WA rank seems to be evasive!

Hi, guys!

I rarely post here at WA because whenever I going to post I falling in doubts that I'm going to create another spam and waste a good time of people who are going read it. But, sometimes, I overcome my doubts. I guess, that's the time :).

Here at WA, we all have our ranks. The basic conception of rank is pretty much clear- the more you participate in various ways- the higher your rank is. Some high-ranked people clearly gained their ranks by contributing priceless trainings and tutorials to our disposal. Thanks to them, as long as to WA founders and admins, we are learning our trade. Their support and answers allow many of us to begin figuring out ropes of Internet marketing. This is what made me choose WA and stick with it.

On the other hand, the high rank doesn't necessarily mean that the one who bears it is a top producing marketer (although, I believe, in most cases they are). Sometimes, I observe that people are advancing in rank by posting their daily progress reports and sharing their thoughts about non-marketing subjects.

I love the WA community as-is and happy with the opportunity, that I can make this post and, probably, someone will read it. After all, it's like an additional exercise of our publishing skills.

But I think the contribution to the community of this kind of posts (including this one) is not equal to those, who are really teaching others. Please, don't take an offence,if you might take it personally. I'm not trying to start the revolution. But in my opinion, it would be fair to credit higher our training contributors as long as people who answer our questions and helping us to find ends. I understand people, who add {please do not reply if you don't know the answer" when asking their question. There are a lot of times you can see "Sorry, I don't know" answers.I'm not making the judgement if that is spam or not, but it's annoying. I have a feeling that many will agree with me on that (and maybe I'm wrong).

I don't have skills to teach others here yet. I hope the day I can share some value with you is not far. But at the moment, I believe that WA ranking system may use some correction to benefit our teaching contributors more.

It was a long post. Thanks for your patience. All the best, WAer's!

Kirill.
