i may not have the right answers that you are looking for. but will shoot at it just the same.

this is the unit blog and has turned into a ad hoc support site. not that it was meant to be so.

expertzzz.com is where i go for help and also to help others. i think boonex is trying to come up with something that is going to clean all of this up at some point.

for the time being, there are many of us who are helping others that are on both boonex and unity. there is a wordpress blog that offers see more help as well, dont recall the url but you can run it through google, and come up with it.

as for paying for a contributor status or pro status as you say, i dont know what pro status is, and i have found that with contributor status, you actually find less help in the contributors arena of the expertzzz.com forum. there are just so many who expect all of this for free. i have both versions, free for testing and adfree for live sites that i host for others.

tag is more or less a keyword, so in blogging as this is setup to be, you would tag or keyword your posts. just another avenue for optmizing for the search engines as well as the search function of the site.

hope this helps out.

later,
