With the site here growing, and the administrators having a busy life, there may be a need for forum and board moderators. Many of the other sites have them, and they help the site owner maintain order--why not have one or more moderators here?

We had those... now we have none, but the world wide web is sporting another paranormal site! (inside joke)

Robin helps out, but we dont have any 'official moderators' right now. We're pretty much unmoderated. Sometimes setting up moderators can lead to it's own special brand of trouble.

But we'll keep it in mind and if we do look for mods, we'll let you know DSB. Nice articles you posted today. Thanks for those, Sincerely, Karen

are you volunteering to help out as a mod here?

If so, are you prepared to soon be mad at Karen and/or me?

LOL

Seems like if we make people mods, they end up mad at us, so in order to keep our friends we aren't making them mods anymore!!!

We had one mod delete the entire database a year or so ago, in anger, removing a huge amount of posts, and it was our bad luck that the server's backup sequence hadnt run the night before...

Then we recently had a squad of mods leave and start their own board because they didnt agree with some major issues with Karen and I.

So we decided to leave the board unmodded for now.

It's a conundrum, eh?

Don't think we need another Mod Squad... Soon to be Mad Squad...

Jilly has been through the mad and sometimes vengeful Mod Squad at her great big, highly active site many more times than we have here at PS... So, I'm guessin' we'll go with her idea of un-moderated, or under-moderator for a while longer.

:fish:

The administrator of one of the sites (he closed it three months ago) where I became a member, sent me an e-mail telling me that he made me a moderator of one of the forums--then he asked me if I did not mind. He drafted me. He had that much confidence in my abilities--but I didn't mind, I was glad to do it. It's too bad he closed the site though.

But I'm also a 'Global' moderator (the whole board) at another site. The administrator e-mailed me asking if I would like to do it, I guess he too had confidence in me--I said that I would. So I'm no stranger to the position. But, if this site works more favorably without moderators, then perhaps it would be best to leave it that way. Every site owner has their own way of doing things--mine was just a suggestion.http://members.lycos.nl/neutebeut/smilies/juni/JNweetniet.gif

http://www.feebleminds-gifs.com/cactus_email_anim.gif Well, at least the question was asked--so now anyone that was curious or interested in the position, does not have to keep it in mind any longer. I'm planning to be here for a long time, so it's good to know what the story was. Thanks for the info.

See ya later alligator. http://www.feebleminds-gifs.com/krokodilani5.gif

At some point we WILL have moderators again, and you seem like you would be able to do a good job!!! Just right now, we are recooperating and doing some revamping, some upgrades, and after we're all ready we will be taking mods again - so if you are still here when we are done cleaning up, we'll be talking to you!!

HI GUYS, speaking of mods,(I got here kinda late, I was out visiting the neighbors) I just met the worst troll I've ever encountered. Boy did I have fun. He was practicly foaming at the mouth calling me a lieing sack of s*** among other things. It was great fun. I may get a little 'testy' at times, this guy goes berserk. So yea they needed a mod that could handle me without getting upset about it. I did stretch the limits but I wanted to see how far I could go before getting kicked off the board. Apparently quite a ways, and I can still post as far as I know. I did get a small warning to clean it up which I did, The other guy went ballistic about that time so I jumped right back in and there were no other reprimands. I think the Mods were as tired of this guy as everyone else.

I believe this guy deserved everything I said and more. I read all the posts he put forth and 90% of it was some kind of bashing on the other guys. They were sick and tired of this clown. I wish you could read some of the stuff he came up with. anyways it's good to be back with my 'moderatley' nice people.

I promise I'll never talk that way to you guys though. I invented some new cuss words just for him. like I said it was fun but there are times when I welcome a moderator stepping in, like they should have done before things got as bad as they did.
