Details For Forum Questions:

This isn't a new idea or one that I thought of, rather it's an idea that comes from utilizing other sites for support when it comes to the phpBB3 and would be great to see implemented on the Unity Forums to speed up the rate at which help can be given.

A lot of the time when a user asks a question on the Unity Forums, we're forced to ask them questions before we can answer, especially in regards to new installs/ray/orca questions.  There are simply to many variables that we have to find out what's in the background before we can help them out, and if we assume we all to often lead them in the wrong direction. 

Would it be unreasonable to make it a requirement that individuals seeking help make answering the following questions a standard part of the Unity Forums, in an effort to standardize how the questions are asked and give those who are helping the most information.  This would also be great for others who have similiar issues to see if the question will apply to them or not.  A solution given for a Linux server will usually not work on a Windows Server as an example:

Here is how we could do this:

• 1.  Type of Server:     __    Linux                     __  Windows
• 2.  Dolphin Version:  
• 3.  Server:        __ Home   __ Shared   __  VPS  __  Dedicated
• 4.  PHP Version:    ___ PHP 5.       __ suPHP
• 5.  Handler:   __ Apache    __CGI
• 6.  Forums:   __  Orca     __  phpBB3    __  vBulletin  and so on
• 7.  RMS:  __ Boonex Free   ___  Leased    __ Run own RMS

These 7 little questions would work a world of difference when it comes to helping individuals out when it comes the questions they ask and also make things much more searchable on the Forums in the long run. 

Just a suggestion of something used on the phpBB3 forums that really does make things easier and simpler for everyone.
