Many of our forums have title prefixes flags available to help members tell what a thread is about at a glance. For example here are the prefixes available in many of our discussion forums.

The question is would adding a "Help" prefix be useful to members?

Don't forget to vote this suggestion up or down. The right answer is whatever you think, just let us know.
 
You could have “discussion” maybe?

Maybe “advice” but too similar to help maybe?

I like "discussion" While it may have some slight overlap with "question" or "info" I think it's unique enough to be useful. For example: "Discussion: What are the pros and cons of Sidemount versus Backmount Doubles?" Sure, that's phrased as a question, but is far more of a topic intended for discussion.

Another topic I might want is "Guide" although it is really similar to "info." The idea of "Guide" is that it's instructional in some way, such as how to perform a skill, build or repair something, tutorial, etc.
