− | '''The RBE10K Project|RBE10K Project Facebook contributors support''' Facebook | + | '''[[The RBE10K Project|RBE10K Project]] Facebook contributors support''' Facebook user is actually a team of people committed to assisting and supporting individually to those supporters who wish to contribute and are not familiar with the needs of the project or the tools for participation. The team is self supporting and self training, relying on each other for preparing and training new contributors who might want to participate in the team. |

''Support'' invites, seduces, proposes, gives examples, makes suggestions. It is all in the language. For example, instead of saying "what you have to do is such and such", ''Support'' suggests "you may want to do such and such if you feel you'll have fun", or something along the lines. |
# '''''Support'' never makes the other person wrong'''. It doesn't matter how wacko a person's attitude might be, they're always entitled to their own preferences, values, principles, opinions, objectives, likes and dislikes. The challenge is finding something in their interests or likes that can be used for the project, according to what ''Support'' understands about the project needs. This is why understanding the project in it's entirety is highly convenient when contributing in this role. | # '''''Support'' never makes the other person wrong'''.

People doesn't owe the project anything, so every contribution they make is exceptional. Even though these contributors aren't doing anything specifically for ''Support'', and may seem like their contribution is tiny and poor quality, careless, dumb, childish, whatever negative opinion ''Support'' might personally have, ''Support'' always shows gratitude, as it is rewarding for the contributor and encourages them to want to do more, to better themselves, and to continue contributing. |

''Support'' is always inviting, seducing, but nevertheless ever taking no for an answer easily. For every door people shut, ''Support'' looks for alternative avenues to conquer people's interest. |
# '''''Support'' always show genuine interest in anything people have personal interest on, or about any skill they claim to have'''. ''Support'' create the interest out of nothing, expressly for each conversation in particular, even if the subject may not be of particular interest for the ''Support'' person. ''Support'' puts themselves in people's shoes, try seeing the world from their eyes. ''Support'' wonders at the magnificence of being someone else and having odd interests, without questioning them, sticking only to what is useful for the project, and gently but assertively dismissing everything that is unsuitable for the project. | # '''''Support'' always show genuine interest in anything people have personal interest on, or about any skill they claim to have'''.
