Do the Administraters ever ask for help?
Hi,
I have been questioning for ages but can it be possible for an Administrater to ask help from the Members and the Real Members? I have been reading all the posts but not even one administrater has even asked for help.

Hi,
We work together and communicate.
It is teamwork.
The hierarchy is not important.
Helping members is.

That is an interesting observation. I guess this either means that the administrators are not really hunting problems in the wild, or that they do not believe that members of this forum will be able to help them in what they need help with.

Hi,
The Administrators have done a commendable work for all these years.
There have been great contributions apart from MathsIsFun himself and other Administrators for years, this can be verified.

Definitely not so! I've had help over the years and sometimes I learn new things while I'm helping someone else (see car racing for example).
Admin aren't chosen because they are good at maths but because they want to help, have the time, are responsible and patient, and have thick skin.
My longer term project is to master contour integration so that I can solve a very old, and never solved, problem.

That is interesing. I am glad that the administrators have a growth mentality and are trying to learn new things. This certainly makes for a great morale in this community.
