So, Moderator...for RP+FF

Post by Buckdida »

So. If you guys didn't know, the RP and FF section of this forum is pretty busy at times. The RP's have rapid posting rates, many of the fans turn out a lot of fanfiction, and a lot of us have a lot of fun. But...there's also the administrative part of this. Mainly, per-se, reading through every post and insuring that nobody breaks the rules, or the rating of the forum. That is a LOT of writing to read through, from the most interesting story that could be turned into its own short story if the character names were changed, to... the badly written one-line RP post.

However, there's a slight problem...I'm basically the only mod reading this section. With the occasional little (just a little) help from Dylan and sometimes Ebly. And both of them as well as I have the two other sections to keep track of.

So. What I want is a mod that ONLY helps me keep track of the RP and FF forum. Yay! Our first local section mod! The forum's finally gotten busy enough for us to do that!

So! I want volunteers! Your job would basically be to enforce the rules in this section of the forum, and read through all the posts to make sure everyone is following the rules...and also report to me and the other mods. (Or if you like your grammar, the other mods and I.)

Once we have some volunteers, the mod team will pick from the pool for the new mod here.

Good luck all.

-Buck

EDIT: Silly me. I forgot to mention: If you'd like to volunteer, POST HERE! If you have any extra arguments or credentials, post them here.

I wound mind doing this.
I am not much of a Role playing person, but keeping a eye open for PG13+ content is something I can do regardless.
As for fan fictions, I am already looking trough those of DevaintArt, so adding this wouldn't be that much of a step up

I have pretty extensive forum moderation experience. I've previously been head moderator on three forums for the video game Test Drive Unlimited, followed by global moderator on a forum for Photoshop stuff. I've also been forum administrator on two of the Test Drive Unlimited forums, if that helps. Unfortunately, none of these forums are active any more, but all of the members agreed that I did a good job on them. You'll have to take my word for this, but I promise I'm not lying.

As far as these forums go, I haven't been here for as long as some of you guys, but I'd say I've established myself. The only problem is that I won't be able to give the forums my full attention for the next 10 days (on holiday in Turkey) and then for the week after (I'm working). But I think that I'd be a good moderator.

I personally, would be honored to take the job. I'm on the forums almost 24/7, but the only problem would be my past "experiences" on the forum... so i'm not putting too much hope into this.

Well, I'm already reading a lot of the PF and DT stuff, so maybe I could join in and be one of the people watching over them. I think I'd do a good job if you gave me a chance. And it wouldn't be the first time I was in charge of a forum. I've been a moderator of two others in my past.

So, yeah, you know me.

...I'd have made a CV, but this is kind've the wrong tim for me. Basically, I am quite determined, and have been Reading all the FF put up. Admittedly, I've not read much of the PF's but I have read the entire of RG. I will be online quite often after I get back from Egypt. As of now, not much I can say...

Oh yeah, I'm British. That helps, right? :mrgreen:

(yeah, I'm not ussaully this jokey while I'm trying to set up something as important as this...I think holiday is getting to me)

And then make a couple people Super-Mods to supervise the Mods. And then Mega-Mods to supervise the Super-Mods. And then Ultimate-Mods to supervise Mega-Mods. And then Alpha-Mods to supervise The Ultimate-Mods. And then a King-Mod to supervise the Alpha-Mods. Then Rick can supervise the King-Mod! Yay!

lol. I have a feeling someone like ctcmjh or Kyderra might end up with the job. I'm still running, but I think those two are the most likely to get it IMO.

I would like to do this, but I'm not sure I'd be able to get on the computer that much when school starts.....so I have to turn this offer down. Or sideways. I'm really not sure...
....this is one of the reasons why i don't like school :lol:

I'd fight fang-and-claw for this, but I'm the least-qualified candidate imaginable. So, Moderator? Not me. *laughs*

...

No, seriously. I dun want it.

Edit: Explanation

I'd love to help out. Having said that, I feel like this job should go to someone who's actually... you know, involved in the roleplaying so that there's no resentment or feeling that an outsider's been put in charge.

I spend most of my free time on the forum, I used to be an avid RP guy (so I know my around an RP), and I constantly frequent the fanfics of this site (so reading every post on fanfic threads is something I already do), so I think I would be great for the job! I haven't really gotten a huge chance to aid the community, so I would love to help out in any way I can!

I hope I can help as much as possible!

How about one mod to keep track of the fanfics and the other to keep tracks of the RP? That would make some choices easier.

Also the mods probably shouldn't also be GM's in the RPs. They need to look over ALL the RP's, not just their own.

We picked our new RP and FF section moderator!

After 3 days of arguing who will be the newest mod we finally reached a agreement. We batted it out with the best weapons and gadgets we could get out hands on at the time. *cough* Buck's Dead Ringer was annoying *cough.* Anyway... Once the dust finally cleared we finally came to a agreement with our forum's newest mod. It was a long and painful battle, all of us are glad to be able to sleep in our warm beds with fluffy pillows. (it was 3 days!) Now we are (finally) pleased to announce our newest moderator.

Congratulations to Ctcmjh our Forum's newest mod!

Yup!

Congrats! ctcmjh you're the new mod for RP+FF! Err, if you accept, of course. :D

Sorry guys, but we're only going with one mod for now. It was tough for me, as I had three strong candidates to choose from.

Thank you to everyone who volunteered to help. Believe me when I say it really means something to me and that I will remember those who were willing to step forward! Uh...I'd like to thank RockstarRaccoon in particular, who first stepped up and offered to help. That meant a lot, you know?

Anywho, celebrations are in order!

*blows kazoo*

I look forward to working with ya, ctc!
