I think we should give our fellow technicians some sort of acknowledgement by creating a technician rank that the techs can be a part of. That way, younger users here won’t be rude to or question technician’s posts when they are the ones that know a lot.
Also, we have more technicians here than the DFA ever had, so having such a rank would be practical.
I think it’s a good idea considering how many new technicians have arrived at our forum lately. Of course, no one should treat any user rudely regardless of their experience in fire alarms, but I understand your point.
