Moderator Team

[Webmaster]

Hello!

 

As a result of the forum expanding as it has (more than 150 posts posted each day now) I feel it is time to expand our moderation team.

 

In the past my thought has been to do it myself and try and keep an even hand over all aspects of the moderation, however there comes a time that it is not practical or possible for me to be reading every posting, every day - if not sometimes needed sooner.

 

I will soon be contacting a few of our senior members (been with the site a long time/have posted quality consistently - nothing to do with age ) to become moderators. This doesn't involve anything out of the ordinary if you are asked to participate; you can still view the forum as much or as little as you did before and there is no obligation to read every topic. The moderation bit comes in only when you come across a 'problematic' post (help advice and details given) which you will be able to deal with.

 

I feel with a team of trusted members from the forum checking aspects of the forum, an almost 24/7 coverage will be achieved, and hope that this may lead to nipping some of the problems in the bud.

 

As I said, there is no obligation if you are a moderator to be tied to the website, and you don't just need to think it's about the forum; I'll hopefully be running ideas and new features for Pigeonbasics past moderators first, and other areas of administration may be requested.

 

One thing I don't want is for anyone to have a gripe at who are moderators, because I hope that there will be a wide cross-section of the fancy; therefore I will not be publishing any list of names. And indeed I hope the team of moderators does not need to do any moderating, however they will be there as a safeguard.

 

If you don't get a message to become a moderator, but think you have what it takes, please contact me via the usual details; however I will be inviting people to be part of the moderation team as a matter of course from now on in, this isn't a one off appointment; so stick in, keep posting, and you'll be noticed .

 

Any questions, you know what to do.
