    Hey guys,

    So we have a new noclight for the new members and also to catch up with some of the more established nocs.

    Anyone can apply...you just need to say you want to do it.

    Its basically a Q and A session within a thread over a couple of days. Its a fun way for everyone to get to know each other and to ask those burning questions we all want to know. Like what was Few's old username.

    If someone asks, you answer. Thats all there is to it :)



    ALSO if there is someone you think is due to be in the noclight (1st time or again)...nominate them and we will see what we can do.

    Yes, you've guessed it, yet ANOTHER activity rolling out here (well, if its popular)

    As you may have seen on other forums (Fitness, Tats&piercings etc) there is a type of thread titled "In the well".
    Basically, a regular is asked questions on a thread, about various subjects.

    Now, since we are a loose social forum, with many different roles and purposes, it wont be question on specific subjects.

    But we wont be having it at random. first of we are going to vote for people we want to ask stuff. then, with their permission, a thread will be opened for a short period of time, and questions can be asked there.

    It can be Nocturnal (Whats your fave Noc activity, fave thread, fave sig etc) or not (what is your favourite food, how much net stuff do you do etc etc)

    so, this will be the prototype thread, anything unclear or confusing can be asked, and people you want to nominate for being asked stuff can be nominated here.

    ok, Nocs, BEGIN!

    Sign me up.

    We used to start on Sunday evening, run ~ 3 days, that seemed to work pretty well in terms of people being available etc.

    We could start one this evening, if cleverusername (or indeed one of the others) is up for it?

    You have three days to answer the questions :)

    /pretends not to notice Freudian pun opportunities

    :cool:

    SUN, it doesn't really, no-one is expected to be available 24/7, but if Links is around for the evening, and as there seem to be a fair few people around just itching to throw questions, maybe we might go with her this week? :)


    [Pter, would you like to intro / launch the first one so?

    And fair play for compiling the archive above, btw]

    Nomination surely doesn't work when this is a voluntary process? If the person nominated wants no part in it then you'll just get three days of silence :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Yeah but nominations and refusals are a better system than just waiting for volunteers. This way people will know others are interested in them and might feel more comfortable about joining in.

    But we've already got months of people lined up and it's only been a few hours. To counter I'd say this is a way of forcing people who aren't comfortable with it to refuse, openly, in public. Some users like to blend into the background, that's their way, let the users who want the attention seek it and the others can continue to enjoy the forum :)

    Nominations have to be accepted, otherwise no thread ... they're really only a "here, would ya?" as far as this is concerned.

    Easy, lads! ;)

    just an observation, don't really see a reason this should only be one noc at a time. sayin s'all :cool:

    Um ... there isn't an absolute, can-not-be-changed rule really.

    We've tended to do it that way (as have other forums who do similar) because otherwise you tend to use up the potential victims guests too quickly ... 'tis a finite pool.

    However, if people feel there are good reasons for making a change .... ?

    Because people take turn to be in the spotlight for three days. Spotlight, Noclight, geddit :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,598 ✭✭✭boomkatalog


    Less confusion if its one? Plus, more attention for the noc :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,964 ✭✭✭ToniTuddle


    Yeah it's better to have one at a time me thinks works better that way. Noclight suppose to really just focus on one person at a time.

    I'll nominate myself then so ye can slot me in after whoever was the last one :)
