Are you a SpiceHog?This is actually a special subsection of Spiceworks community users. They are online 24/7/365. You will find their posts on 99% of threads. They provide the Best answer 90% of the time (This number is increasing.). Some of them have even been accused of being multiple people!
Leave you comments here or in the forums and we could include you in our follow up next month!
Thanks _Brian_ for the Images and idea – read the forum post here
Tabrez has just posted some very interesting information
We’re going to periodically feature a SpiceHead from the Community. Today we’ll be learning more about Justin Davison. Justin has been using Spiceworks for over a year (starting at v2.1).
Tabrez and the team managed to get Justin to answer questions like
When you’re not saving the day at work, what do you do with your free time?
Free time? Where can I download it? I love to cook, I grill out just about every day it doesn’t rain in the summer. During the winter and fall I bowl, but not nearly as well as I would like. I also enjoy reading and watching movies as much as time permits. The best thing for me is the moments away from a computer screen, it gives a nice break.
It will be interesting to see who they do one on next, well done Justin for being the first
Ive had a few today but just thought they were best awnsers…
The community now sends out Helpful Post emails

Tabrez has just posted the official what’s changed in this community release http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/72084
I only missed one
Latest Spiceworks Version
We’ve heard from you that you’d like to easily tell if you have the latest released version of Spiceworks. We’ll now list the version on more pages so you can tell at a glance if you have the latest and spiciest version.
Rock on Spiceworks
There on the groups page
http://community.spiceworks.com/group
Hopefully well see more soon and more things we can do with them
Its the morning after the community update and seem seemed to go well (the community is working at least)
We are still awaiting a full list of things that have changed but here are the things I have spotted so far:
Spiceworks News
All the latest Spiceworks news is now shown on the My Community Page to help make sure you don’t miss anything

Points System
Due to the outburst of point cheating the points system has changed.
You can now get points for windows even comments.
Insted of getting 10 points for every post you now one get one point per new topic you talk in, meaning it is more contribution based.
If you fill out all of your profile you automatically get 100 points.
Channels
There are now channels in the community but i have yet to find a full list of them, the networking one is http://community.spiceworks.com/channel/show/3-networking
Channels are aimed to help organise groups, If you visit the Networking channel you’ll see all the topics from groups like Cisco, DNS, etc.
Share-It
At the bottom of all topics there are now social media buttons so you can share something from the community on Facebook, Twitter, Digg, Linked In, and Reddit.

So hopefully Tabrez will post up a list of everything that has changed soon and I can do a full write up, but I think I got most of them.
We’re planning on pushing out an update to the Spiceworks Community tonight (Jul 14) at 7pm CST. The Community will be offline during this time. We should be back up in 4 hours. For those of you with S.C.A.D – rest assured we’ll be back and spicier!

Some of the changes you’ll see are:
- A few changes to the point system (I’ll post back tomorrow with the details but in a nutshell: you can now earn points for providing troubleshooting advice and comments on Windows Events)
- We’re testing out a new way of organizing groups around a concept called Channels. For eg: If you visit the Networking channel you’ll see all the topics from groups like Cisco, DNS, etc.
- Topics will now have social media buttons so you can share something from the community on Facebook, Twitter, Digg, Linked In, and Reddit. When you share something you found interesting on Spiceworks you’re also helping spread the word about Spiceworks!
I’ll post more details once we get the release out.
Its going to be a hard time of everyone with SCAD but well fight though it.
