Here's what the Wiki says about the help channel:
Help Channel - is there to help people out. Developers and experienced testers scan the Help Channel to answer any question you might have.
Question: when is this going to be implemented? If testers don't model this behaviour now, and Glitch is launched with the help channel being in fact not help but a social chitchat space for a clique of testers, the help channel may never fulfil its stated purpose.
