What is a good reply on NB lounge?

I'm very please to inform that Since our presentation we've receive more Sign-up and support from member of the community. We can see how our objectives are slowly being establish as more members are asking questions and answering therm.

I'll like to take this opportunity to hilight that one of our objectives is to create a community that gives and seek for information that has quality, depth that will be very helpful for other people to learn and understand from.

A few tips to look into what makes a good reply:

1) be very clear in your English. Do not use chat, sms phrase and short forms.

2) If you are giving opinions and other point of view please follow it by references like links to other websites or name of a book, so that people can actually look and research more into your references.

3) Think and research the question you are answering. Research makes alot of different between a quality information or just an opinion without any backing or facts/ figures.

4) imagine if you are the one asking the question what would you like to see in a reply that you will really be satisfied and pleased with.

5) cover all possible angle when you answer a question. not just your point of view.

Using a system like this will not only be useful for members on NB lounge, but it will allow members who are replying to questions to expand their knowledge while they are answering questions on the site. Researching beyond just your point of view, is the key that will expend the quality and depth of your answers and you can use this way of looking at things for anything that life throws at you. This is what every school and every company practices. The ability to be resourceful.

So we hope that our valued members will try it out. You can also attempt to answer questions which you think isn't relevant to you by researching. You will be amazed at what you can find.


With that, i wish everyone well, and a happy weekend using our website.
