Would you like to be a Board Guide and help MSE?

note3

I'd be happy to have a go at being a board guide.
My preferences would be:
- deaths, funerals and probate
- house renting and selling
- budgeting and bank accounts
- praise, warnings and venting
- ebay, gumtree and so on
- motoring.

I've listed more than 3 as I didn't know which boards you need help on and I regularly visit these.

Westminster

Since ditching Facebook 6 months ago I find myself with significantly more time on my hands!

Happy to help out wherever, although I am almost exclusively active on the Essential Money section.

I frequent the following most frequently:

1. Credit File & Ratings
2. Credit Cards
3. Loans
4. Mortgages & Endowments
5. House Buying, Renting & Selling
6. Debt-Free Wannabe
7. Mortgage-Free Wannabe

Happy to help and often online at unusual hours due to travelling extensively so should be pretty sharp with all those lovely furniture spams we all love so much.

Volunteering is much easier from home.


The forums i frequent the most :


1) Energy

2) Disability Money Matters

3) Discussion Time

I would happily be a spambuster, deleting spam from any board (especially as I am likely to be on a lot between xmas and New Year and usually end up reporting spam anyway so I may as well delete).

Is it possible to just be a spambuster rather than full board guide at the moment as I can't do full boardguiding right now?

Do the board guides have any additional influence with the official Forum Team / reporting team to support regular users who have or are being unfairly mass-reported by a clique?

If so, I'm happy to volunteer*. Else, I'm giving this a wide berth.

*Arms, Families, Mums, UK Holidays, Grabbit - my usual haunts.

BG's are totally seperate to forumteam , contact to them is the same for me as it is for you


we are subject to the same rules as anyone else

RavenRae

I would be happy to help with

* Competition Time
* Quick! Grabbit while you can
* It's Gone, but was it any good?

I'm happy to help out - it's gone but was it any good and green fingered money saving are the two boards I frequent mostly but I also go on the employment, health/beauty, marriage and relationships, praise, vents and warnings and consumer rights boards.

Would that it were ... I know people who have been victims of what you describe. I can only assume the forum team are too busy to be able to properly investigate reports, so they take the easy way out and accept the reports at face value based on the number.

Other than a general sense of well-being, of giving to the community, what benefit is there to being a board guide?

Parking, Consumer Rights, Praise/Vents and Motoring are where I mostly frequent pretty much daily.
