Interviews

[D.T.]

Hi,

I just thought it'd be more useful if the interviews won't closed threads so that readers could post suggestions / congratulary compliments / ask for further information / etc.

Is there a particular reason they were set up as they have been that I'm missing? Only thing I could think of is the probability of the thread going off tangent, but we have some great mods here

It was decided to have the interviews closed leaving them as stand alone resources, like a regular magazine article for example. Comments and congratulatory messages can be posted in the general forum. There is usually a corresponding thread to the interviews.

As you know threads can easily go off topic. It’s important to have them uncluttered……they will become a very valuable resource for us all.

Stay tuned for the next one........its coming soon!!

I like it closed, the way it is.

User comments could potentially "tarnish" the interviews, in my opinion.

Ruby usually puts on a 'notification' thread saying there's a new interview, right? People can always comment on that thread.

Yep, I like the way it's done already with a closed interview thread and then an open one for the peanut gallery to comment.

What about a link at the end of the interview to a discussion thread?
That way the interview stays uncluttered, but it is easy to find the discussion.

You would have to read the forum to understand mup.

I'm happy the way it is at present....and can understand the underlying logic.

Just love the interviews...keep 'em coming.
