And highlights the difference between 'power' & 'influence'. Advice which is influential tends to be advice coming from a respected person who posts articulate, well thought out information. This is completely regardless of 'power'. For example Chirimoya is an articulate person who posts good stuff & people listen to her. But she is not a moderator so she has no power. However, she has status based on merit. There could be those who have power but no status

. i think it is an error to mistake power for status, either on a board or in real life. Mussolini had power but did he have status? Ditto Kim Jong Il.
