How to ask a Question That Gets Answered

Writing effective questions that are answered on forums requires careful consideration and clear communication. Here are some tips to help you craft questions that are more likely to receive responses:Be specific: Make sure your question is clear, concise, and specific. Avoid vague or broad questions that can lead to confusion. Provide enough context so that others can understand your issue or topic. Use a descriptive title: The title of your question should summarize the main point or issue you're facing. A well-crafted title can attract the attention of forum users who may have expertise in that area. Do your research: Before asking a question, search the forum or website to see if a similar question has already been asked and answered. Reading existing threads can provide you with valuable information and help you avoid duplicating questions. Provide relevant details: Include any relevant information or details that could assist people in understanding and addressing your question.

Recently Active; What are people talking about?

When you are new to an online community it can be hard to figure out where to get started. I recently published a post titled: [url=https://next.nutanix.com/welcome-11/i-m-new-here-how-do-i-get-started-27658]I'm new here, how do I get started?[/url] and the intent is to help you find your way around the online community. Once you are familiar with the forums and categories, you might still not be sure where to jump in and ask a question, where to start a conversation or better yet who you can help with your experience and knowledge. The simplest way to find out whats on the mind of other community members is to view the 'Recently active' topics.

This section highlights topics community members have engaged with recently. When you return to the community the site rem

Mentions lets you acknowledge other community members in your replies and add them to your posts.When you're perusing discussion forums and come across a question you're pretty sure Mike'll be able to answer, you can respond to the post and mention Mike, who might be able to give some more insight into the query.Let's say you want to thank someone for the answer that saved your weekend. Just enter their username, preceded by an “at” symbol (@). As you begin typing, a pop-up menu will offer suggestions of users to choose from. You can either continue typing the name or select a name from the list. This is a great way to get personal in your posts and discussions.

What are you working on?

One of the awesome things about community, is the sharing and learning that can happen. It's always encouraging to see others want to help solve problems they are not directly involved in, offer new idea's to old problems and look for new ways of doing things. It also helps me connect people who may have similar interests, and can benefit from sharing their experiences. I thought this would be a great place to share what you are working on, get introduced to the community and let us know how we can help. Add your comments below, and let's begin the conversation. We have an EPIC community, let's connect and help each other power the next generation of enterprise computing. Community Manager,
