Designated "Expert" Forum Users?

<< < (77/98) > >>

rstofer:
We talked about that 'other' site and their approach - there are separate forums under the umbrella of "Go Ask The Expert" with several topics and associated experts.  Anybody can pose a question, only the dedicated expert can reply.  These run in parallel with the more community forums.  Of course, anybody can post a question there as well.

So, if you want diverse opinions, post to the community forums, if you would prefer a more expert opinion, and you don't mind waiting, there are the expert forums,

This has the advantage of keeping the community oriented forums open,

It's in the first post. Someone asked about it and it kinda had some merit so I asked here.

But I am considering competing offers from Klaus Schwab at the WEF, Bill Gates, the Koch brothers, Blackrock, and some guy who looks remarkably like a lizard. I'm kinda erring on the side of the lizard guy.

I am an octogenarian hobbyist and have lived through the transformations of ETO, EDAboard and  AAC.  How much would it take ($) to keep EEVBlog a community site (with updated software) the same?  Maybe a GoFundMe or similar crowd funded site is an alternative?

Gee, chill out a bit.
Nothing is changing.
Here is how this works, and it's been the same for the last 12+ years this forum has been going. Occasioanlly I will get an idea for a change/improvement, or someone will suggest one, and unless it's absolutely minor I will put a poll on the forum so the community can vote on if it's worth pursuing or not. Many people even start their own threads on suggested changes and discuss it.

Yet when I emailed you a few months back about an extremely interesting new member suggesting you approach him for an Amphour interview I get back squat !

And someone suggests you change the forum and we go through all this BS ?

"All this BS"? it's a simple poll asking if it's an idea worth pursuing, been done a hundred times on here in the past, chill out.
Sorry I didn't reply, I don't know why I didn't. And I just saw your email again recently and have actually contacted the person to come on the amp hour.
Often I read email and don't have time to reply right then, so I set it back to Unread hoping to get back to it, or I mark it Unread so it stays in my inbox. And then, well, shit happens.
And BTW, you might be very embaressed to find out who actually suggested this and under what circumstances.

What is your problem? Where have I ever said I'm going through with this? Show me the post. It was very clear from the first hour that it wasn't popular, so it's not going ahead. If you are complaining about the 14 page thread this is turned into, then no one is forcing you to read it. Discussion like this often lead to interesting ideas for improvement not related to the original idea.
