As I have mentioned before I have done all of this in the past on a different forum. While doing these interviews not one member complained about them. Everybody enjoyed them really. Basically I see this as a way of getting to know some of the forum members better. After all this is just for fun. Oh and as mentioned above any user that decides to go off topic and or flame, spam etc will probably have his or her post deleted.
 
I'm against week two vet, but for Wiired to be interviewed 2nd week

Why should people be better because they been here longer?

I think it should stay 2. Helpful member

When I put down "vet" I meant helpful member. However if it sounds better as putting down "helpful member" I'll leave it as that :D

Being a vet has nothing to do with how long one has been here.

Umm, how does Vet Mean helpful member?

That was what confused me, i was thinking it was a vet only interview, then everyone else would be pushed into being voted for.
 
They do pretty much mean the same thing in this matter. However, if phrasing it "helpful member" avoids arguments, then so be it.

Vet in my opinion means someone who knows the ropes... Someone who is known to help around the forum.. be it by helping new members or older members etc.

Thats my definition of Vet.

Seeing as it has been changed now to "Helpful Member" I don't think we need to continue discussing this. :)

Yeah, it is just a little confusing as 'Vet' is normally Veteran, as in long term vet and have been here a long time, just I do not know how it links in with helpful.
