Personally I'd think that you guys punya expectations for a threadstarter may be too much for some to bear. Why not share that responsibility with any threadstarter so that any new info can be added in without the one fishing around for info all the time. Anyone can be a TS and any new info, you present it in your post and PM the TS to be included in the first post. That way, all you need is now someone who is very knowledgeable on the product, but just someone who is in this thread often enough so that he can update the first post when new info emerges. Simple as that.
This is a forum after all and in a forum, the contributor is not just the RD but everyone else in between. Also don't expect to be spoonfed, instead be a productive participant in the thread by helping others answer their queries or look up the answers yourself if the first post is well updated.
That way, you don't need a singular person to cover many threads just because he is the only expert around, you can get anyone who is willing to grow and become an expert to be the TS. That is how you groom people to be proficient. I'm sure Benny had to start somewhere, and read up on the things needed to know become he became proficient.Learning takes time and commitment. Why don't someone else do the same and be like him?
Not really, a few "hot" phone model has some good first posts other than uncle Benny's thread. So it is not our expectation is high (of course, for Benny's thread, we will expect higher

)
but TS should preferably be someone who at least has good knowledge about Android. Yes, TS do no need to be expert in G. Note but the per-requisite will be able to be online quite often and update the first posts with useful info and most importantly FAQ. Else, many repeated Q&A will be there. I think at least 20% of the current thread is flooded with repeated Q&A.
I would like to volunteer for next TS but i cannot commit myself for the fourth TS and so on. I hope we can follow DHD thread's style - take turn to be TS for each version. So that everyone can learn and put in new ideas into the contents and layout of the first posts.
