Quanta Website - What is Missing
Posted: Sat Dec 07, 2013 8:01 pm
OK, following the new Quanta website maybe we should discuss what is missing from it and what could be added without too much trouble to help new and prospective Quanta members...
From my point of view what is missing is the information in the old Quanta welcome booklet (as this does not appear to be sent out to new members any more)...
a) A copy of the Quanta Constitution
b) The Library Guide in some form or other (even just a simple zip file for people to use on an emulator).
c) What new members can expect from Quanta - ie how long they need to wait to get acknowledgement of their membership - when the magazine should be sent out, is membership still back-dated to the start of the financial year etc.....
d) How to get a hold of copies of the library !
e) The Helpline should have a separate page - maybe some old Helpline questions and answers and a dedicated form (there is no Helpling in the Contact Us page).... If a non-member uses this form to ask a question, then that provides an opportunity to promote Quanta membership to them and explain that the helpline is only for members to use. Otherwise they could be pointed to the QL Forum...
