I thought I might just give this ago,

Names Tindris, 16, from Sweden, part of the FP Content Team,


Fire Away!
 
I am from the west of Sweden and yes, I really enjoy being part of the staff team here at FP
 
For a long time I used many different usernames online. Tindris was a nickname that just stuck I guess
 
As you said you left the UK for Sweden, do you consider yourself Swedish or British? 😛
 
Ah! Here is your interrogation topic. So according to your opening post you were on the now defunct Content Team, and you created three articles.

In one of your articles, "Using Social Networks to benefit your site," I notice that you mention RSS. That reminds me of one forum administrator who created a private forum where he managed to get several feeds related to his forum niche to populate it, so that he may sift through it, choose those that interest him, and create a topic using that story or idea as his base from which to add his own commentary to. This is one way of using RSS that I was introduced to well after being familiar with it.

That said, what about the examples you gave of social networks and their benefits has changed, as regard your view of them? I gave an example of how my view of using RSS changed, and I imagine your view of RSS, Facebook, etc may have changed, or there may be more you think should be mentioned in such an article if updated? Relatedly, has your view of the use of social networking in general changed notably since you created your article?

From reading your article "Keeping the Off-Topic Section at Bay," you seem to acknowledge the importance of the off-topic section for discussion, but favor taming it so that there is nearly as much activity in it as on-topic sections. That reminded me of an article by SEO Refugee titled "10 Tips for Promoting Your Forum," specifically the following portion which I assume you agree with entirely?

Allow Off Topic Discussion - Even workaholics don’t talk shop 24/7. Your forum members are no different. Creating a space for your members to blow off steam, tell jokes, and talk about their other interests will allow them to create friendships and unwind. Think of this as a team building exercise. The more your members interact with each other, the more likely they’ll be to visit on a regular basis. They’ll also be more willing to help spread the word about your forum or help improve the community. If nothing else, you’ll gain a few friends in the process. Now who doesn’t want more friends?
As for your articles in general, have you written others besides those published at Forum Promotion, and if yes where may they be read? Which of your articles about forum management are you most proud of writing due to how helpful it is for the readers? On the flip side, which article about forum management not written by you was most informative to you? How long did it take you to write your articles? What other work behind the scenes did you do as a Content Team member. For example, did you help with the drafts of articles written by other CT members?
 
First off, I was only on the content team for a brief period of time which shows how old this topic is. I publish all my articles on creaspire.com where you Can also find an updated version of the socia networking article
 
Hmm, besides reviewing, do you have any other hobbies that hardly anyone knows? Only if you feel comfy telling. 🙂

Have a great day! 😀 Or night. xD

<3
 
I see. If you don't mind me asking, what kinds of stuff have you written? Like fiction, non-fiction.... 🙂
