Do you only endorse people you know?

If you get endorsed- is it proper to endorse back, even if you don't know them?

I only endorse people on Linkedin that I have worked with.. Just curious what the consensus is here :]

I would be hard pressed to find someone I worked with on RP since i got out 30 years ago. No one would get endorsed.

I read posts of folks and after a few that are wise and helpful, I will endorse them.

SSG Jeffery Spencer. I agree with you. It has not been 30 years since I left service. I have not found old friends here yet but have made some new connections.

I give endorsements to folks who I notice are making good contributions to RP and that I feel deserve some recognition. I've also gotten endorsements when I've least expected them. I appreciate them but don't solicit them. I would be hard pressed also to find someone on here who served with me it's been so long.

PV2 (Join to see) You summarized how I feel about this topic all in your first sentence. Kudos for being more articulate than I was when I posted.

Not a bad judgement call PV2 Lisa Wilcox. Give recognition where its due, and seek none for yourself.

I usually only endorse those that I know, or the "Overall leadership and character" based on a preponderance both here on RP.

If I endorse you, I do not expect and endorsement back. Just because you endorsed me, does not mean I will endorse you back. At least not because you endorsed me anyway.
