Re: How About Tech Staff

No.


Because the first word of the site URL, "Open", means it's anyone who has any knowledge whatsoever that can lend a hand to a person.

To start giving "Tech Staff" titles would render the site's original purpose pointless.

Re: How About Tech Staff

Anyone who knows the answer to any question asked can answer that question. That's how this site works.

Having an official "tech staff" would just be silly and pointless. Every one of us is on the "tech staff" every time we answer a question.

Re: How About Tech Staff

Thanks very much for the suggestion.

We considered putting specific "tech" titles before, but it seems to cause more problems and misunderstandings. It seems to give off the vibe that some people were better than others, and that is not what this site wants to happen. We want everyone to be looked upon equally. This is a volunteer-driven site and everyone has to have equal weight when posting their views, unless they're part of the staff that runs this site.

Unless we go out and actually pay someone to answer questions (which is highly unlikely considering we're not-for-profit), putting a title on someone would just make it appear that he is better or more knowledgeable than everyone else. That may be true or not, but the last time I saw a site doing this, some members targetted the poor guy and demanded his answers instead of those from the other members. Quotes like "Hey, you're tech staff, aren't you? Answer my question!" or "I'm sorry, but I need someone from the tech staff to answer my question, please..."

I know, it seems a bit pessimistic and cynical, but it's happened before, and I've been running this site long enough to know that it's very possible here, too. I think you can agree with me from some of the replies you got, haha...

But thanks again for the suggestion. Once I get around to updating the forum script, I'll be putting in "thank you" points for the support forums so that "truly" helpful people can get recognition they deserve and maybe receive some perks.

Thanks for being a member, forbidden14eva, and don't hesitate to post other questions you may have.

- CL
