How do I know which nicks I need to enter when the names arenā€™t always the same at the discussion board and the VIKI channel/movie page?

Hi! I guess you didnā€™t understand very well the purpose of this. You can nominee the user (must be QC, moderator, editor, channel manager) that you think is deserving to be a Featured QC. Someone who made an impact on you, as Viki says. Itā€™s not suitable to choose a random name from a page.

I think you donā€™t understand my question.

The link you posted says ā€œmembers that did have an impact on youā€ plus add userā€™s name (own and QC in the box).

BUT you donā€™t necessarily have the SAME user name here and at VIKI page. You donā€™t even have the same achievements & badges here and there.

Even though it seems that one can change the user name at VIKI, it is not possible to change a nick for the discussion board (maybe itā€™s bugged?). Or with other words: one may have changed the nick at VIKI page but will keep a different nick on discussion board.

So again:

Which name do I have to use, the one from discussion board or the one from VIKI pageā€¦?

Hi again! The Id from Viki page, not from Discussion.

What is the difference between a featured QC and a regular QC?

A regular or gold QC is chosen by our suggestions and selected by a panel of Viki staff to become featured (highlighted) just once. It means the person will be put on the blog/community page or first page and there will be a short portrait and interview or something like that. Itā€™s just for a short period, then there will be another featured person. Just as they have featured teams every week on the front page.

There are so many QCā€™s of whom I think should be featured for their amazing work on Viki. So to me 3 or 4 is a bit less or is Viki going to do this every month/ few months?

Hi @dudie,

That is correct, weā€™re aiming to do this every few months! As you said, there are so many wonderful volunteers, and we want to highlight them. This first feature is for the summer, and the aim is to have the next one in the fall/winter, as stated on the Viki blog. Hopefully, this is something we can expand on in the future as well!

Best,
Camille

Oopsā€¦ I was going to nominate a few volunteers Iā€™ve worked withā€¦ :pensive:

I thought May 31 is the deadline? Itā€™s only 8-ish PM in Central US on 5.31.

It looks like this deadline is based on Asian Time Zone, perhaps Singaporeā€™s? There was no mention and I thought it would be based on PDT (similar to badge activities).

No matter. Sorry to those who are on my mind. I will submit my nominations earlier in the next round. Since I canā€™t ā€˜forwardā€™ any form of ā€˜perksā€™ or ā€˜giftsā€™ to them as an encouragement, I thought such an encouragement would suffice nicely.

Good luck to all who are nominated. Keep up your enthusiasm (responsibly), esp. in the pursuit of (overall) excellence!:kissing_heart:
