I've been noticing a growing trend on the list for several months now and I'm hoping to start some discussion and perhaps alleviate this particular issue.
As everyone knows we have a fair number of true, guru-level experts that participate in the list and provide a wealth of excellent networking knowledge. However, very often this isn't Cisco-specific and as such is not of much value and it really seems to irritate other members of the list who understand that the only topics worth studying are Cisco-related. To make matters even worse, many of these so-called experts aren't even Cisco certified!! I was under the impression that to be a true expert one must have attained the CCIE certification, or at least CCNP with multiple specializations. How can we trust your advice if you we don't see those initials in your email sigs?? Participation on the list by these sorts of experts, regardless of there vast experience and knowledge, causes excessive distress to certain list members. In order to show more tolerance toward the easily annoyed, perhaps we should consider only allowing CCIEs to answer posts. I'm sure others would agree that this would solve this problem. We must find a way to prune the non-certified from our ranks. Regards, John <---- New Dad as of 4/23 (But don't give me any parenting advice unless you've passed some sort of parenting certification. Thanks.)
