Or, you could simply wait until Spyrorocks thinks it neccessary to add another moderator. He hasn't really made a mistake yet, and the mods he's chosen have done a great job. The only real problem is that there are around 12 members online at a time. I rarely ever see any mods beside SR himself. Don't get me wrong, the mods do an AWESOME job, it's just that they are not always online.

They do an awesome job, yes. smile

maybe if there was at least one mod from each timezone then there wuld probably be a more round the clock watch.

DragonFireOKN · Jul 08, 2008 11:42 PM

That would be a good idea. But it wouldn't really be fair if their were two people that were qualified in the same time zone. For example, I live on the U.S. East Coast. I know that their are several members that live in Georgia that runs in the same time zone as Virginia's. It wouldn't really be fair if you couldn't be a mod because of where you live. It should be based on dependability. If I chose, it would be someone who has been here for a long while, not just on post count. Some people post more than others.

Reivan · Jul 08, 2008 11:44 PM

i said at least. and some people are on at diferent times than each other in the same timezone. im not saying limit it to one mod per zone... that would be silly.

DragonFireOKN · Jul 09, 2008 12:00 AM

You'd still need reliable people. We have four mods/admin now: (Razz, Spyro, Loneknight, Spyrorocks) but I rarely see anyone but SR on a lot. In my opinion, more mods are needed. Not an overflow, but like 1 or 2. This forum has over 1600 members. Speaking mathematically, (I know many members never post) that's 400 members per mod. I doubt any person could control that many people on their own. I student teach with thirty 11 year olds, it's not easy to be everywhere at once.

I'm fully capable of using sites like hostip.info.

I'm sure this has been said before, but in addition to finding people that's nice and can act mature, you need to find people that also has either a lot of time on their hands. I don't initially seem to mind being a mod, but then I always remind myself of the fact that I can't promise anyone a consistent record of being on the site, and I hate making false promises that relates to getting something done on time. I'm just afraid that I might not have a good work ethic as a result of that inconsistency.

LoneKnight · Jul 09, 2008 3:23 AM

I'm more active now than I was before, due to the fact that I can use my right hand again (the thumb was cut off and added back on, it was on a cast for several weeks). As for new moderators, here's the truth: We only recruit those who show real community initiative, maturity, and dedication. Oftentimes, we get a moderator, and that moderator loses control or breaks the rules or does something else that, had we known of this in advance, we would not have allowed that person to become a moderator. It's been difficult to find and keep good moderators.

I accidently cut my thumb completely off with a knife while cutting something. No pain medicine.

DragonFireOKN · Jul 09, 2008 8:21 PM

Wow, I hope it can make a full recovery.

ratchet · Jul 10, 2008 3:54 AM

4 mods? Only? Wow, I thought there'd be more! Good luck finding a new mod, I suggest Stormy

Doppelgangergang · Jul 10, 2008 3:58 AM

Stormy is an off-duty mod like me after all. smile

Reivan · Jul 12, 2008 5:54 AM

off duty??? Im afraid i dont understand...

Stormy · Jul 12, 2008 12:56 PM

Spyrorocks · Jul 12, 2008 4:50 PM

More like "ex-moderators".

DanteAndVergil · Jul 12, 2008 4:53 PM

Yeah there happens to be 4 "ex moderators" Me, Stormy, DoppelGangerGang, Brom The Wise,

Doppel just so happens to prefer the term *off duty mods* which is a bit pointless tongue seeming we will never regain the moderator status again
