Mod Nominations!

Hi Everyone

I think it's time we expanded our mod team

If you can think of someone who might make a good mod, please let us know by starting a thread in the Contact Admin section (please do not put nominations in this thread). You can nominate as many people as you like.

Mod nominations help us see who might be a popular choice with the community, so if you think someone might be make a good mod, please let us know!

As we already have two UK based mods who are also female, perhaps we can look at two more mods, perhaps living in a different time zone and/or are male? If not, no problem, nominate who you would anyway as it's always helpful to see who might be a popular choice with the community.

Thanks! I can't wait to see who gets nominated

Re: Mod Nominations!

Is this going to be a serious nomination or just a popularity contest between friends?

Given that the nominations are private, I doubt the latter.

Also, I think you should give our members a little more credit - being a forum for the over 50s. I am sure everyone here is is fully aware of the implications of mods being selected when they aren't really suitable (as seen on many other sites )

Besides, these are just nominations to let us know who the community 'might' like to see as mods. I will ultimately have to approve anyone being approached to help us moderate the site.

Re: Mod Nominations!

You could go through all that and they decline the offer....
I thought the norm was to ask if anyone wants to be a mod to contact the forum owner ? .....

Would you like to be tried before a jury of volunteers?

Whoever takes it on is a volunteer - they will either accept or decline - certainly not forced

Yes that can and does happen - sometimes, some people are just too busy to mod a site, or they feel it might remove some of their enjoyment.

I think there are no hard rules on how mods are selected, each site has their own approach. I prefer to ask members who, I think, are fair, balanced and generally of a happy disposition. Quietly confident individuals

It's always nice to know who the members have in mind - I wish I could, but I can't mind read

Can't see any reason why members couldn't nominate themselves if they fancied the job Patsy....
