This is great idea Omni.

It will probably increase the quality of posts on HackForums. Also, userbar looks very nice and professional. 🙂

There should be one mentor to each staff member kind of like an aide.
Also the people helping that particular staff member should have to be approved that they can work with one another.

[Braco Asshole]

And I think MENTORS should be appointed per Forum Section. If a mentor knows about hacking, he should be in the hacking area, If a mentor wants to help members with their problems Feedback section.

I disagree. He is saying this would make a good start for you if you would someday like to be a Staff member. I agree with him.

Well true but don't you think just having that in their is going to make a lot of people join just for the fact they could possibly become closer to staff.

The main reason for staff should be to contribute back but anyways i agree and disagree with keeping that there tbh it only effects signups.

There's a fair bit of ass-kissing in this thread.

It makes things funny.

Nice idea.
Now I am starting to understand why you denied my suggestion earlier. You like having groups that help the forum more then just cause havoc.

@ d4rktrooper788
Well this is not just for people to find threads and to understand the rules.
It's to help keep the forum more organized I guess you can say, but also what you said.

Off topic:
About kiss assing.
Just because people are thinking something is a good opinion it makes it kiss assing?
No I think people are just thinking more commonly recently that kiss assing is when you agree with someone more then once.
Maybe omni has a good amount of good ideas?
Sorry but this whole kiss assing stuff is getting on my nerves people are throwing it out there to loosely when most the time its just someone agreeing with someone.

I'd like to think this is usually why suggestions are made? 😧

Well yes but its not like people always get the whole reason when there suggestions get denied.

Some suggestions have good intentions like the one i just posted

[PinkyPinky]

When i first saw this , i thought it was a Mentor for some newbie to teach him some basic stuff, that would involve hacking etc..anyway that is not so important but i do like the idea. Will see how this going to go.

I think the whole idea of having a group of mentors to help out with staff would be a great idea. I also think Braco has a great suggestion on appointing certain individuals to certain "speciality" areas.

All suggestions should have good intentions or else there not a suggestion.
Honestly.
But I won't keep going off topic.
Bottom line is I like this suggestion and it should be applied to the forum.

I also agree with this idea,pretty nice and it would be interesting.

[Omniscient]

Also I think it's pretty clear who understands the rules and who doesn't.

I don't think it is. I see backseat moderation daily and rumors about what's a rule and what's not are flying around endlessly. IMHO it's why I have to actually make clear changes constantly explaining or unexplaining what people are saying.

Mentors would have zero moderator powers.

He should remove better chance of getting staff since that is just encouraging 50 more people to apply.

If I said you should be knowledgable about rules to be on staff would you believe I am encouraging people to read the rules? Seems rather obvious that those in the Mentor group stand a better chance of being on staff. The same actually applies to those in ub3r. Is it a requirement? No it's not but certainly it doesn't hurt your chances. Fact is that most hardcore members eligible for staff are in l33t/ub3r group already.

Well true but don't you think just having that in their is going to make a lot of people join just for the fact they could possibly become closer to staff.

And this is a negative how? As far I can tell this is my actual intent. I see too much backseat moderation going on from people that don't have a clue. At the very least Mentors would have an idea of policies and people could be more trusting of statements from Mentors when it comes to site policies.

Even another idea struck me. I could make it so that if a Mentor reported a post it would get "unapproved" until staff saw the post themselves. Not moderator powers and yet would be very helpful.

Now I am starting to understand why you denied my suggestion earlier. You like having groups that help the forum more then just cause havoc.

Yes I don't see the need to add groups that serve no purpose on HF. Any new groups are going to be created by me and will be for a purpose.

I also think Braco has a great suggestion on appointing certain individuals to certain "speciality" areas.

These are not forum moderators. Their specialty will be site rules and policies.

[Techno]

It think this is a great idea, will surely help people.

[Minus-Zero]

I think this would be a great idea, would cut down on alot of spam and rule breaking hopefully. I would be more then willing to join the group!
