OK, I think, we need to figure out who are the "Experts" as far as NI are concerned. This will possibily allow us to determine the purpose of the Expert Tab maybe? Maybe one of the NI guys can comment?

My wild guess:
Well, the forum is by Lithium, and the "experts" tab is just one of the features that can be turned on or off, depending on the local configuration. This seems to be an option where the votes of certain well regarded participants have a a higher weight.
Since we see the tab, the feature is activated, but so far no experts have been defined yet.

That's what I was trying to get across (but a lot more eloquent than how I did it).

Hi all,
You are correct. The Lithium feature is meant to be used to highlight users whose kudo weight is greater than 1. We do not make use of this feature currently, therefore I have turned off the "Experts" tab. Sorry for the confusion.
Thanks,
Jordan

....users whose kudo weight is heavier than 1.
Thanks,
Jordan

How do you weigh them? 😉

I suppose Jordan sentence is to be looked at the opposite way: once you are credited as expert (with some rule similar to ranking in forum boards) your kudos will weight more than 1.
