For 15 years, many of our regional forums have been carrying out the “One Question per Day” initiative, which has helped to maximize the popularity of those forums. Some experienced moderators even continued to post content for over 400 sessions – it’s quite demanding, as they have to post regularly every day. But for any good thing to continue to exist, it should follow the right rules so that those who come after can follow suit and thus carry it forward. To the regions that are already carrying out the “One Question per Day” initiative and those that are about to start it, let’s discuss how this initiative should be managed 1. How to score and what is the scoring threshold? 2. Highlight duration and improvement deadline. 3. Is it necessary to turn it off, when should it be turned off, and is it needed to be moved lower? 4. Is it necessary to set it as top priority? We reached a basic consensus, then established guidelines to convey to the moderators below, as well as to serve as a reference for the regions that are planning to carry out similar activities. This thread is open only to Deputy Supervisors and above (Deputy Supervisors and above primarily play a guiding role in the forum; we hope that everyone will share their opinions as well as the rules currently in effect in their respective regions). Additionally, we welcome observations from roving and technical Supervisors who wish to contribute their insights. To be updated 1. Rating: No specific requirements are set for this aspect; the actual situation varies across different regions, and each region should make appropriate adjustments based on the popularity of that region as well as the level of participation in technical discussion threads ; 2. Highlighting: 1-2 days 3. Promotion: It is not recommended to set a time limit for promotion; if a limit must be set, it should not exceed 7 days. If there are multiple daily questions in different sections of the region on the same day, it is advisable not to set any time limit for promotion ; 4. Shutdown: It must be shut down within 5-7 days; it is recommended to carry out the shutdown on the day after ; 5. Sink: Downward movement can be disabled after it is turned off ; 6. Pinning: Pinning is strictly prohibited ; For the daily question, if the answer is included in the post, it should be set to hidden so that only the author can see the reply
My personal opinion: 1. How to score and what the score should be: My current score might be a bit high; let’s discuss this among everyone. (It would be great if a limit on the number of times each person can reply could be set.) Currently it is 2 Wealth involved, with 9 Wealth being correct. 2. Highlight deadline, upgrade deadline: Highlighted, but no upgrade. The display time is one week, after which it turns off. Highlighting serves as a reminder. 3. Is it necessary to shut it down, when to do so, and is it needed to be lowered? One question per day; no improvement, not recommended, no lowering. 4. Is it necessary to pin it? : Cannot be pinned.
Regarding the daily question, each region has its own management. Rules for posting [Daily Question] in the Machinery Section (draft, for discussion) http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-1512396-1-1.html (Source: Haichuan Chemical Forum) 1. I think the rules in our section are quite good. 2. Highlighting deadline, submission deadline – highlighting is fine, but there’s no need for a submission deadline. 4. Is it necessary to set something as the top post? Personally, I don’t think it’s necessary to make it pinned
1. How to score and what the score should be depends on the actual conditions of the region. In our region, the required scoring for layout alignment is on a scale of 1 to 5. Post rewards are given to moderators who actively post. 2. Highlight duration and expiration period: There are no specific requirements regarding the highlight duration; generally, each weekly topic is highlighted for one week. Because for the daily topics, anything that is in bold or marked with 【】 is usually very noticeable. 3. Is it necessary to shut it down, when should it be shut down, and is it needed to move it to a lower position? There’s no need to shut it down or move it; the topic can still be viewed by people every day, but some people like to browse old posts and sometimes want to leave comments as well. 4. Is it necessary to pin it? Daily topic – no need to pin it, unless it’s a particularly good one.
Let’s talk about the progress in the Mechanical region: 1. How are scores determined and what is the score range? Our region has always participated in 1-2 Wealth competitions (there are quotas for these); correct answers along with explanations earn an additional 3-8 Wealth points, and a best responder can be selected. 2. Highlight duration and expiration time: The highlighting lasts for 24 hours, with no setting for expiration. 3. Is it necessary to turn it off? When should it be turned off? Is it necessary to lower it? It is turned off after 24 hours; there is no setting for lowering it, and if it isn’t turned off, people will keep posting messages. After it is turned off, it will drop on its own over time. 4. Is it necessary to pin it? There is no need to pin it. The Mechanical Forum has its own guidelines for posting \"One Question per Day\"; for details, please refer to the posting guidelines for \"One Question per Day\" in the Mechanical Forum (updated on 2015.12.16): http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-1515167-1-1.html
1. How and how much to score: It is not recommended to assign high scores; it’s better to give flowers, as wealth is not a problem at present. 2. Duration of highlighting and extension period: 48 hours is sufficient for highlighting. 3. Is it necessary to turn it off, when to do so, and whether it needs to be hidden: It should be turned off within 1 week after completion. , there is no need to sink it. 4. Is it necessary to set it as the top post? : It’s possible, but a time limit needs to be set; it shouldn’t be too long, at most 1 week. If the time period is too long, there will be too many pinned posts, which is not good

In fact, the amount of points to add, and whether highlighting or moving it to the top is necessary, depend primarily on the quality of the daily question itself. I have always believed that the daily questions in many sections nowadays are too simple; most of them are in the form of question-and-answer formats (multiple choice, true/false, fill-in-the-blank), which aren’t very meaningful. For such simple daily questions, there’s no need to give them priority or special promotion, and it’s necessary to stop offering them on a regular basis. Otherwise, the first page of those sections will be filled with daily questions, which severely hinders normal technical discussions. If it’s not for the need to maintain a certain level of activity on the forum (in terms of popularity and number of posts), I personally suggest putting a stop to the aforementioned simple daily questions, which seem to have become excessive at present. So what constitutes a good, reasonably challenging daily problem? I checked out some old posts from before, such as this previous series on the Safety Zone: http://bbs.hcbbs.com/forum.php?m ... =880496&pid=6401018 Good posts should be pinned, recommended, highlighted, and given priority ; For ordinary posts, just let them sink naturally and fend for themselves ; Posts that severely disrupt normal communication on the first page of the relevant section are resolutely closed on a regular basis and moved to lower locations.
