Did they just accept anyone? One of the replies there was by someone who was active 2 days when she wrote her reply. Another reply is just a full stop.     -- Posted by Maxxie at 11:44 am on May 4, 2008 lmao man those times must have ROCKED .. too bad I didn't know about LW back then =( -- Posted by major at 11:57 am on May 4, 2008 see, and you guys whine about the "good ol' days of support" -- Posted by Aphrodite54 at 11:59 am on May 4, 2008 That was sooo weird! They were on LiveWire for less than 6 days and they're advice was a fullstop! Seriously?! How did that happen? 54 -- Posted by chelseamorgan at 1:27 pm on May 4, 2008 Quote: from Major at 1:57 pm on May 4, 2008 see, and you guys whine about the "good ol' days of support" Honestly. That's ridiculous. -- Posted by Spice at 2:12 pm on May 4, 2008 The eHelp system was new -- no-one was sure of how to work it back then =\ -- Posted by BubbleCake at 4:05 pm on May 4, 2008 Quote: from UnusualOne at 10:12 pm on May 4, 2008 The eHelp system was new -- no-one was sure of how to work it back then =\ Yes, I do know that now. I was talking to an ex-support leader today.   -- Posted by Bagheera at 3:13 am on May 5, 2008 Oh dear. -- Posted by Bud2400 at 3:36 am on May 5, 2008 That's odd. I became a support leader not long after that, in March 2005, and I don't remember the replies being that bad. I'd imagine it would have something to do with the eHelp being new and people still trying to figure how to respond to short messages with few details on there like in the first link (due to the fact that in the serious forum, you could just ask for more information), but the second link wasn't too bad aside from a few replies. Although I do think it's fair to say that the standards for support leaders back then weren't as strict as they are now. -- Posted by nikki at 6:28 am on May 6, 2008 E-help had only just been introduced back then, and you could become a support leader earlier on than now I think. -- Posted by JudeLaurence at 1:20 pm on May 25, 2008 There hadn't been a norm established for eHelp replies at that point, and I believe that it was easier to become a support leader at that time.  There was a crack down on support at some point.
