-When a contributor (a user in one of the contributor groups, e.g. Forum helpers) logs in they are taken to their Dashboard. The Dashboard provides multiple views (tabs?) of user and group specific information. At a minimum it will have a view for information and action items related to the individual, a view related to the group they belong to and a view where they can manage their personal profile.

+For our users that have only registered in order to ask a question the default personal dashboard will have information about contributing to SUMO with the ability to op-in to becoming a contributor (choosing this would automatically add them to the contributor group). The one basic difference of being a contributor would be that you will see (and be emailed) the site-wide announcements. There should also be information on this page that becoming a contributor is not mandatory and that you can still answer questions and edit articles without this.

 Displays the stuff the contributor can act upon
 * Site-wide announcements (a message that can be edited on screen by the admin. An email is sent to the user when it is changed.)
-* In case you are a registered user you get a standar message asking you to become a contributor to get occasional messages from us. Below that is a button that reads "become a contributor".
 * Your contributor forum threads with replies
