Thumbs up Featured Interviews
As you may know, I highly respect everyones opinions.

Today I had a thought. I'm sure most of you would find this rather interesting.

I am thinking about setting up a "Featured Interviews" section, where either weekly or monthly, the staff, or just myself, will interview a selected member based on many types of questions. These questions will mostly be about politics, but will also include off-topic stuff such as "What are your hobbies; Why do you like politics? and so on.."

I think it would be a great way of getting a better understanding of each and every one of us, and I am sure that you would be very appreciative that you were interviewed, and featured by DtT.

I think this would be a pretty cool addition. Yay or Nay??

Seems ok with me, but there are alot of folks that post here that would use any of that information to post in other areas. So you might get some resistance on some of your questions.

I know at least 2 posters that would love to get ahold of my info and some of the others on here. It is childish to say the least for them to do such a thing.. but they will.

This is a completely voluntary system. I would ask a member if they would like to be interviewed...nothing is forced. Questions will also be voluntary. If the member does not wish to answer, that is completely fine by me.

Yay.


Johnathan... offtopic... have you rendered a verdict for adding the 'Vbplayer' software to this site? In my thread about this player, several of our posters were very interested in adding this to the site.

I've looked into it and I'm considering including it within the site. I'm going to do some more research as to how much bandwidth it would take, server load, etc..

I'm pretty much 100% into this.

I love the idea, we could do it over voice chat via the teamspeak system and make it like a weekly mini-podcast. It'd be fun to hear peoples voices...
