The Question and Answer Board

[The Original dpb5!]

Matt, what is it that has become lost in the translation as the site is growing? One of the main reasons I got involved in IHUB was because of the very unique Chairman of the Board feature.

Originally, that feature was shown on the Home Page of IHUB, but is now only mentioned if one clicks on the FAQ Link!

And it still says there that a chairman can delete posters but I recently remember hearing that only you have that ability again? Is that true, or not?

What is the Chairman of the Board concept?
The Chairman of the Board concept (COB) is a very unique feature to iHub. We created this feature because of the wide-spread problem with spam, personal attacks, and bashing without reason or facts. As Chairman of a Board, you can delete messages, manage the opening information to the board, manage the e-mail list for that board or club, and add/delete Directors to help you watch over the board. (If a Chairman has become inactive and you can not get a hold of him, e-mail Support, and he can be replaced). The COB concept was designed to keep discussions focused, clean, and fresh -- not cluttered with useless links and bickering. This is a new concept, so make sure you read all FAQs and How To's associated with the various features! And use them wisely!

I just posted a message on the Chairman of The Board Concept Message Board, asking why that thread had died.
As a suggestion, I would like to thoroughly understand the current status of the purpose of the Chairman of The Board Concept. To me, I always envisioned that the Chairman would be like the MAYOR of that Community, and that as admin you would be the GOVERNOR to reside over individual unresolvable issues within a given board.

I think that until the Chairman of the Board mysteries are resolved once and for all and clearly spelled out on the FAQ and featured once again on the home page, the problems that IHUB are experiencing noted on this MATT board recently will continue in abundance.

One of the things that puzzles me the most is that if someone files a TOU, shouldn't it first go to the Chairman of The Board of that particular Board? This would certainly save a lot of time on your part as the site grows.


Any replies to this should be posted of the Chairman of the Board Concept Board.
