Opinion: Non-Admins shouldn't be posting solutions.

[WeatherHound]

This is my opinion.

I think that users who are not admins of the board should not be posting solutions to this forum. This leads to wrong solutions and causes more confusion for users.

Specifically user @Whatheway

This user several times has given wrong solutions that the Admins @Ming Chen @kwerner @dudhia have to correct. Also @Whatheway uses this forum as a way to promote their install codes for WRF. This is supposed to be a help forum with EXPERTS not someone pretending to be an expert.

I do not agree. The principle of the forum is a place to help each other, which means the possibility of mistake.

We will agree to disagree then. I just feel that someone who actually is specialized should be the ones giving guidance.

Admins @kwerner @Ming Chen @dudhia @mgduda should make some rules for the board about how and when users give advice. Or make it so that users who claim to be "experts" need to be vetted through some sort of test or training before they are allowed to give suggestions.
