Not Founder anymore

I used to be a Founder member, but now my name just displays as Zoe_1. Could this be changed back please?

Re: Not Founder anymore

My understanding was that a Founder was someone that had been a member for many, many years.  Looking at your profile, I would have to guess that your Founder title has been corrected to Adviser.

Re: Not Founder anymore

Hi:

 

The label "Founder" was bestowed to "veterns" who had contributed or been a member of the ITRC or BSC for "some time" as I understand it.  This label, like "Admin" (for HP folks) and "HP Alliance" partners is different from your rank:

Your community name suggests that perhaps you had multiple accounts (i.e. "Zoe" and "Zoe_1").  You could ask one of the moderators to investigate further if you think that this is the case.  Post your request here:

Do you remember when was the last time it had that?  It seems you last posted in Oct 2010.

The ITRC migration was at the end of June 2011, did it change because of that?

Would you class 20 years as many, many years? I was a member of the Alpha Project which as far as I know is where we got the Founder label so no, my Founder title was not corrected to Adviser.

Thanks JRF but your moderator link gives me an unexpected error. Could you give me another link to a moderator?

Re: Not Founder anymore

Not sure when it changed as I've not been spending a lot of time on forums lately. I went through the whole Project Alpha changes and used to get direct emails concerning any changes to the website. I'm sure it was still there in Jan or Feb 2011.

Re: Not Founder anymore

There was a rank called "Founder" in the old HP Software and Solutions Community, before they came to join the Enterprise Business Community. There is also a rank called "Founder" on the Enterprise Business Community, but the requirements are greatly different for the rank now than it was in the Software site. Many of today's Founders have been participating in the forums since the early days of the BSC and ITRC. 

 

We are grateful to the members who have participated in any of the projects in the past (e.g., Alpha), and to those of you who come here every day and share your knowledge and experience with your peers. Without all of you, there is no Enterprise Business Community.
