    Yesterday, this OP yesterday attempted to post a variation of the same question under a different heading. I’m posting it here as an example of a couple of things that really annoy me on this Forum.

    I informed my Strata I wanted to install Double Glazing, and it was brought up in the general meeting. The result of that meeting is that I need to prepare a by-law to show Strata for consideration / approval. I have no idea how to go about doing this, does anyone have any advice? Do I basically need to find a lawyer to work alongside my window company, to draft up the plans as well as legal mumbo-jumbo, and then put it all forward to Strata for review?

    Strike one:  if you read through the rest of this thread you will see that the OP has been informed that they don’t need a by-law, unless there are circumstance that they haven’t revealed to the Flatchatters who’ve taken the time and trouble to answer the original query. What’s the point in in asking questions if you don’t read the answers?

    Strike two: Starting a new thread on the same question because you’re not satisfied with the first answer is not allowed.  This scattergun. pester-power approach clogs up the forum with multiple variations on the same question.  If you don’t understand the answers or you want to know what to do next, come back to the original thread.  Don’t wander off and start the same process elsewhere.

    It annoys me when Flatchatters have wasted their time and energy on people who don’t bother to read the replies.  Just repeating the question in a new thread does nothing to lower the blood pressure.

    A valid question would have been “I’ve read the responses but the strata committee insists I need a by-law … what do I do now?”
