It is becoming more and more a PIA with all these threads clogging up the MB.
Perhaps all the “student” threads should be placed in a closed section for their use. They should also FAIL the course if they do not post in the threads as instructed by Ben instead of starting new threads they have no intention of returning to.
Attached capture is of the “New Posts” page a few minutes ago… (not showing but is a full page of course threads)…
There is a very very very cool tool out there called FastStone Capture that allows you to take screen captures of an entire web page, create videos, capture sections of a website, and more. I use every day as a professional website developer.
The majority of views are the result of most recent post. Only to discover the post was from a student, posting for the first time, some babble to comply with a course they’re taking.
The # of views to # of posts ratio is higher than any other section. That means inspectors like to look at the images those students are posting. Inspectors like to look at images of stuff found on an inspection. I don’t know why, they just do. Maybe because it’s kind of like being on an inspection.
I somewhat agree with Jeff and Chris.
It looks like idiot babbling to anyone viewing it.
Forum is a bad place for mixing in educational requirement s that are designed only to increase SEO value hits ]at the expense of ruining my enjoyment of idiots babbling.
First: Posting inspection-related images in a forum for other members (including fellow students) to comment on is a legal requirement to maintain many of our governmental approvals.
Second: Viewing inspection-related images on our forum is a popular activity of our membes judging by the views per post ratios.
I vote to let the students post here. Come and get “blasted” by the “oldies”. It is right of passage for all “newbies”. We need JJ and Larson to tell us …please post in the correct forum or did you notice 3 other things wrong with that service panel or what you wrote reads like goobldy goock. I am just trying to point out that we are learning from you! Keep up the great work guys…I appreciate it.
