| === Is there a method for responding to posts that have very similar or common problems? === The tracker system now provides this with the help of a Firefox extension; see below for more information. === What is this tracker I am hearing about? === The tracking system is used internally by the team to help keep statistics on topics on the forums and to provide a convenient bug-style tracking system to request help. If you are on the team and would like an account, please contact any of the following members: * [[http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=90021|jacobmp92]] * [[http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=161604|kidders]] * [[http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=171134|ajmorris]] You may also drop by our IRC channel (#ubuntuforums-unanswered on irc.freenode.net) and request an account. New members will have their accounts created upon approval in the future. See [[http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=475327|kidders' proposal]] for more information. == Misc == === Who is this "uab"? === ''uab'' is a topic tracking bot that integrates with the online tracker service. It works very much in the way that ''ubotu'' does with bug reports. It also has some easter eggs buried in it, if you are up for finding them. ''uab'' can be found idling in #ubuntuforums-unanswered on irc.freenode.net. However, the bot service code is currently being rewritten to better handle topics, and so service may be halted at any time. |

The Team
What is this team for?
The Unanswered Posts Team is a specialized team here on the forums dealing with one thing: Topics with zero replies. (aka. empty topics.) The team goal is to try to answer as many unanswered posts on the forums as possible, dealing in subjects ranging from installing Ubuntu to configuring video cards. The less empty topics there are, the better. We don't want users to go away from the forums thinking that no one cares about their topic or problem.
What makes this team different from the Beginners and Hardware teams?
The Beginners team will specialize with posts in Absolute Beginner Talk, and the Hardware team will deal with anything relating to hardware, such as wireless, graphics cards, etc. The Unanswered Posts team will overlap in both areas, as needed, and will collaborate with the Hardware and Beginners teams whenever necessary.
What can I get for being on the team?
The main thing you get for joining the team is a sense of pride. Your support on the team is valued on the forums, and the people whose questions you answer will be grateful for it.
