I was a mentor once. Then I realized the absurdity of that sentiment.
I've spent entire work days helping out several different new people to learn to turk in PM but I just thought the badge looked ugly tbh.I mean, I'm not a mentor, but I end up answering questions for people anyway. I guess people assume I know a lot just because I've been around a long time.
It was probably me. I sometimes have bad days where I disable things because I don't think they're doing any good. Until next time, I guess.It went down once about a 8-9mos ago, for about a month, until I got someone to fix it. I think it died again on the "hand-over". Not that anything was done wrong but, I think it had something to do with change of admin privs. where some things default(in this case to disabled) on the change.
I could be wrong. All I do know is it was off more than it was on, in very recent history.
Oh yeah, I look back at how long I've been doing this... where did all the time go? lolI've spent entire work days helping out several different new people to learn to turk in PM but I just thought the badge looked ugly tbh.
Not sparkly enough.
I don't think it ever really had the effect that we wanted anyway. It's hard to keep a lot of people on the same page with like preferred methods for helping people and stuff. We even setup a forum for it, but it was only used for a bit. Though, it didn't help that the person that volunteered to run the whole thing just kinda stopped showing up.If I had been around longer and knew more about Mturk and was smarter and could know how to help people and stuff, I could be a mentor.

I should have bothered you guys a lot. Didn't know about the mentor program then... But really I'm more of a figure it out myself guy.Oh yeah, I look back at how long I've been doing this... where did all the time go? lol

Everyone here is generally helpful anyway. Like what@C to the J said above, you don't need a banner for that.
Generally though, if you just ask here, someone will answer, if someone is on that knows the answer lol.I should have bothered you guys a lot. Didn't know about the mentor program then... But really I'm more of a figure it out myself guy.
You stop that. MOAR BANNERS. Banners all day son!If everyone that has helped someone in here got a banner there'd be no space for anything else.
No. Most people were smart enough to realize what I am.I think what@C to the J is saying is, he'll be one if the banner looks sparkly enough. I guess I could to...
Wait,@mboone73, you said you were one? You weren't flooded were you?
If you like warcraft or whatever, Dead Pixels is a hilarious, new British show about a group of hardcore gamers. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7559438/ I don't like games much and don't even really hang with people who do but, I identified with the characters. It's dry wit is on point. An example is to the second episode where the young lady in the group slags off this hipster girl at the bus stop for cultural appropriation. She takes offence at the girls Zelda t-shirt and PacMan keychain. She starts the conversation with...What, you don't like Warcraft or whatever?
Wasted pressing buttons for pennies.where did all the time go? lol
Ok. Have your banners. IDC. You missed the point pops. LolYou stop that. MOAR BANNERS. Banners all day son!
MTurk doesn't make it easy to keep people here. I'm also apparently awful, so that doesn't seem to help either.There's a lot of people who don't show up anymore.![]()
