Jimmy Seddon Community Champion

Hi @Gajanan Sasane, The documentation for Data Center will also work for Cloud: https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/configuring-the-administrator-contact-form-974375905.html * Click on the Admin cog and select the System menu * This should take you to the General Configuration, select Edit Settings in the top…

Thank you to everyone who asked questions! I hope you all enjoyed participating as much as I did answering the questions. Now for the moment you have all been waiting for, the announcement of the winners: @Andy - PTC Redundant @John Funk @Jack Brickey @Shawn Quinn @Dharma Ramos Congratulations! Each of you can expect to…

I believe @Community Manager will be making a recording available. Stay tuned!

@Brant Schroeder but do you have the accent?

That's awesome @Vero Rivas!

I also have not tried imitating anyone. Though I fell I need to pose the question back to you @Suvradip Paul , have you attempted Mimicry in the past? and do you have some fun photos to share? ;)

Amazing @Suvradip Paul Thank you for stepping up!

Alright backup gang where are you? @Vero Rivas @Suvradip Paul @Marjorie @Huwen Arnone _Deiser_Devoteam_ I think we are going to need some Friday Fun help today. Whoever responds first, go for it - Here is your link to start your topic and here are the latest topics for reference. Thank you for jumping in at the last minute.

@Gonchik Tsymzhitov just following up again. Have you made a Friday Fun post yet? As Monique pointed out, Here is your link to start your topic and here are the latest topics for reference and inspiration! Thanks!

@Martin Varga from one Extra-Lifer to another, I LOVE what you guys are doing! I hope you all do really well raising money for such a wonderful cause (I'm a Sick Kids Canada supporter).

@Kristján Geir Mathiesen I always love these topics! I think what I got in the most trouble for was breaking my dad's really expensive set of binoculars. I don't really remember all of the details as I believe I was 4 at the time. However, I do remember that my dad was quite mad about it when it happened. But it resulted…

AMAZING! Great work everyone! You all are Rockstars and deserve this! via GIPHY

Welcome to the group @Mayur Jadhav!

Great question @Thorhalla Gudmundsdottir Beck! If I have had a frustrating day at work. Virtually hanging out with my friends watching some sort of comedy. If it's my 4 year old testing the limits of my patience, being alone for a few hours listening to music on Spotify and either working on a coding project or working on…

Thanks @Taranjeet Singh! I really want to meet a TON of people I have had the pleasure of interacting with on the Online Community. Right now, my hope is an in person 2022 Team event!

Wow! Good question @Taranjeet Singh! First, getting involved in Atlassian Community Events, I'd recommend checking out https://ace.atilassian.com and looking at the various Canadian chapters. There might be one for you to join. As for getting a role in the Atlassian space, this is my personal experience, having a…

Thanks @Taranjeet Singh! The most important advice I would have for anyone is this: If you are volunteering to do something, do those things because you enjoy it. If you aren't having fun and it just feels like a burden, you should stop and find something else to channel your energy into. I was an ACE leader for the…

A number of years ago, I actually worked for an Atlassian Competitor for some time. When I moved to a startup in 2012. They were using free tools for issue tracking and source control. In 2014, they made the decision to move to paid tools. I was not a part of the selection process, but I took over the admin work having…

Ok @Teodora V _Warsaw Dynamics_ wants to get real for a second. Honestly, some days it is EXTREMELY hard to do. Others I simply need to let something slip in order to manage all the rest. Too many times sleep is the thing I let slip. As far as staying motivated, my best advice here is to surround yourself with amazing…

Great question @Dharma Ramos! Actually, the Atlassian Products and the documentation are another resource I use. I have a cloud instance (on the free plan) for every Atlassian Cloud product because one of the best ways I learn is to simply play with features and try them out myself. I'm also lucky to work for a company…

Hi @Navodha Wickramahewa! I wrote a how to guide on this topic that includes a video walkthrough of adding a new org admin and removing another, which you can check out here: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-articles/How-To-Guide-Replacing-an-Organization-Administrator-in-an/ba-p/1732397

Hey @Shawn Quinn! My first questions back to you would be what version of Confluence are you running and are you on the server or Data Center version? I don't disagree with your thought process however, without knowing what version you are on I'm not sure if you will run into any issues trying to import an export from your…

Hey @Shawn Quinn! I see that you also posted this as a discussion over here: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Welcome-Center-discussions/In-a-bit-of-a-quagmire-maybe-you-can-throw-me-a-rope/m-p/1812781 I'm going to provide an answer there so we don't start two threads of discussion on the same topic.

LOL! @Jack Brickey I think you have a better chance of winning the lottery. via GIPHY

HAHA! Great question @John Funk! That one is easy, it's the Taco Plushie Erica sent me (on the right) as it goes very well with my own company mascot Cypher:

Hey @Martin Bayer _MoroSystems_ s_r_o__ ! I have been really lucky that both my previous and current employer recognize the importance of me using the Community to both learn and become a better administrator, as well as share what I know and what we are doing with the Atlassian products with the rest of the Community.…

Great set of questions @Andy - PTC Redundant! I'll answer them in order: * If by some tragedy Atlassian didn't exist, I'd be willing to bet that I would have been using the Microsoft stack. I have always been in favor of using everything from one vendor as the integrations between products are very well done and I really…

HAHAHA! Thanks @Fun Man Andy! That is not true. It's not law, but strongly encouraged, we wouldn't want to offend anyone ;)
