>>Perhaps: willing helper with busy fingers ?
Ditto. As most of us with more than a few posts are.
>>Plenty of people still seem to disagree with Charlie, bordering on disrespect at times.
I share your concern. Probably because they don't know who he is.
After all, how long can he take punches like that from the do-the-work-for-me-for-free-and-i-give-nothing-back-and-dis-you crowd before he just gives up. To his credit, and the rest of the team, I would given up a long time ago.
>>I was probably trying to promote some respect generally and hoped that future readers will spot & take note of the post.
I agree. What we need is:
-official order & ranks for those that pass the test
-a forum mod (whoever that may be) to create a sticky post for a CODE-OF-CONDUCT.
-a closed forum for the higher ranks, so we don't have to deal with endless task of weeding through questions that are already answered (if I see another "how do i access server-manager"...)

AFAIK, that list is defunct. Even if it weren't, it would need to be duplicated around here as it's buried in an off-site. If it isn't obvious at the point of need, it isn't helpful.
Also, I was playing devils advocate. Ray's top-notch, so is his donated work. I was just making a point (although to be honest, I did think he had some special title).
The point being if we (& the info) were organized correctly we could work as a team more efficiently. I've seen too many excellent projects die because of a lack of this.
