This Friday, September 13th from 4:30pm-5:30pm, I’ll be sitting with all y’all to answer any questions you have about the incoming Community software. You can expect some sneak peeks, insights on big changes, answers to questions about the beta tester process, and anything else you want to know!
We are holding back some details until earlier in October, but rest assured: The New Community Is Coming.
Join us, won’t you?
Feel free to post your questions in the comments below. I will return this Friday to answer them all to the best of my abilities, and share a little more to boot!
Will there be stickied threads in community 2.0, so the important or most up-to-date conversations remain available to actually see or is there some other type of way that this is addressed in 2.0? Oftentimes I find myself missing out on conversations or not seeing something until much later because of the consistent movement of topics on the forums.
Also did you move forward with the badge and ranking system that was previously mentioned on the forums? If so, how has that process evolved over time. Look forward to your answers, AJ.
Will we be able to message mods and tell them about concerns we have about how a thread is going wrong?
Will the mods have the power to officially close threads if they have gotten to far off-topic?
Will we receive notifications when we are tagged in a post?
Is it possible to have a more of a social media-esque interface in the community? What I mean by that is our profile expressing what we like dislike, tagging people on here and notifications related to the same. I apologise if I have not been clear but essential it would be nice to receive notifications when someone addresses me directly and that takes me to that comment concerned as opposed to me scrolling through the section to find who has been talking to me directly
. Can our posts emit an aroma of Brut cologne if we so choose?
