Since the membership has grown so much and people many people are subbed to dozens of topics I am wondering if its feasible to ad a tagging system similar to XDA that would allow people to tag a member when they may be needed for comment on a certain topic. I am really just bringing up the idea because it would convenient however has potential for abuse. Im sure @SRGRU would get pinged all the time along with some of the other members. On top of that Im no sure how hard it would be to integrate it into the system. Anyway I just thought I would bring it up and get some comments on it.

I think this would work for approximately 5 minutes, and then it would be eliminated due to how overwhelmingly annoying it would become. Robert is already inundated with tasks and responses and PM's.... I am sure. To have any of the major contributors to this forum constantly tagged would be like giving ice cream to children. ME NEXT ME NEXT ME NEXT. Not to mention if notifications work correctly on their mobile devices, the battery life would cease to exist.

 

Sounds good in theory, but I don't think it would be practical for a forum like this.

While Robert has the final say, I don't think this will work as one hopes it would. Besides the reasons jamisonshaw pointed out, if a member posts in a thread, they most likely are subscribed to it and could get a notification. For those that haven't or find it bothersome getting swamped with emails, a simple pm can suffice to draw their attention.

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
