Eloise Baily Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Well, seeing as it's a forum, not a FAQ, I'm perfectly happy to answer the questions if I know the answers, no matter how many times they come up. Rather than worry about whether the people asking are lazy or deficient, or if the system is pants, why not just skip it and move onto the next question. Someone will answer it who doesn't mind.

The TABS above say this is the forum, not ANSWERS. Exactly my point, why can we not have a FAQ or 4-5 FAQ as a sticky in ANSWERS. Rotate them accordingly. PS I do skip them. I can see from your contribution (almost nil) to ANSWERS that you skip everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, LL would have to maintain it... I am sure some of the helpers and contributors would not balk at the opportunity to maintain a guide. This should be one of the 'privileges' that comes with helper/contributor status. Helpers and Contributors can start new and edit draft KB articles, and Helpers can edit published ones (neither can publish new or with changes). Unfortunately, I don't think anybody at LL is maintaining the KB at this point. There are 22 Forum posts nominated (I won't comment on the judgement used in some of the nominations...) and 1 approved (which I cannot see? "Sorry, unable to complete the action you requested."), so I fear that any draft articles would just sit there. Hells Bells, it looks like I nominated an Age Play thread, and some others, which I most certainly did not!!! I do remember a menu popping down, but did not think I'd clicked on it. (I obviously have co-ordination issues.) Good job no one acts on these nominated threads! Thanks for pointing it out, Griffin. I'd never been over to that page before. Now I've just got to go un-nominate the threads I apparently nominated. Gad!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amethyst Jetaime Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I think the Linden strategy now is akin to tossing up 10K ants towards the ceiling in a small room. A few of them might just land in the cup of water on the floor and learn to swim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many poor little Noobies die off in a hostile environment while one survies to become a full-blown Resident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
