k9sar Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 I'll defect. though that's probably another good reason (in B's eyes as well as others) to make Dan a moderator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94extreme Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 ok, this is what you can expect from moi: (this is what i do on other boards i mod) in the garage and model specific forums i would definitely try to point one in the direction of their answer... i enjoy "troubleshooting" if you can call that over the internet. in the general: i'd just keep it clean and decent overall, i am not big on irrelevant drivel in threads that discuss specific issues so those would probably have to go.. snip, snip.. i'd probably lock up expired threads.. i have volunteered long ago to take care of TOM but that never materialized (Mr. Jim got even busier.) i would really like to revive it. of course i am on here a lot so you can expect my presence anytime..

denisb Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 As said in previous posts, I think a moderators should be people that have a fairly good knowledge of our rigs (all years) and knows where to find the info he is uncertain about. Are on the forum often enough to know what's going on and new info on the forum. Be able to recognise when people are laughing with other people and not laughing at other people. Remember the important part is that people learn and are not affraid to ask. Some people are less knowledgable mechanically. We want to have fun, but not at other people's expense.

94extreme Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 have a fairly good knowledge of our rigs (all years) and knows where to find the info he is uncertain about. this is normally a tech area on boards i frequent. has nothing to do with moderating although i feel it to be good idea for model specific areas. i for one, don't really know squat about r50s and have been wrong more then helpful so i surely would let someone else do that room who is maybe an r50 owner.

Runnerman Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I Nominate Vengeful For the R50 Forum. & I Nominate Filthy Luker for the Wd21 Forum. I think both of these guys know there line of Rigs pretty well. They also have shown to be very respectful and can let people have an opinion. And the biggest thing they don't have the know it all attitude. The opinion thing is big I think they would not jump all over people but would let it go and just show facts to prove a point.

Slick Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 make sure you add a "none of the above" selection hmm.. good idea.. wonder if they got that email for all memebers thing figgered out yet so we can email the masses.... sssh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k9sar Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 hmm.. good idea.. wonder if they got that email for all memebers thing figgered out yet so we can email the masses.... sssh this'll be like electing a pope..... look for the white smoke!

Precise1 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 wonder if they got that email for all memebers thing figgered out yet Thats an Admin function, so no, I'm sure it hasn't been done yet. I don't see any harm in having a poll, but then 88 just asked for nominations, not an election. I'm sure he'll make a decision or set something up when he sees fit/is able to.

k9sar Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 it would be a cruel joke on all of you if Aaron were to wave his magic admin chickenbone wand over my head and strike me down as a moderator. The world would never be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Pickles Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 After all this, I'll self-nominate if my help is wanted. I hope what I've put up is mostly helpful or usefull to anybody. I've got a pretty decent Pathy knowledge that is helped along by 88 and others as well as wrenching on my truck myself often. I think I'm a pretty reasonable person in general that uses common sense, and I try to be helpfull to anybody, new or old. Self promotion aside, thanks to those that have given their time and efforts already in keeping this a great place to explore and learn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 ^^ yes.. I agree with Mr P.. AND he's been a long time member of NPORA so deserves some kudos now.. will married life prevent you from carrying out your duties? sssh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 A mod should simply help keep things moving along and keep people adhering to the rules Jim wants followed. There is a limit to the powers of a mod, so it's not an all-powerful position by any means, nor is it a paid position (heh). If you're involved enough with the forum, your own Pathfinder and like offroading, then you're in the right zone to be a moderator. The mass email function of this board does not work. Sorry, I can't do anything about that. Actually, I don't think it works on my board either. D'oh. k9sar: My wand is not chickenbone. It is onyx with opal inlays and a spessartine tip.
