A new rule to help our calc group members?

So should we just mention something like this then?

"Try our request threads first, and if that doesn't work, ask a few of our calc group members directly, but please focus on ones that have not already received a lot of such requests recently."

So would something comparatively simple such as this be fine to add to a VSB wiki rule page and our calculation request threads?
 
Tho, it is the same as mines, but without any time limit. Seems reasonable and intentionally vague to avoid conflicts, I think. I hope I was being helpful here.
 
Okay. Thank you for the replies. 🙏

In which section of which rule page should we place the text?

I tried to handle it:

Do we need to update the page in question based on our current standards? It had not been edited since 2017.

Thank you. I have done so. 🙏

I was referring to the wiki page in question though.
 
Thank you. 🙏
 
Okay. Thank you for helping out. Please explain the before and after changes though.
 
Thank you. 🙏
 
Thank you. 🙏

And what do our calc group members here think?

As the father co-parent of this beautiful page, I agree.

A bump once every 30 days seems excessive to me (if it has been a week+ I'm probably never looking at it), but I imagine each CGM can implement their own policies regarding that on their own walls if that is their wish.

So, should we reduce the bump time to something less than 30 days, such as 14 days/2 weeks, instead, or are our rules fine as they currently are already?

Two weeks seems fine, anything past that, then the group must either be swamped beyond belief (which I haven't seen outside of site-wide revisions), or they simply aren't doing it.

What do you think about this?
 
Not that it helps or bothers if the "staffs" are busy IRL or got their "calculation / evaluation / research / revision computer" broke down or outdated.

This - to the request makers however - may help ease their anxiety but not by much until their requests are responded, resolved or rejected.
 
Well, the main issues are if it is manageable for our calc group members and avoids too much spam.

Manageable and reasonable amount would be 14 days (always set a middle of highest and lowest possibility)
 
What do the rest of you think about using 14 days instead of 30 days between bumps?

I think that's a better number, aye. The general populace ought not to worry about bumping once in awhile solely because a few people overwhelm us.
 
Okay. Thank you for the reply.

So what is the tally here so far?
 
Pretty sure I also assented my vote here months ago. I'm indifferent on being personally messaged for calculation evaluations as long as the ones sending me the message are people we calc members personally know or they're staff members.
