but heres a suggestion...maybe it was covered, maybe it wasnt. how about giving forums to ppl that are intelligent in those specific fields?

for example, give visual mods to somebody thats good with body work, electronics, etc. give drag racing and 1/4 times to someone that goes to the strips and brings times back often.....etc, things like that.

Moderating is not so much about knowing a specific field, as it is being able to
diffuse different situations, help out when you are available and have a tough
enough skin to be able to slough off others when they start calling you Nazi,
power-hungry and all the other lovely things that go with it. Its also about
maintaining the peace in an otherwise volatile area.

Yeah I moderated over at the S-10 forum till I sold it. Basicly keeping threads where they need to be. Merging identical thread, deleting mutliple posts, and all around helping with knowledge and to have a base for a someone to go to if you have troubles with Members or the like.

? how long is this thread gonna last? Are we gonna make a poll for it or just take what ever nominees that were brought up the most? no big just curious to start calling people names. I mean watching threads for terrorism. No but seriously. . . I got nothing but the first question.

thanks for the kind words. But i would love to be a mod of the kills section. Personally id like to be one right now, there is way to much BS going on over there right now. Its getting pathetic to the point i dont go there anymore because of all the riff raff. Lets get some mods going asap please.

i agree, it's hard even trying to find a good kill story because it's more likely to be a troll wasting my time. those threads need to be eliminated, as they are a huge waste of bandwidth once people start reacting to them. some of the longer threads have been pointless.

[goofyguy]

yeah but some of the long ones started off with good intentions but went south after a troll. The moderator for that area would have to be willing to weed through the thread and remove the crap to leave the kill story intact. Same as the Pic/Media forum.

why not start a poll, and top 2 get the job.. take the list from everyone nominated....
