Hi, Community Members!
The goal why we are posting questions on Developer Community is to get the answer.
Here is very simple guidelines document on how to ask questions which would get answers.
When you post a question you need to feel 3 fields: title, body, and group. And tags.
1. The Title
A good title should contain the brief description of your problem - it should not be longer than 80-90 symbols.
But brief doesn't mean one word. These are not very good titles for questions: Cache, Ensemble, Peace, World.
Examples of good questions:

Hi, Community!
There are plenty of questions on Developer Community every day, which is great!
And which is even better - there are plenty of answers!
A few months ago we introduced a nice feature - 'accepted answer'.
'Accepted answer' is a checkbox on the left of every other answer you see in a question post. So it let's op to mark the particular answer as accepted one. If you do that, this question disappears from unanswered filter.
And, we introduced a special challenge of "Accepted answer" in Global Masters which gives 150 points for every answer which is marked as accepted.
So let's accept

What has been introduced:
1. Better notifications

And if you don't want this type of notification to be delivered anymore click unsubscribe link in the notification and it will lead to the settings of this very type to alter.
