Thank you!

I love it. This is what keeps me coming back to OCN. My only question is, can we extend the quality content/professional initiative to user's avatars as well? I have a very free workplace but even here I've had to really limit my usage because of inappropriate content.

If you encounter an avatar that is not safe for work viewing, please report it.

By the Professionalism Initiative, avatars are covered. If you report the avatar, i'm sure one of the mods will take good care of it.

When I see an avatar I don't like, I right-click on it and Adblock it. I'll start reporting them first from now on.

This is great to know! I was always hesitant to do that because of the description under reporting. Good to know I won't be breaking the rules trying to enforce the rules

Personally, I would be inclined to say yes. Mentioning the search function can be helpful but I'd the whole post is Search for it, a simple PM would be more appropriate.

You must remember, this is an internet forum. So tone of speech, verbalization, ect; don't communicate well through text.

So it's all about the context of the section:

Examples;

Bad = "God why didn't you just search for it "

Good = "I for (xx reason) can't get you the link, but use the search bar at the top and search for [term(s) here] and it should be listed in the results "

Obviously those are on the high and low ends of the scale and won't always be that obvious.
Though rememinding people, or simply telling them of features is always a good thing if you do it with a good intention at heart.

I taught about 5 people a week or so ago that we had *Google-Tags for these forums where you simple rapped the tags around the term(s) you wanted and then it would automatically create a Google Search link for them to click.

While Google-Search may not be the easiest thing for users here, in the off topic section it can be rather useful.

As an example: "Where did you find your Hayley Williams Pictures?"
"I usually just search Google for Hayley Williams and use the resolution I want, I don't have a specific source."

*Google-Search-Tags = [g] [search term(s) here] [/g]
