Member Interviews
 

An Idea I have to strengthen the community aspect of the site;

Member interviews.

Threads featuring moderately extensive Interviews of Willing Members posted for all to see and comment on.

Paint a better of picture of the people we are talking with.

I as much as anyone value my anonymity online but I don't see something like this as an infringement.

It's a raw idea, any thoughts guys?

Maybe do a mock post in here to gauge the effectiveness or merits. Sounds OK in principal. All depends on the questions asked I suppose.

The Saturday Six Pack has worked quite well so maybe this is worth a shot.

But yeah, a mock post would be good, just to see what we're dealing with.

I think it's a great idea

Ideally you'd pick an interviewer (not always the same person) and an interviewee. They'd set up an IM discussion and post the transcript, or a least the highlights of it.

I feel the IM is necessary to get quality follow-up questions.

I'd volunteer to be on either side of a trial run.

Wouldn't it be better to do it live on here?...

In the Lounge for instance?

I suppose yes it would.

Up to you JJ...it's just a thought.
Like make a thread and then advertise a time and day as to when and who it's with...

Ignore me...I didn't read that ^.
You're probably right.

I'm free for the next 2 weeks :cool:
