Discussion---Discussion on the assessment methods for team members
Thread Content
Create a section – since sections can, in the backend, have formulas for setting access permissions similar to those used for point calculations; one must meet the requirements set by these formulas in order to gain access. It could be named “Technical Team Members’ Registration Area.” Within this area, a registration post can be used (or a voting post instead, to facilitate tracking). In this way, only those technical team members who meet the requirements can enter. If a member registers once a month and fails to register again (failing to meet the requirements and thus unable to enter), it indicates that they have not met the standards. Bonuses for technical team members are distributed there; those who do not meet the standards receive no bonus. However, there is another issue: it’s difficult to determine periodic metrics, such as online time, which is cumulative rather than limited to the current month, as is the case with the number of posts posted. How can this be solved? Actually, the best approach would be to add a new item called “activity level” to the personal information section, with this value being determined by a formula, thereby allowing an assessment of one’s performance. But currently, the system does not support this. It’s just a proposed solution; there’s no urgency to implement it yet. Everyone can take a look at it
Online time can be ignored or given less importance, while increasing the weight of replies (meaningful answers) and topic posts!
Assessment of the technical team: 1. The assessment of the technical team should be carried out within specific sections; they may be allowed to register in two sections, but it is necessary to specify this clearly in each section. On a monthly basis, an individual must prepare a summary, which is then evaluated by the moderators and super-admins of the respective sections, and salaries are paid based on those evaluations, following the same principles as those used in corporate performance assessment systems. This will appropriately increase the workload for moderators and others, but it will also enhance communication between the technical team and moderators, thereby strengthening cohesion. 2. The cleaner’s method also works: however, relying on formulas is rather rigid, and gaps are inevitable; for example, with an existing Superman, upgrading is achieved by clicking on the webpage. But this way, the workload is smaller. It would also be good to provide the formulas as well, so that everyone can discuss the issue of weights.
Agree with the cleaner’s suggestion; what was said in version t hit the mark. I agree with you. This post was last edited by rgsmdqy on 2008-1-13 at 13:33.]
1. Activity index = K1*hours online this month + K2*wealth gained this month + K3*points earned this month + K4*number of operations performed this month + ...... 2. Assign an inspector to check whether anyone is taking advantage of loopholes in this activity index. 3. It should be technically feasible, but it’s complex; the administrator will have to put in a lot of effort. Last edited by *ou*ngzhe on 2008-1-14 00:23]
A few additional points: 1. When anything is obtained too easily, people fail to appreciate it – it’s a common flaw among humans. There should be a procedure for awarding titles to technical teams, such as assessments, public announcements, trial periods, etc. 2. After obtaining such a title, it is unclear who will be responsible for supervision and guidance, and whether the standards and criteria in place are reasonable and adequate; this seems to be a significant issue at present. 3. Use severe punitive measures such as expulsion or public disgrace with caution. If this is done, it also indicates that there were improperities in the appointment and selection process of the forum members. 4. It is now necessary to identify a few typical cases in order to learn from past mistakes, prevent them from recurring, and help those who are affected. 5. There is now a need for someone to take charge of this task; a few people can be selected for the role, and doing this well will be of great help to the forum.
That’s great; being online isn’t a problem – as long as it’s sent by the end of the month, and the personal information includes the online hours.
Very good; a formula can be established to assess moderators in a similar manner. Assessments are carried out on a monthly basis, and if someone fails for two consecutive months or performs poorly for three months (excluding times when they are on leave), they will be removed from their position. Work index = K1 * hours online this month (》20h) + K42 * number of operations this month + K3 * number of posts posted this month + K4 * number of replies given this month + K5 * amount of premium content..... For the actual calculation, it would be helpful to have a moderator handle the statistics, conduct monthly evaluations, set reading permissions, and determine which specific groups are allowed access. For online time, Friends of Haichuan can handle it; the number of posts can be determined by using personal topics and replies to conduct statistics over specific time periods. Regarding the number of tasks, it seems that Hai Chuan Zhi You He Yi has managed to achieve that; I’ve seen it. That way, there will be no problem. I hope it will be released soon.
I agree with the points raised by engineer sinoeng on the 7th floor. Regarding the first point, I would like to add that, in my opinion, the main reason for the various problems that have arisen since the establishment of the technical team is the low standards for selecting its members, as well as the lack of appropriate evaluation mechanisms. There have been many discussions on this topic, so there’s no need to go into further detail here. A sound plan for the technical team in 2008 is very important; by addressing this issue properly, Haichuan will surely experience another qualitative leap forward.
Can’t the cumulative time for that month be checked in the statistics?
