I am afraid patience is the key -- they do know of your presence and will respond in due course.

Just to say that it will be 'Industry Expert' if you accepted - not 'Field Expert.'

I do it as a volunteer having been through the whole process but would not want to do it as a profession.

Unfortunately it is just free advice - not always correct but there are a number of my forum experts and industry experts who are there to pick me up - some of whom are friends off forum as well.

FYI I think you need to hit a certain amount of posts to become an expert. I can't remember if it was 100 or 500 when I joined.

The beauty of this forum is that, not only do we have those working in the industry posting, but also those that have been there and wear the tee-shirt !

The "ranking" for want of a better word is based on your knowledge and expertise -- this has to be demonstrated. You also need to show a commitment to help those requesting it.

This forum layout is new to all of us -- having been revamped a few weeks ago. So, I must apologise for not knowing that. :oops:
