We hadn't disabled your account in November - we did that at the beginning of the year for accounts that hadn't been used in a long time.

No - but we have only had a handful of people try to come back to a dead account and we just deal with them on a case by case basis.

Correct - we disabled all the accounts that weren't active when we made the decision to focus on larger customers. We didn't notify accounts because we didn't want people trying to game the system by artificially creating imp

It's not advice at that point though - it's essentially brainstorming. I can't speak intelligently about if something is going to work for your startup or not because I have just heard about it 10 minutes ago. I can throw out

Actually it isn't - it's a story about how I learned to better help others. :)

I saw this weeks ago when I thought about posting there and it scared me off - are they saying I was randomly selected to NOT get it for free? That sucks.

One day we will be big enough to need the ability to search for a person! :) I agree on reordering tabs though - you can re-order one tab and then it locks down.

Been using it for an hour or so and haven't run into any issues - what have you found? Just saying critical bugs is pretty unhelpful to everyone.

There is a huge untapped market of people like me who would gladly put up $50 to help you buy a set for your class. Setup a form somewhere and I will gladly donate.

Making a list of 50 things is almost as useless as not making a list at all. Give me a list of 5 and that's useful. The key value in making a list is curation.

The concern is that in the 2 seconds it takes me to type the password in someone will intercept it and beat me to it? This is way safer than email.

Reddit actually has extremely high quality subreddits - it is just the main tags that have degraded.

Most of us actually live in Raleigh so we want to make sure people searching for Raleigh in the thread find us. (from North Raleigh it's about the same time to either Downtown Durham or Downtown Raleigh)

Our bill for ZenDesk would be around $300/month - we have more than 3 agents. (we actually use SalesForce for helpdesk so we pay more than that) For a business if it saves us a support case a week it is worth the $100 a month. Anything unde

Nice article - btw, if you haven't checked out HelpJuice we use it for our KB at Adzerk and it is pretty awesome. ( http://help.adzerk.com ). All the search data is used to create article stubs and reports that help us create better article

Would you rather have 200k followers who see everything you say (twitter) or 1.5M followers who never login and check out what is going on? Simple choice for me. This is also the natural evolution of social networks - when they start the so

Are you confident enough to give your competitors a huge list of your customers. That's what impresses me most about this.

You must be a program manager - you have taken a simple and easy solution and added a ton of complexity for a problem 1% or less of people will encounter.
