I do not agree. Most of them are very helpful for the forums and will probably become full Moderarors :wink:

I guess. I meant members who had not long been registered for long and have already become Junior Moderator's {up}

But I agree with John with the whole period of time before becoming a Junior Moderator :wink:

I like the idea of having to be a member a few months before becoming a jr mod

Yep, that's a great idea, I've been thinking of that too as mi6forums has it that way aswell.

I think General Discussion and Games should have frozen post counts :wink:
I dont really see a point to turning it off, I allways look through a persons post when deciding to vote on them becoming a moderator to see what they say, post count is meaningless

Well, if you look at "who's online", there are almost always more green members than ordinary members online. :)

I don't say that she wouldn't do a good job (she would) but I think we should see to the need too

by TheMailman » Sat Jan 13, 2007 4:25 pm

I personally think we all do a great job but not all of us can be online at anyone time.

For example, dgangel is more than a good member. She reports spam, helps find people addresses and shows interest in the forum. I think if she is accepted, then perhaps slow down the JM process.

But 90% of them I can see getting rejected anyway :|

Let me try to explain what I think.

We shouldn't have more moderators than we have now.
I mean, we can't just add more mods all the time just because they are good members... To be a moderator is not an award or something for beeing a good member. Moderators are controlling the forum to keep it as clean, nice and well-functioning as possible. It's not a VIP status.

So, if there is no need for more moderators, why should we add more?

Do you see my point? :)

Furthermore, these members may not show any experience in autograph collecting. Moderators should be experienced and able to help members with autograph collecting.

Therefore, I think we should focus on quality, not quantity of posts.

nowandagain [rockon]
You have a point there. How about a time limit then? Let's say they have to be a member for at least 3 months or so before they ask and then we can discuss them in this moderator area?
