| Post subject: | Mod nomination thread. |
Dan said that he's looking for mods and told us if we know someone, nominate them. Let's collect the names here, new names will be edited into the thread. If anyone does not want to be a mod but is on the list, make a post and you will be removed. Some simple rules to nominate someone: Has to be a relatively experienced and mature player. Must possess proper grammar. Must have been a member for 1 year (arbitrary number, no "new" members) Tell us your timezone. webguydan wrote: Thanks for starting the thread. Here are some of the things I am looking for: * Willing to log in frequently * Answer questions for beginners and other posters * Some experience with moderation a plus (especially merging topics and posts) * Enforce forum rules when necessary Although there are many nominations, it would be easier to know which members are actually interested in taking on the role, and we can go from there. ____________________________________________________________________ Nominees Fireblade225____United Kingdom GMT+0 kirkeastment____United Kingdom GMT+0 Sparky_________United Kingdom GMT+0 Failname_______the Netherlands GMT+1 imrockerman____east coast USA .GMT-4 Tree7304_______east coast USA GMT-4 Darth Flagitious_______________.GMT-5 FerrusManus__________________GMT-5 Preliator Xzien_________________GMT-5 (please see varunjitsingh146's post on page 3) Rarek________________________GMT-5 varunjitsingh146_California ______GMT-7 Wolfy Minion__________________GMT_7 Aiyah Golgotha ICBLF itsSoulPLayAgain mojo311 Odragon thunderbolta Tree7304 Nominated but does not want to become a mod: Annabell senatorhung |

Slightly related question. Should mods be permanent, or have some sort of term? |

ICBLF is also a great nomination. As for MLP, I understand why he wasn't nominated because he uses his troll grammar most of the time. As for ICBLF, I think that he's a front runner for the spot, he knows his stuff. |

I nominate: Preliator Xzien Tree7304 Rarek I suggest to pick from the nominated players reviewed by Dan thru voting/poll as open choice of community on this forum. and also I suggest to keep them as mod for 1 year, after which we can review if they are active or not much (RL or other reasons) In case the mod is not able to be active any more - it should be possible to replace the mod within a month. |

Darth Flagitious P.S - Preliator Xzien has now been banned. |

My votes would be for Mojo and Annabell... I would prefer to see those with semi level heads who appear to be objective in all aspects of the game.. I would prefer to see someone at the upper rank limits and someone at the midranks hence my nominations.. |

ODragon (aka BenRh) is extremely helpful and does a lot of updates for the GLWiki, knows the game and forum inside out. So I'd definitely add him to the mix. Also he's level headed, which is very important for the position.  |

I would like to be a moderator and participate in making this game better, but I am not very well known. That being said, I would nominate Varunjit, Xzien (I know he's banned right now), and senatorhung. |

I think... it's hard to nominate a moderator. I suspect many people will merely nominate their friends, or their legion mates and it is hard to distinguish who is doing so. Of course there are those who will nominate honestly, and it will still be their friend or legion mate. There will be people here nominating realistically though too. Then we have people who will nominate themselves. You can look at it multiple ways. On one hand, this means that they actually want to be a moderator. On the other, if they're being too eager... well... there's a reason that asking to be an officer of a legion tends to bump you further down the list for promotion. The thing is, this will not come down to a public vote and of that I am glad. It would become a popularity contest (which I am 99% certain it would be one of maybe 3 people who come to mind). With all that said, I'm not sure who I would nominate. To a point, the people who spend a ridiculous amount of time on the forum are those who will be able to do the job best. Those who generally just hop on and off wont be online often enough. On this front, Varun seems like a contender. Something about him, however, does not allow me to think he would make a good moderator. I'm not even wholly certain what it is. Perhaps it is simply the tone of his posts. I don't know. Many people have suggested Darth Flagitious. This is also not a suggestion I could willingly back. Whilst a frequent presence on the forum (though less-so of late), he has a habit of being extremely sarcastic at often inappropriate times. This is something that means I cannot agree with him becoming moderator. ICBLF isn't a bad suggestion at all, however. I haven't really seen any glaring personality flaws of his. He enjoys the game and has generally been shown to be pretty level headed. ODragon I don't see on the forum all that much. That's mostly looking at posts and not the "Viewing this forum", so he could be a lurker but would not get my vote for that reason. Pretty much the same goes for Annabell, really. And Mojo. I'm not going to comment on all of the current nominees, but I'm also going to give support to Kirkeastment. I'm somewhat flattered to see my own name listed there. I would certainly not complain if I were given the position. I would like to be the moderator, and I think I could do a good job of it. |
