Curious about the change in name of this section

Recommended Posts

I'm curious about the motivation for the change of name of this section, and the selection of the new name. For example, it could have been "the hobby" rather than "the business". I may be wrong, but it is my impression that clients probably use the term "the hobby" more, whereas providers probably use the term "the business". Is the motivation, therefore to increase the participation of "newbie" providers in this section, while still welcoming the participation of "newbie" hobbyists? If so, it seems like a good idea.

 

I realize that this is not a burning issue, and it's just a name, but I'm just curious.

I'd guess that the motivation for the change would be to simply reflect the fact that everyone (not just newbies) can benefit on a continuing basis from all the great advice and perspectives to be found in this section.

 

Other than that, I wouldn't read much into it. It is a business after all, and every business relationship includes both supplier and customer.

 

(By my own conception of the term, I consider that true "Hobbyists" are actually a minority of the clients in this business:http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=108716&highlight=hobbyist#post108716)

I am open to suggestions.... I changed it as new members were posting here because they were new ( not to ask questions ) it was confusing to many. I could not come up with the best choice.... how about you all give me some suggestions?

Here are some suggestions:

 

1. A presentation or introduction section for new members to present themselves.

 

2. A sticky or a permanent announcement summarizing the purpose of each section and providing some guidelines on how to choose the appropriate section for a given thread.

 

3. A FAQ question providing the same info as in item 2 above - For example: "How do I determine in which section to post my thread?"
