The AnswerBank: Your best kept secret?
102 Answers
Morning,
I wondered if we could take a moment to talk about the way you use AB.
I've seen people post a few times that they wouldn't send their friends to AB because they've been using it fairly anonymously for years and, as such, have divulged things they wouldn't share with others in their life necessarily.
So, I wondered, in what circumstance would you introduce a friend to The AnswerBank?
And equally, why wouldn't you? What could we do to ensure that you could use the site as you want AND invite your friends to join in when they need a helping hand (or wish to be helpful)?
Thanks everyone, hope we like the new logo!

I would introduce a friend to AB,to be able to ask questions and join in debates.
However I would warn them to be very careful,not to get involved with the self-
styled hierachy on here.
Once "sucked in" to a thread with them,whatever comments you offer,will be looked upon with contempt,by a certain element,who consider CB to be their
own personal forum.

I like the anonymity. I can't be judged that way, only my persona can.
I think I'd find it embarrassing to appear to enthuse about a social type site anyway. But the idea of someone I know trying to spot me among everyone else is something to be avoided. I suspect I'd be too easy to spot by those who know me as it is. So there is nothing you could do to get me to recommend. IMO your best bet is to try to get those who happen to stumble onto the site, to stick around.
