Good question,
Advisors are a selected few that have shown their dedication towards bettering PF in many ways. They are distingished, trusted and look to improve PF for the future. Advisors look after the principles of the forum and can contribute ideas and help problem solve forum issues. Everything you'd expect from an advisor. They don't have any duties per say, think of them as forum representatives. Does that help, or do you have a more specific question I can help you with?
The authority of the Advisors varies depending on the context and situation. In general, they are seen as experts in their respective fields and have the power to make decisions and provide guidance and recommendations to others.
The Advisors gain their authority through a combination of education, experience, and expertise in their chosen field. They are often highly respected and recognized for their contributions and accomplishments in their area of expertise.
The role of the Advisors in decision-making processes is to provide valuable insights and recommendations based on their expertise. They often serve as consultants or advisors to decision-makers and their opinions are considered important in the decision-making process.
No, the Advisors do not have the final say in decision-making. They may provide guidance and recommendations, but ultimately the decision rests with the decision-makers. The role of the Advisors is to provide valuable input to help inform the decision-making process.
If the decision-makers do not follow the advice of the Advisors, it may result in a less informed or potentially flawed decision. However, the decision-makers have the ultimate authority and responsibility for the decisions made. The Advisors may continue to provide guidance and recommendations, but ultimately it is up to the decision-makers to determine the best course of action.
