Suggestion: Emailed Notice for Destination Forum Responses
Posted: Sun May 4, 2008 03:55 PM UTC
I admit, I'm loath to respond to new VTr's Destination questions when I see they just joined that day. I feel so used. They ask, We answer, They never come back. Blech!

I know there is STILL merit to answering their question: the next person who has a similar question, should they research the forum first, could find the answer already there for them.

But here is a thought. Not unlike Craigslist, could VT give members the OPTION to be emailed to their personal email account a "notice: you've received a response to your question".

A) They will see that VT'rs are a caring lot and respond to people's questions
B) Might encourage new folks to log back on!

Please note I said OPTION. It doesn't have to be an all the time thing for all forums... Maybe just Destination Forums... and give them the option.
