Hey all,

I have a pretty high priority question that didn’t get any responses. How would I go about trying to draw more attention to it? Is there a way to bump questions on these forums, or should I just re-ask?

It’s a valid question, and one that I don’t see referenced in the How to use this Q&A? referenced to the right…

Assuming you’ve given the question adequate time for an answer, I might try the following:

  • Ask the question again, maybe trying to improve it if possible to increase the chance of receiving input.
  • Add a comment to the original question, explaining that it was re-asked, with a link to the updated question (and asking for conversations to take place in that new question).
  • Ask for forgiveness if the above is officially frowned upon for some reason… ;^)

That said, I serve in no official capacity here, so the above is just a suggestion…
