Sadly you are not alone. Very few Lotters, especially the newer ones, read the FAQs. Look on the right -- That is an example of why tags are important and they will get your discussions seen on search engines too. Welcome to myLot!

I always wondered that too.. I've heard someone say its important to tag your discussions so they can get into the "hot" section. I guess it makes your discussion easier for other people to find, and it can recommend discussions on the home page based on tags. I'm not 100 % sure though.
