Please list a nominee for a new Moderator here for a vote
« on: November 11, 2008 - 02:17:46 PM »
We have been ok'd to have another moderator here to help out with the site functions and patrol for spam bots and un wanted guests along with other duties.

Please just post a member you'd like to add on the vote for list.  No other comments are nec.  Just a name.  We can vote when we think there is enough names to be ran.

I would think this could be done in a 5 day or less vote with active members.

Maybe be ready to vote for mod by sunday to give everyone a chance to read and decide

1)Viperman
2)MEK
3)Moparal
4)goodygotacuda
5)Alaskan_TA
6)
7)
8)
9)
10)

**EDIT**

Might I suggest that since this is a position of responsibility (verses say your picture in a Calendar) that "nominees" accept or reject their nomination, as desired.  In otherwords, let's make sure these nominees WANT the job.

I, ViperMan, accept Moparal's nomination - and with honor, I might add.

Good reading for anyone considering being or picking a moderator;

http://www.morewriting.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=133

I would also add that any good moderator really needs two things. Wisdom & tact.   :2cents:

Consider your vote carefully too, mods are easier to add than to remove.

Personally, I also think Alan would make a good choice. He logs in even when he is on the road, not many of us have that option.

Thanks Jeff,

I was putting names up there as a reference for everyone.  I feel anyone of these guys, but not limited to, may be qualified. I am honored that I was nominated.
I was also waiting to hear from the people I put up to see how they responded. They have the right to reject. And I was hoping that others would of chimed in to say who they like, and who they would like as a moderator.

I really enjoyed the link Barry, it is straight forward. And thank you for the comment you gave for me.

I would like to make a post on voting for the Mod by tomorrow , after the guys listed chime in and maybe some other members would like to be on this list.

There have been a dozen spam newbies posting today which kept Old School and Chryco on the ball. They do an excellent job and keep a level head when doing this. 

This is a big responsibility and this position shouldn't be taken lightly.  When I get to Kansas City tomorrow,  and checked in my motel, I will post the people on who to vote for unless anyone else has any suggestions.

 :thinkerg:  Just a thought.....Another moderator or two would be great.  But when considering the choice, shouldn't you take into account the "time" of day that the newly picked mods will be online doing their functions?  In otherwords, if you have 2 or 3 mods who are all online at roughly the same time, when they log off, you are left without anyone until they get back online. 

You need 3 tours of duty.  Days, afternoons and the night shift.  Just my 2¢

Hi Guys,

I really do value and respect your including me. But a graciously have to decline as i still class myself as somewhat of a :newbie: here, as i have not been here a year yet, i joined on the 15th of November.  I would cast my vote for Alan as i see him as a highly respected Member who is always on at odd hours and his abilty to be on at any given time would be an accet to the site.

But thanks for your support guys. :bigsmile:
