Staff Forum - Is it active/do you talk beyond the forum?

"Free Flowing" chatter - it's a thing of beauty.

 

Free Flow Is Good

 

Our staff forum isn't that active, but it's just two of us, after all. At the moment, we only talk about website-related stuff, nothing off topic. Though I suppose it wouldn't be a bad idea...

 

Same here.

My staff forum at Setsou Design is completely empty - me and Nei keep in touch through Windows Live Messenger and at Bird is the Word, we only talk about site editions, etc.

 

I only have one staff forum at my design site because, well, I don't have any staff

At vBulletin FAQ, we have an admin forum for me and my co-admin, Joey, and a mod forum for all of us to talk in. The mod forum is pretty busy, actually busier than the public forum lately. We talk about the forum and off-topic stuff. I don't really see the need for an off-topic forum.

 

On a scale of 1 to 10, how embarrassed would you be if your staff section accidently went public? (Not necessarily embarrassed, but how worried would you be about all your members seeing you and your staff talking about them (maybe in a bad way)/acting silly?) Be honest!

 

It depends. I'd probably be quite embarrassed, though - I'd give myself an 8.

 

Not much. We talk about the site more than we do about anyone on the site.
And of course, I flirt alot. I'd say a 4.

 

Ah, the flirting. I can only imagine...

 

No, you really can't.....

 

Hmm... It depends on what forum. For my Linnie forum, I'd say about a two. We don't do much chatting (if any at all) about members... just things that are going on, events, contests, etc.
I would say just one, but I added another point since I'd be embarrassed at the mere fact that I'm dumb enough to make such a mistake.

 

I don't think I'd be very embarrassed at all, because nothing really goes on in there. I'm pretty sure there's only one thread about a member, the rest is all just business related. I think the best part would be members finding out what it's called... :p Anyway, I'll go with a 2.

 

1 - - at Setsou Design, nothing is in the Staff Forum.

At Bird is the Word, only a thread "Alright" is in the staff lounge. It's a mixture of site edition and off topic chat.

 

A picture can describe it more. Would you say they were active?

 

Heh, the "Moderator Lounge" looks like it is (fairly) active, no?

 

It looks fairly active to me, too.

 

Most the posts are simple and short though.

 

I have a solution: hold a staff forum party.

 

ha now there's a good idea ^

 

We're holding one here at AA right now, actually... :wiggle:
