Forum Member and Staff Interaction

[Joshua Farrell]

When it comes to how your staff interact with members, are you strict, or do you not have that many rules? Such as members and staff talking in a thread and joking around having fun (nothing inappropriate of course).

I generally love to have fun in most threads that I deem to not be too serious; though there are times I feel like having fun in certain threads shouldn't be tolerated, like discussing major changes that affects the forum userbase.

There should be a line in general to dictate where fun can be had and where it should be restricted, I also like to have fun but I agree with you that it wouldn't make a lot of sense to have fun in some aspect

I do not think that there should be any Strict rules prohibiting forum staff from interacting with forum remembers in anyway because these playful banters are what give the forums it needed vibes and and liveliness.

Members getting in touch with staffs/Admin is normal it makes the forum more interactive, engaging. At least we learn from the staffs through wealth of experience they have.

I think having a section where the forum members and staff can have a nice chit chat can be really helpful for the making the community cheerful, but over doing it can be detrimental.

I also believe that a forum moderator or the administrator should be lenient when it comes to interacting with the members. I find it great that the administrators of the Bizdustry forum are quite lenient and overlook a lots of things. Being a member myself, I try my best to post serious replies that are related to the actual discussion. However, having a bit of chit chat is okay.

I don't own a forum yet. When i eventually do, staffs would be able to interact and joke around with members on my forum. The rules won't be too strict on my forum.
