Check the bottom two replies.

Ok so there's not much Information to work with but come on.

I don't have anything against the two members and I know I'm not the best person in the world to answer eHelps too but please at least try. Also If you struggle on a topic why not leave it for a more experienced SL?

Considering one of them has only 32 days active, what the hell was running through that mods mind?

I guess the point of this is why post a reply which has literally got no help at all in it? Also I'm sure we have more members on the forums who could do better.

/Rant.

Yeah I'm not saying isn't is amazing, I'm trying to say that how can you become an SL for that sort of advice? It looks like point whoring to me

If you see a member continually do it, then PM a Mod.

Graustein is a good member, but that's not really a sufficient reply =\

Check it.
The ehelp was only like, 2 lines. Does that merit an 8 page reply? This isn't a size thing, but... seriously. They only asked two simple questions. "What do I do?" & "Am i obsessive"

Both were answerd, so what's the dealio?

I've always considered the "e" in "eHelp" to stand for "Emergency," so I can see why they didn't write a book.

Also, I think we should reevaluate what belongs in eHelp. I don't think that belongs there.

Remember Bubbles? Promoted to SL after 6 days active? Mods don't really care.

I'd rather bag on the professional for being a copypasta. T'was a guest, but he puts in his usual "PM ME!" bit, which doesn't really fit. Failure, much?

But still 1/2 Lines the other SL's who posted in topic at least wrote a few more.

Well, I see it as the same was as when the first reply to an ehelp is like, well written, and 8 paragraphs... it's intimidating. Does that mean a support leader should not still reply to it, even if it's significantly less than the previous helps? Nah. This is about the ehelped, not the ehelper.

I remember when I got a message from David telling me exactly how to write an eHelp and everything it basically said:

"Don't just answer and give advice on the eHelp, go into detail.  Give different answers for different situations for each eHelp."

I don't know.

Ah well, I guess that's true. Support leaders are supposed to give higher quality responses than average. *shrug*

Short eHelp replies ≠ Short SL app replies

you have the basis of an argument but it's not really connecting.

Briley does have a point though. I am personally not a fan of one lined answers to either posts on here or especially eHelps, no matter what the person typed in their eHelp.  It should be a well thought out answer and not something just typed out in 2 seconds flat.
