Just Katie Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 I suppose this has been asked in my pre LF days but how does one become a moderator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tresco Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 I doubt whether there are many people clamouring for the job at the moment. [:)]How did you guys become mods?. Did you volunteer, or were you asked? Were some candidates knocked back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Katie Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Praps If one of us presses a report button they will appear as if by magic. We could report it as an unanswered question. Or perhaps Will will share the secret with us. 'Will will' that was strange to write Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tresco Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 I don't think it's a secret as I've been pondering this, and I think they volunteered after a period of un-moderated problems on the forum. There was a chance the forum would have to shut down, and they stepped up to the mark; As to whether three is enough probably a little more time will tell.[;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardian Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 KKK seemed to be 'fishing' for a role!If she were to be proposed by some poor unsuspecting soul and there were to be a vote - how many?Nul points?No, I'd vote for her - wonderful chaos would reign.Just an (inflammatory) thought.

Russethouse Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 [quote user="zeb100"]HelloI would like to be a Mod. I bet it's really well paid with great expences and a huge 4x4 thrown in.Have a nice day Y'allSid[/quote]Make up your mind Sid, you were Fred earlier !!Originally there were 5 mods, two were asked if they would do it and three volunteered. One moved and no longer has regular internet access, sadly Will has recently resigned.Tresco is correct - LF decided to have mods after a period of disruption on the forum. Looking after the forum is only part of admins job as I understand it, and at that time it was taking up far too much of the time for the person who then had the job (Eleanor?) I seem to remember it was a question of trying having mods or close the forum altogether. As it is James has had to fight to keep this forum open 24 - 7. Archant always have the option to make it a fully moderated board ( which apparently some of their other forums are) which would mean that all posts would be read before they appear on the forum and it possibly would not be open at weekend or evenings.

Tresco Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 KKK seemed to be 'fishing' for a role!I had the same thought Ian, but i don't think K Kat's a 'runner' somehow. Chaos, yes, whether wonderful or not I don't know. I prefer having her as a scampy mate (what, with me being so sensible and all that). [;-)]Don't be a mod K Kat!Imagine how hard it must be for moderators who 'know' people off the forum, whether in the real or virtual world.

Bassman Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 [:D] Oh dear... bell bottoms(originally worn by sailors) were just that bell shaped from the knee down, flares flared out evenly (i.e. in a straight line) from the knee down usually to 17/19"... now loons were REALLY wide anything up to 30" bottoms and really made of cheapo cotton fabric, no pockets, no belt loops usually no turnover at the heel cos' they dragged on the floor and went ragged , really hip ones had stars printed on them or were split between two different colour fabrics at the knee in a V shape and bought from adverts in the back of Melody Maker and worn with platforms with 5" heels and 3" soles..............OMG I'm really giving my age away here [Www] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
