Contributing to the forums and using search feature

[James Masotti]

So I'm curious to get the perspective of other BP members, and I guess in particular those who are more seasoned on the site.

I'm sure a number of you are members of other forums where noobs are flamed for asking questions without using the search feature. Having been in these environments before my default on BP is to search when I have a question about something. And of course because BP is so awesome I pretty much find the answer to my question about 99.9% of the time. Now...I'd like to be a contributing member to the forum but so far I don't really feel like I have much to add and since I always find my answers from searching...I'm left not writing posts. 

I figure once I start getting more serous about making my next acquisition I'll document the process for folks but up until then...what/if anything are productive ways to contribute to the site?
