Thereâs really no need to feel bad about tagging the leaders to close a post. It doesnât bother us in the least.
@Kittycraft - no worries, we wonât get mad reading the post.
For example, sometimes we add tags to sort the forums and make sure the thread gets seen in the right area.
To add clarity, we leaders do not mind being tagged! It helps us close it quicker, and yakes us less than a second to do so. Do not be afraid or feel bad for asking us, its what we are here for!
I usually just edit my title to add (CLOSED) in front of it once I have enough people. Then the post is closed without needing to tag anyone (it also lets people know they canât apply anymore, so I donât have to reject anyone). Tagging the leaders just makes it faster
Okay, before this post I didnât know that adding (CLOSED) to the title was actually supposed to close it, since thatâs never actually worked for me. Thanks for letting me know. I just feel like we should be able to close the topic, replies and everything, that way no one can post comments. And, I get people applying even when it says closed, so theyâre just not checking I guess.
You could also delete the topic which would stop people from commenting and applying, but then itâs gone. Itâs probably new users that donât realize that itâs closed. I understand your frustration, though.
True. I remember when I was a new user I did so much wrong but people were so patient, so I try to be patient with people but sometimes itâs hard because itâs so obvious to me that itâs closed!
yes, please. tagging them multiple times is referred to âdisturbance.â please do keep that in mind, and maybe read through the comments before you tag them.
I completely agree! Not only do I feel like we are harassing the people at ribblr as well as the leaders but I donât see why we couldnât be able to close our own tester calls, or even topics for that matter. I understand that ribblr still has to monitor topics and such to keep the community a friendly and overall kind place, however, I donât see the harm in being able to close tester calls on our ownâŚjust have ribblr be able to monitor it in some way.
It also might be nice for those that have priority testing to be able to input users that are priority which would automatically get accepted. That way, they donât have to go back through and accept everyone that is priority. Almost like a restricted tester call. If all of the people that they have that are set as priority have applied and all spots have been filled due to that reason automatically, then the topic closes. Or possibly have it to where there are a set number of days/hours/minutes/seconds that priority people can apply for before taking any and all applicants.
We have already replied - you can close your own tester calls. The only thing you need staff or leaders for is to close the topics, but you can control how many can apply and close it at any time.
mkay but thereâs literally a few mentioned at the top
if its mentioned at least once, all is fine.
i wasnt just letting you know btw. this is for everyone to know.
just making sure yâall understand
Of course it does make sense. I just read the post as donât tag Ribblr at all and it made no sense. Donât we want the advice? I did not know it was edited after more than one person tagged.
