Position/Division Should be in Signature
I think we should encourage people to list their division/title in their signature. WSO has a few gem posters and a bunch of crap and it's tough for new people (or anyone for that matter) to read critically without knowing the background of who is posting (a good example of this is people talking about their own groups in IBD tend to pump it).
I think a lot of this would be avoided if people just added one line to their sig that looked like this:
BB IBD Analyst
or
MM S&T Intern
I agree. But people could just lie.
Lloyd Blankfein, Chairman and C.E.O. Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
I definitely agree.
Lord Thornberry, Summer CEO KKR - Private Equity
I suppose, but I think we should give people the benefit of the doubt.
Barack Obama President of The United States
Good one. Its much easier to distinguish helpful posters from crappy ones by the content of their posts. Some of the starred moderators actually don't contribute that much while people without stars often times bring something to the table.
Agreed.
Lord Thornberry, Founder and President Silver Lake
I've learned to take the star with a big grain of salt.
Ok.

People with stars have their work email addresses verified. You are coming to an online forum looking for advice, it is at your own risk whether you listen to it or not.
People don't want their work email reveled for the gold stars, what makes you think people will want to advertise what firm they work in?
He didn't say firm....he said BB/MM/Boutique
It's actually a decent suggestion, I think.
hmm not a bad idea
