Members Look Here! MB Needs A New Moderator!

Guybrush · 01-01-2011, 06:16 PM

It's a long story, but let's keep it short. Since LoathsomePete and Urban are no longer on the mod team, we're looking for replacements. We think we have one sorted out .. but we're a little unsure of the other. So, we'd like to do another round with applications.

If you think you'd make a good mod and would like the job, then please make a little write-up and private message it to me. I will post your application for reviewing in the moderators forum where we will discuss applicants. In addition to writing how much you'd like to moderate the site, feel free to add a sentence or two on stuff like past experience with moderating, how you'd like to moderate the site or if you have any suggestions for improvements to the site that you feel strongly about. You know, don't be afraid to brag about yourself.

Send it to me within friday 7th of January and good luck!

I actually applied last time, but things have gotten much busier for me since then. I'll be keeping a close eye on this to support potential good candidates however.

And I just want to add to this:

If you're thinking you won't get accepted because you think you're too new, or not "this" or "that", still apply if you really want the position and are able to be here regularly. Believe me, the more [serious] options there are, the better the final decisions will be.

Brilliant Burning Down

I've recieved quite a few applications already! Instead of thanking you all individually, I'll just say here thanks to those who have sent me your write-ups and happy new year to you all

Keep'em coming!

Guybrush · 01-03-2011, 03:03 AM

Woke up today, sat down with the computer and another small pile of applications were in. You know who you are! Many thanks

Ghehe, careful what you wish for, soon-to-be-mods.
It's a tough job

Not really.
Besides having a relaxed community, the key to our stress-free success is having plenty competent, well-meaning & selfless moderators backing each other up. Moderators who don't identify with that will weed themselves out naturally.

Modding MB is a walk in the park if you don't personalize it and view it as some kind of negative obligation.
