The Question and Answer Board

Hi Matt,

I know I'm pretty new around here, but I thought I'd throw in my two cents.

I agree with Vs post that Chairman concept is a good one. I can see from an administrative point of view it must work well. The only problem might be if you got a chairman and/or director who was a disruptive or unfair person.

It's been suggested tallying the ignores. On Yahoo you can recommend individual posts and on RB you have the "power" rating system. I'd like to see a combination of some sort of positive reinforcement (either for individuals or their good posts) and some indication that a poster is a problem child. So, I guess I kind of like the idea of tallying ignores as long as it's balanced with some sort of positive rating system. The reason being that posters who are straight shooters can be received poorly even when they are posting factual information. So not everyone is going to get all ignores or all recommends, it's going to be some balance of the two in most cases.

Anyway... just my thoughts. Have a good day.
