View Full Version : Who wants to be a Moderator?

Hi guys!

We used to have quite a few moderators on WiiFind. They did a really good job but, as tends to happen, some of them used the site less and less. Eventually we were down to only 2. We don't have that many problems with spam on the site, but it'd be nice if we could get a full team of moderators again to make sure things run smoothly. Ideally these would be people with ideas as to how we can improve the site, get more people involved etc. So we need people willing to give up some of their time and also to get creative!

Anyone interested?

wat additional duties would you have to take on?

Kate

Nothing too strenuous. The main task is checking for spam but, like I said, we don't get much of that anymore. There's also checking that people are being nice to each other. That's also never been a problem here though. Your main task would be to admire the shiny 'Moderator' title under your user name!

if thts it then im interested, is there an age limit?

why not have a vote? you know like by the people for the people, have a public vote for any1 thts interested in being a mod, and see hoo the people want, (no voting for themselves) hows tht sound?

Kate

Sounds like a good idea. I'll wait and see who's interested and if there's enough then I'll set up voting. Or maybe a fight to the death instead...

There's no age limit. As long as you can do a great job we won't set any restrictions at all.

fair enough, thanks. i think plenty of people will be interested. So we just need to wait for people to come online and confirm it

I believe thelocaluk suggested to admin that I have a moderator position a while ago, so I'd be interested in being one of the mod team:)

It would be nice to offer the position to members who have stuck with Wiifind from the beginning, and Huzzie is a real Wiifind trooper ;)

Lol, cheers Local. I'll pay you later ;)

Kate

Well I'm convinced! You're definitely in the running. I'll check back on Monday to see who's interested. If there are enough I'll run a vote. Or I might do by best Louis XIV impression and choose my favourites! No, I will honestly make this as democratic as possible.

If there's a reward involved..........


Seriously though, huzzellio would be a great addition to your team. If it comes to a vote, he gets mine (sorry to anyone else interested!)

so we already have 3 or 4 people up for voting, if u include me, although i havent been here as long as the pthers so i guess i havent done much to deserve it really.

I seem to remember that post in question, and I think there was someone else in the running as well. But can't find the post or remember who the other member was.

No doubt some one else can remember who it was :D

Who can say if anybody would make a good mod. Everybody has different attributes to, not just becoming a good moderator, but how you view opinions made by your peers, decisions made each and every day and how you go about your daily life. Each person is different and this is what makes us unique.

It must be Sunday, I've come over all philosophical, ;)

Thanks

Thanks for all your replies guys. From what I can see (correct me if I'm wrong- I haven't done reading comprehension for a few years now) we have three people interested: huzzellio, Wii Owner and ben93.

What I propose is that you all become moderators. Actually you'll be Super Moderators which means that you can move threads around, delete them if necessary and generally have more access to the site.

Sound good? Let me know and I'll have Tom sort you out with the new titles and explain what your duties will be.

Hello guys. I'm glad to see some new mods have been chosen! I haven't been around much but hope to be more active again now.

I'll gladly step down as a mod if you feel you have enough but I will offer my continued support and effort if required.
