Callout for moderators

Post: # 2013997Post n1ck »

Hi all

As you would have seen over the last few days (weeks, months, years!) there is a need for forum moderation, despite what some say.

I am looking into upgrades and updates for the forum software, security, infrustructure and a bunch of other things to make the site sustainable in the longterm - it would be great if there was someone/s who might be interested in putting their hand up to help Saintsational through to the next phase of its existence and (hopefully) it's next cycle of popularity.

For now - this would be in the form of a volunteer role, however I can envisage a scenario whereby we can offer moderators some form of remuneration in future.

If you would be interested in this please drop me a DM and we can have a chat.

Cheers!
Nick

While we wait for new mods, I have just sent 1 x warning PM to a baiter and issued 2 x 1 weeks bans. Sainternist and Annoyedsaint. Pretty obvious breaches of the rules. Perhaps have a read of the rules to remind yourselves of what could get you banned. While we await new mods, I might up my reading of the forum. I might be as inconsistent and stupid as the MRO - but at least some of what I have just read, won't get unpunished.

While you and Big Mart play Dancing With The Stars in this forum, it ain't gonna happen.

Maybe stop taking over threads with posts that go for 18 paragraphs of empty vacuous drivel- that's a start

Some see being appointed as a mod as a way to settle old scores.

Don't think our administrators would fall into that trap.

but imagine how much fun it would be !!

the first PM that ended up in my box
whinging about being baited
would get the first weeks holiday

that would fix that issue for evermore

then

i'd change my id piccy to this

then

obviously

my two sidekicks would have no work to do

'n i could get back to my drainage 'n moat issues
knowing all was well in the world

I have a message for Skeptic from Gaz.
Gaz asked how you were going.
I said you are doing the job well.
Gaz is pleased. 🙂

Apologies… I missed this,

There was a software update last week. A day or so after, I had trouble posting for several hours. Some posts worked, others timed out.

Seems to have stopped now
