I have serious misgivings about what Azelda has requested. The dev staff has better things to do than respond to questions from users. You have to run the gauntlet of tech support staff before you get to a highly skilled response because their time is so valuable that it can not be squandered on answering questions unless abslutely necessary. You've suggested that users be allowed to state their expertise, and receive responses accordingly. What happens when people begin abusing the system by claiming they're highly skilled, thus bypassing the early ranks of the nuisane-avoidance/customer-support service, in order to ask a question which the lower echelons could have answered without pause? I'll tell you what happens: the more experienced staff are pulled from their important work to waste time answering middling questions. Though it would understandably benefit highly skilled coders such as yourself, I can't imagine that the benefit to these elite members would outweigh the huge volume of detritus which they would receive from "experts" with stupid questions.
