A Conversation for Volunteer to be a Guru
I am positively dying to help out (again)...

I have just become an ACE, although I am in my second guise as an h2g2 researcher, after forgetting who I was. I was wondering, now that I often welcome people online, people sometimes have questions to ask. I answer them of course, if I know the answer. I was wondering, I'd like to be able to help more people - and think I could manage it. Can I be a Guru as well? If not, I'll understand why, it's just that h2g2 is such a welcoming place, and I want to do everything that I can to help.
Whoami?
Are you guys on your lunchbreak?

Don't blame you . So am I, really. I suppose the difference is that you leave the site during lunch, and we all race towards it and swarm in to see what the is going on!...

Being an ACE and being a Guru are not mutually exclusive. So long as you fulfill the criteria *goes off to look up the rules* I'm sure you could be a Guru...

Yeah. I would fulfil the necessary criteria. Sorry about the triple post, some helpful person clicked my mouse three times in a vain attempt to irritate me...

Hi yes sure you can WhoamI! I'll add you to the Gurus list now, but you won't get your badge for a week or so, we've only just updated, so we need to accumulate a new batch.
Oh and yes I was off having lunch with Mark and Sam. We find tht we get a bit boggle-eyed if we don't take a screen break.
I've just been down to Somerset House on the Strand. Lovely fountains there. Very nice & relaxing.
It must be hard work...

Aww, thanks Whoami?
It's a great project to work on, we all really believe in what the community are doing. It's lovely to have a job you really like doing.

True. There can't be many jobs online where the contact with real people is so important or frequent. Thanks for letting me be a Guru as well.

Great. I'm on the mailing list, but I think I'll stay a bit quiet until I have my badge. People don't believe that you're any type of Volunteer unless you have the badge. Thanks a lot for dealing with my request and getting me on the list, it's nice to be able to help!

...but I am wondering what has happened. I know I am not due a badge until midweek, but I seem to not have had any messages to the gurus to my email. has it just been a quiet day, or am I having trouble at my end?
