Form Moderation
Posted: Thu Jun 04, 2009 12:13 pm
As the regular form members know well, I've been extremely busy with work and life in general for quite some time, and moderation and management of TheNissanPath.com has found it's self much neglected.
At the same time, our membership has grown tremendously, it's about to hit 1K, and our Google page ranks are excellent. Therefore to usher in the next stage in our happy little forum's development, it's time for me to give my inner control freak a rest and get some help.
So, here's my plan... I want 3 moderators to form The Cabal Of The Path who will work together to run the forum. To choose these 3 people we'll do this democratic style and hold an election. I'll post a poll this weekend with the top 5 posting users (excluding my self and Gray), plus any other regulars who would like to be nominated or who you'd like to nominate (Triffid? MonkeyMike? GuinnessJim? Ragpaoa? SilverGhost?) .
If you're one of the top 5 posters and do NOT want to be in the election just let me know and I'll pull your name. Moderating takes time and commitment, especially when moderating by committee, so no hard feelings at all if you're not interested.
We'll wait until the end of Monday to catch people who only get online at work to cast their votes if they wish and then the top 3 are elected. The Cabal will pretty much run things as they like, I honestly don't have time to log into the forum more than once every few weeks, but I'm sure it'll be in good (better!) hands.
Any questions/complaints/suggestions?
