Site expectations for posting new threads.

[Ascended]

I have made a good few new threads for a new forum member.
Whats the expectation, am I doing too many.
I do a search to see if there is something similar one, if there is a similar one and its from an active user I would post in theirs as opposed to making a new one. If not or many many years ago i would make a new thread.
But if there is no similar thread, i make the new one.
Am I making to many. Whats the protocol?
My only motivation is to promote discussion, learn and not break rules.