1. How and how much to score: As mentioned by others earlier, it is recommended to determine the score based on the quality of each daily question. If the answers prompt deeper discussions, a higher score such as 8 can be given; for ordinary multiple-choice questions, the score should not exceed 5. 2. Highlighting and promotion deadlines: Whether to highlight or promote items should be determined based on quality. If there are weekly topics that warrant highlighting or promotion, and for the daily topics, if promotion is necessary, it’s recommended to set a deadline of one day – not too long. 3. Is it necessary to hide these items, when should they be hidden, and do they need to be moved to a lower position? It’s suggested to hide them for no more than 2 days; otherwise, they might be brought back to the top by others, causing chaos. 4. Is it necessary to put these items at the top? As mentioned earlier, there is no need to pin it if it doesn’t spark significant discussion
I established this rule in the Safety and Environment Section: http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-1398894-1-1.html; I suggest that management take it into consideration. Regarding the several issues listed, my opinions are as follows: 1. How to score and what the score range should be (automatically score from 1 to 3 based on the difficulty of the question, with the highest score of 3 given for the correct answer). 2. Time limit for highlighting and extended time limit (a week is sufficient). 3. Whether it needs to be disabled, when to disable it, and whether it needs to be hidden (disable it after a week; there’s no need to hide it). 4. Is it necessary to place it at the top? (There’s no need to pin it, as too many pinned posts will appear if questions are posted continuously.)
Let me first share my views on the daily question: it’s not easy to do well, nor is it easy to keep at it, but it’s something that deserves encouragement. 1. How to score, and what is the score? 【Daily Question】In our region, there is only the theoretical section; the moderator of Kangqiao continues to post questions regularly. Our rule is that the top 50 participants will receive 2–3 units of wealth as a reward (in the form of scattered wealth), and those who answer correctly can get an additional 3 units of wealth. Those who provide further explanations for their answers can receive 10 units of wealth or 1 point of charm as a reward; for more in-depth explanations, additional rewards may be given at the moderator’s discretion. 2. Highlighting duration and expiration time: Since the “One Question per Day” activity already draws attention by its very nature, there is no need to set up any highlighting features. For promotion, there are two options: (1) Posts for which the spending has not yet been completed can be promoted at an appropriate time; (2) Posts for which the spending has already finished should be closed promptly, as there is no need to promote them any further. 3. Is it necessary to shut it down, when should it be shut down, and is it necessary to lower it? Of course it needs to be shut down! After it is turned off, it will gradually drop on its own over time; we don’t need to lower it manually. Otherwise, if some people become interested, they might answer all the daily questions in that section, which would result in that section being flooded with posts related to those daily questions, thereby hindering normal communication among posts. 4. Is it necessary to pin it? There’s absolutely no need for it. In addition to the issues mentioned above, I would like to add some comments regarding the setup of 【Daily Question】: 1. As a quick-answer question, the answer should be made visible in the reply so that those participating can promptly know whether their answer is correct. At the same time, the question should be visible only to the original poster, to prevent answer copying among users. 2. 【Daily Question】It can be carried out by spending money, but not to an excessive extent. The top 50 users spend 2–3 units of wealth. By the second day, (1) if the wealth has been fully spent, close that thread promptly, announce the answer, and set the replies to be visible only to the original poster. Repost the 【Daily Question】 for the next day. (2) If the allocated funds have not been claimed, ignore it and simply post the next 【Daily Question】; edit the post only after all the funds have been claimed (by releasing the answer, closing the post, and removing replies that are visible only to the poster). (3) If the allocated funds still haven’t been claimed after a week, edit the post promptly to retrieve the funds, and at the same time release the answer, close the post, and remove replies that are visible only to the poster. In short, the completed 【Daily Question】should be closed promptly with the answers released. Actually, it’s a bit troublesome from this perspective, but in the long run it helps to increase the popularity of this section. When Haiyou sees the daily question and wants to participate to earn rewards without wanting to see the answer right away, they must come to your section early the next day to answer the question as soon as possible~~
1. How and how much to score: For objective multiple-choice questions, the scores should be relatively low (it is recommended to give 2–5 points); The number of essay questions can be increased appropriately (5–8 points is recommended) ; Furthermore, it is also necessary to distinguish between correct and incorrect answers. 2. Highlighting and improvement deadline: For the daily question, it is recommended that the highlighting and improvement deadline be set at one day. 3. Is it necessary to shut it down, when should it be shut down, and is it needed to be lowered? For the \"One Question per Day\" task, it is recommended to shut it down at 8 or 9 o’clock the next morning; there is no need to lower it. 4. Is it necessary to pin it? Popular daily quiz activities can be pinned.
