The State of The Forums

[Dorikin]

Alright,

Im tired of the way the forums are being run. Its lawless here. I Appreicate the other mods help, but we need something more.

We need a mod who regularly contributes, REALY knowledge, who knows something about 240s.

Theres several people here who are up to the job. Im not trying to nominate myself. For startes, see who posts here, who contributes to the FAQ, who helps out. Then you have an idea

If your with me, then reply and state your ideas.

Go ahead and close this thread, if you like, your just stifiling opinion thouigh.

while i do appreciate the other mods taking time out of their busy schedules to help us out(Razor, Jay, John have all been a big help to our forum in the past), i agree that it makes more sense to have someone full-time so you guys don't have to worry about our forum on top of your other duties. but i know that choosing mods is Igor's job and Igor's job alone, so i'm not blaming you guys at all. maybe someone could call this to Igor's attention so that something can be done about it? like i said, in the recent past, i've had chats with a couple of other mods that said that they spoke to Igor about it, but nothing seems to have happened. he also seems to have been more active lately, what with his "smilies" thread in OT, and the new water-mark in the post box. so he's online. i do, however, understand that he is a busy man, and if this is at the bottom of his list, then that's fine with me, as long as it's ON the list.

once more, a big thanks to all the mods who've helped out with this forum, and let's hope something can be done about this that makes everyone happy.

I think if J Spec Sileighty was still here he would be a great moderator! But to bad he isn't so hmmm Dorikin seems like he'd be a good moderator.

let's not nominate people, now. it's who the mods and Igor think would be best suited to the post, and also someone who has the time and drive to put the right amount of effort into the job. i'm not saying Dorikin doesn't possess all of these qualities...but if everyone could pick someone to be a mod, i doubt we'd have a majority...everyone would pick someone different.

I've replied to Dorikin's pm.

I will say it is being discussed and hopefull enough good names put fourth so 1 maybe 2 can be nominated.

You can pm myself or Jay if your interested.

I will also pin this temp until something is sorted.

[Dorikin]

Thanks for not deleting this man!

If you guys allow, could we have a poll on who could be nominated for moderator.

I mean, have the posters pick one or two(or 3 even) people whos names should be put forward and then the higher authoritys can choose.

Not trying to nominate myself, but I feel if we have a mod, we should have somewhat of a say in it.

I should be the new moderator... What with my constant yearn for more power and what not. If I were moderator all would bow to me and anyone that disagreed with me would DIE. Anyone that agreed with me would prolong their life until they disagreed with me, and don't worry I'd find something for them to disagree with.

Alright, anyone that wants to DIE, make me moderator!

First issue when I'm moderator, everyone that has a vowel in their name should DIE.

lol...

(The following was a joke, don't take me seriously peeps).

[grncivicdhr]

not to say that people are dishonest, but can you regulate everyones vote so they can only vote once?

[Suislide]

i dunno if a vote would work. seems to me like everyone would pick someone different, and no 2 would stand out enough...

[Sanchi]

:apoke: alright!! im happy this is going in the right direction!!! And ya a poll is a bad ideal, Nameing your salf here is a bad ideal aswell. Just send your nominations to the MOD's and lets see what happonds!!! good luck everyone!!

[S14Kyle]

Someone start sending nominations so that we can vote!

[Sanchi]

Sorry Kyle the voteing is not up to us.

I think it would be ebst to let the mods choose who will be a moderator.... after all theya re mods lol

they should look our posts and info to determine who would be a good moderator.

Its funny how I see a difference in how some of you guys are posting all of a sudden...
