constructive, which your post certainly is not.
2) For obvious reasons, I'm going to have to ask you to change your username. Let me know what you'd like it changed to.
