Do you search before making a new thread?

I've only ever made one (In this forum, as a coinkydink LOL), but I checked back a couple of pages before posting it to make sure there wasn't already one recently. I always do before making new threads.

I hardly ever search, and when I do it's not because I'm making a new thread. I'm normally on top of all of the boards I normally post in, so when I want to post a thread I'll normally know whether there's an active one on the matter or not. For me, searching only exists to find out more of PC's history.
'It's been a prevalent notion. Fallen sparks. Fragments of vessels broken at the Creation. And someday, somehow, before the end, a gathering back to home. A messenger from the Kingdom, arriving at the last moment. But I tell you there is no such message, no such home -- only the millions of last moments . . . nothing more. Our history is an aggregate of last moments.'

I rarely make threads, but when I do, I always make them because I have previous threads by memory. If I remember one that hasn't been posted for long, then I will post the thread. Simple as cake.

Most of the time I cannot be motivated to actually make a thread, so I just seem to toss my ideas to other people who seem to make it a habit to make topics here. As much as I repeat myself to those who haven't taken the time to look for already existing threads, I...rarely ever search. :D; I do my moderating rounds everyday on PC, so I have a good idea of what threads are currently active. Though that doesn't mean I don't search at all, this I usually do on an alternate account.

A few of them are my role plays and hacks so they are original xD

No, I don't. I actually search through manually, just in case someone used a different wording. When I discover that a thread similar hasn't been posted in for 30 days, THEN I make the new thread. Unless, of course, it's a thread regarding my own creations.
