In reply to the discussion: Do you like the new jury system? [View all]mentalsolstice
(4,600 posts)I always felt that getting a notification of the results was a teaching/learning moment. Also I liked that the result notification contained a link back to the thread. Oftentimes I'd get picked to be on a jury, and while reading through to get context for my decision, I would think "hmm, this is an interesting discussion, I'll need to come back later."
I also hate that you have to pay something to be on a jury, but get nothing back in return. I feel that being a member for certain amount of time or having a requisite number of posts should be enough to qualify for jury duty.
However, I have a feeling the admins are going to stick their guns on this, and that's it. I'll try it a few more times, after that I'll probably change my setting to "not willing to serve." It's just too confusing, not gratifying, and not worth the interruption. If enough other members feel the same, it will mean the jury pool is going to get a lot smaller.
