Since Hilary and I are spending a lot of time out of town right now, and are hoping to go to more conventions which will also take us out of town a lot, we thought it might be a good idea to appoint a couple extra moderators to handle things here while we're out of town and unable to readily access the forums.

One of the two moderators will be our friend Jim (AncientVikingMaster), because we know where he lives and he's easy to hunt down if anything goes crazy. Also, Impy says he's around for a lot of the backstage stuff of the business so he knows what's what a bit.

For the other moderator, we thought it would be a good idea for you guys to nominate candidates for the position. Hilary and I would then review the nominations, talk to the candidates, and put together a ballot/poll for you all to elect the new moderator.

So, tell us who you want to be in charge around here.

What about Kest anyway? He's around a lot and seems level-headed, plus he already knows how to mod.

I'm willing to do it, but have not moderated a Kyhm forum before and may have a bit of a learning curve. If instant proficiency is needed, suggest Kest or Slamlander.

UN administration he's neutral to the point of inactivity.

And I second the vote for Graybeard, for what thats worth.

I feel flattered to have been named but my schedule is too chaotic and will be for quite a while. There are whole multiple weeks when I'm likely to disappear. Some of it behind a client's firewall. Besides, I'd rather build stuff than ride herd on a flock of cats. :wink:

I suggest one of these guys:
Graybeard (Abbot of the Order of Heretical Monks), if he has the time.
Boss Of of Town, here's a likely vic^H^H^Hcontender :-D He's not doing much else around here anyway :-)
Kestenvarn (Illuminatus of the Order of Heretical Monks), if he has the time.

PS: It also helps to be awake when most of the board is. My 0000 CET is only 1500 PDT.

I don't think there's anything in the rules that says I can't run against myself. I'm sure I can dig up some excellent dirt about myself to totally smear my reputation and hurt myself in the polls.

Oh, did you know that once AncientVikingMaster was seen buying a Chumbawumba album?

Sounds like it would be a heady power trip, but I don't know squat about the job.

If this were a vote, I imagine that, the more dirt you dig up, the better you'd do.

Give it to BOoT!

...That was funnier in my head.

Yes, if it were a vote, I'd say Boss Out of Town.

What does the job entail?

For the moment, the job is no more than maintaining the status quo and being the occasional voice of reason. You'd be able to lock threads, clean up thread titles, or delete spam, but not much else would be required of you.
