Arnie Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 In the past I've not put up announcements about new staff/mods but I'll try to from now on. After a bit of a chinwag behind the scenes the current staff decided that it'd be a good idea to add more moderators. We pondered over suitable names and as a result of this (and after asking them prior) I've added Gene and Marlowe as global moderators for the forums. Having more moderators means that there's more people around when there's issues that nead to be dealt with, plus it means that you should find a more varied crew around to help you.

Adamt Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 You should could consider taking the moderator position away from some people. ( none of the new ones ) Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Jebus Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 You should could consider taking the moderator position away from some people. ( none of the new ones ) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why? We NEEDED new mods, with 11,000 users it's too big a workload for a small moderating team. Link to post Share on other sites
Arnie Posted January 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 More mods also means that those of us that need to pop away for a bit because of other commitments (holidays etc) don't elave the board unmoderated. Link to post Share on other sites
gazchap Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Fully in agreement with your choices, Arn. Marlowe has always been the sword of reason being stabbed righteously into threads in disarray Congrats to the both of you on your promotion. Is the pay any better? Link to post Share on other sites

rhino Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Well in my defence, my computers in pieces and i'm currently sorting out funds for a new one. Getting half an hour at the cybercafe doesn't really allow me to do much moderating. Link to post Share on other sites
Samm Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 All the mods have been active either today or yesterday? When something gets reported, it sends a PM to all the mods and it ends up in their email inbox. Link to post Share on other sites
Adamt Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 I meant out of 11k users how many of them are active? under 1k maybe. Link to post Share on other sites

sniper_boi Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 ahhh new mods!!! are they for the whole site or just little bits and bobs of it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Global Mods moderates all the site, there are some mods that moderate little bits of the forums, lets take elrey as an example he only moderates the offtopic and for sale sections of the forum.

Hissing_Sid Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 I meant out of 11k users how many of them are active? under 1k maybe. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Try doing a member search for users with less than 1 post, or less than 5, or less than 20 and you'll soon see what percentage of the membership is active. ahhh new mods!!! are they for the whole site or just little bits and bobs of it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Given that Marlowe has posted in this thread, you don't really have to look too far to see that "Global Moderator" tag under his avatar.
