Staff Response Thread?

[Naota]

I've been thinking for a long time about how I think It's silly that the staff don't have a thread which they can check for things needing to be answered such as training/bios things like that.

The users can post the links there instead of pming them directly. That way if they catch someone logging off it gets answered faster.


Thoughts?

a long(ish) time ago we had something similar to this albeit unofficial. kaizu put it together but apparently it didn't last very long (linky)

so i'm sure there could always be a new unofficial one for the people willing to keep an eye on it. it might have just gotten lost in the pages, so it'd most likely just need to be pinned in nfrp ooc instead.

I meant it as in make it a more mandatory thing to streamline the process of getting things done.

At the moment you can pm staff and most staff will continue to review threads that they have already posted in, as the "Participated" button alerts us to a new post.

My concern with a mandatory list etc, is if everyone has to use it the thread will presumably get a lot of traffic, and how do we differentiate between things that have been done and things that haven't been? Move posts after they have been graded etc?

By all means, use the current unofficial thread, or continue to pm staff.

If Assistants were given power to delete posts then they could just delete the posts in the please post thread to keep it free of clutter.

So this has been requested multiple times. The reason it's never been made is due to multiple factors. For one staff are supposed to be dedicated to a few areas to ease off tension. Another is it's just more simple to get PMs through. having a thread, just who knows how long it'll take before it gets checked. It's not a perfect system but we do prefer PM. I can make one as a test, but I just don't know how well it'll be used.
