Community Think Tank; Applications now Open

Mine! Or I will help you not.

On Feb 2 2006 I launched the first Community Think Tank. For several weeks, members of this board provided feedback designed to improve the Community. Many of these suggestions were minor, but their impact on this board was far larger. I have always found that it is important to keep in touch with what it is that the Community wants and the think tank was perhaps the best method toward accomplishing this goal.

It was so successful that I ran the Community Think Tank two more times and also ran a Support Think Tank. Together, the staff and members of the think tank discussed needed improvements to better the board as a whole. It is from the Think Tank that the idea of a Cabinet was formed. However, this failed to accurately represent the members as of the Community as a whole.

That is why the Think Tank has returned. It is now available as a joinable group. To join, you need to perform two actions:


  • Go to Preferences -> Update Profile -> Joinable Groups and select Request Approval And in a couple of sentences (3-5) just explain why you want to join and how you think you can help.
  • Send a Personal Message to me.


Once you've been approved, you'll see a new forum at the bottom of the board labeled: "Community Think Tank"

I and the rest of the staff look forward to hearing from you.

That's a really good way to get the community involved. I have a lot of ideas, but am new to the community so I doubt it would be worth applying.

Any idea as to when applications will close or will it probably be once enough ideas are gone through to get the community going?

No closing time at the moment. And the first Think Tank idea has been launched: http://if.invisionfree.com/topic/5042417/

It seems that the Think Tank has slowed down a little over the past few weeks.

That's a shame, as it started out really good; and has the potential to be better than previous years.

If you have an idea for the community, even if it's small, do join us and share the idea. Who knows; we may expand on, and implement, it into the community. :)
