From ASCIIrider Hailey: Only thing I can point out is the 1:1 question/answer ratio. That only should apply with a complete or correct answer as some may give wrong info, thinking it's correct. —The preceding unsigned comment was added on 02:13, 17. Jan. 2008 by ASCIIrider Hailey
*Comment From Kitty Tandino*
I think this is a good step foward..
A Q&A channel would be alot better then people spaming main channel
"Mentors can join if they wish to help and those who don't want to don't have to"
:D i will love to see where this all leads :D! Heres to one more Step foward!!!!!
WooT!

I am invited to the group at 01/16/2008, and I hope that this group will be kept to the elite of the Mentors, so that Group Channel Spamming is kept to a minimum, and no-nonsense.
I am pleased to be one of this group.

I am slightly sceptic as to the impact of this on the general mentor population. Right now, I tend toward the position that anything less than a mandatory membership by mentors (or just turning the mentor channel into a q&a channel) will not be widespread enough to be effective; however, I'm keeping an open mind and the testing shall give more info.
Also, a 1:1 ratio will not be effective; some answers will be wrong, others may require elaboration or explanation as to the why; without the reason *why* something is behaving the way it is, the q&a channel will miss its target of educating newer mentors.
