"vcdhelp.com" is a great site. I try to read as many forum posts as possible and post a reply if I can add any value (I am a newbie myself). However, I find that quite a few forum posts do not have a meaningful subject. For example, the subject reads "Help with TMPGEnc" or "Stupid/Simple Question on ..." or "Newbie! Please Help!" or just "Help".
I believe that the subject field of the mail is an important eye-catcher. I do not think that any question is "stupid". In my sincere opinion, if the subject line highlights the problem better, then better responses may be solicitated. This forum has a large number of posts. It is likely that the forum post may remain "unnoticed" because of lack of the proper subject. Just my suggestion though.
