I was just going through the Mod team, and realised that all all the Forum Mods are dead (per se). Some of the other active users should be given the new job of cleaning forums like 'The Lounge'?
This will make the Global Moderator's work much easier. They already have enough responsibilities with the On-Topic threads, so let others handle the off-topic spammers?
If there was another moderator it would have to be more than just dealing with 'The Lounge' area because spammers don't only spam that area of the forum.
So in other words a new mod would have full reign over all areas of the forum. It would be completely silly to limit a mod to 'The Lounge' if they're logged in and notice a spam post in say the Recuva area and not being able to do anything about it.
I'm aware of that. Anyway, I love this place and would like to see it clean. That's all. I always report spam
Believe me we are grateful to all of the members who report spam (and lots of you do). You don't see the half of it I'm afraid, we remove spam on an hourly basis most days
Okay, I think there shouldn't be specific forum moderators but "Spam Busters." Do ask MrG. Many members will be more thank happy to volunteer.
Cheers to the hardworking Mods.
No need for 'spam buster' volunteers ishan. As you know all members have to do is press the 'Report' button at the bottom left of any spam post, and then all moderators and admins are automatically sent a pm about the post.
I spent a bit of time looking around. Didn't find anything much. Davey's profile says he is from Maryland, Marmite from the UK. Ran out several easy "leads", to no conclusion. I quit looking, thinking anything more would be intrusive.
Being a admin on my own forum takes up enough of my own time. We have 11k members.
Even though it's an un "moderated" forum as such, We only ever act if illegal images are posted which is extreamly rare.
The forum is a million miles away from this one, being a admin on here takes such a different approach. I dont think i could, or would want to do it. Admins here deserve applause
