It was a stupid idea that made no sence. It won't be comming back...
in short, many memebrs found it degrading, so we removed them, there for will not be comming back.
why was it degrading? I personally find posting a topic and getting 1 or 2 replies quite degrading too. And like I said before don't focus on past experience. This could be a different plan, it's obviously not going to be the same as mentors. Things change. The members on this site have changed. I just believe something has to be done.
Um, did you even read the topic that i posted? Thats how many felt. Need help? thats why there are mods. They are the mentors for their area. Most will take pleanty of time to help you out. Helpnet will me online soon (sadly) and theres another resorce.
This is the reason why i can't stand this site anymore. People world rather bitch about promblems then go out in the SGs and actually help out. You guys could solve your own promblems, but instead you sit right there in general and sugestions and bitch about things. I see more bitching about stupid things then helping anymore. The Admins can't do anything anymore about this stuff since we are optionless. Maybe we should just do a mass ban of people who complaine about promblems that they could fix on their own? nah, that would label us power hungry. We are lost on what to do anymore. Skye, Adam and I all agree that TH isn't ready for helpnet, we can't just implament a "Mentor" thing, there isn't people to do it. All we have on this site are the mods that work their tails off trying to make sure everyone gets at LEAST one reply, and then there are people that just bitch that no matter what we do we can't please!
Will you guys PLEASE get out there and help and stop bitching. Invite people, advertise TH to people you know online that need help. You guys are what makes TH grow, not the Admins. WE have done our best, and are still trying to get TH out there. The admin is only 4 strong, 2 admins aren't even on really, and we are dealing w/ that. There is a lack of people on this site, we ALL know that.
I'm sorry i just am sick of peoples bitching on this site. its not like we can blink and bam, we have a rush of people. Will everyone just please understand that? The Admins aren't jsut sitting on their ass's watching TH fall to bits. Times are hard right now. Hell, if it was 3 years ago when i first started on this site, and i came on here to see this bitching and things, i would have fled faster then lighting.
My point is, you all need to get out there and help solve these promblems. You guys are what can solve almost all of these promblems, but no one will see that.
I'm done ranting since I pretty much know its falling on deaf ears. Just understand we are trying.

I really can't believe what I'm hearing.
I'm not bitching about this site. I'm trying to suggest a way to improve it cause quite frankly I'm sick of the lack of helping going on. I try my best to help out, give advice, and I have done for a long time. But you get pissed when you bust your own ass to help others and you post your own topic and nobody offers any help. You see more bitching about stupid thing?? Is the lack of replies to people with serious problems just a stupid thing, and I'm just bitching about it? No! It's the purpose of the site. I should have known I'd get shot down in flames for this. I am really in disbelief at your attitude. I can't believe you think we can solve our own problems - I hope I've misinterpreted you - because why else would we be here?
Who cares that we don't have a lot of members? Hire a bunch of them to go around posting replies. They don't have to be amazing but getting replies in is what matters. If I had come to this site now, posted a topic, and got 1 reply, I'd have buggered off by now probably. Have 3 or 4 per topic and you're more likely to stay.
