I personally think KD is a good move. Maybe not the most active on the forum, but well over 3/4 of this community exists in Skype, and KD is so far as I can tell, active and eager to help on that medium.

Vari, I cannot say yet. I have no issue with him, rather simply do not have enough interaction at this time to even speculate about him being either a good or bad pick. Regardless, I think he seems pleasant and mature enough (from my very limited interaction w/ him) & I look forward to working with some new blood regardless.

Congratulations to both of them on being brought on as a trainee moderators, and hopefully they do work out. :)

I do also agree though, that now that they are community moderators, more interaction will inevitably have to be part of that. Mods are meant to be the elite pillars of our community one way or the other. We all have our quirks mind you, but it does and should stand out that we (forum staff) are here, and willing to help.

As far as using this as some basis for unhappiness... It is what it is. I think it a bit premature to get all bitey over it though. They are but trainee, entry level moderators. What they do now will determine whether or not they make it as an elite (as mentioned). I think if there is to be some level of criticism and judgment, it should probably be after they have proven themselves unworthy.

Lieutenant Major.. What kind of rank is that? :D

But yes, to whoever is complaining, it is junior anyway. Time will tell if they are ready to become moderators with full powers. We have had junior moderators that did not become seniors before.

It's not the amount of posts you make, it's the quality of those posts.. I believe they will post when needed, and they do post when it is useful.

I would rather see someone make only a few posts that actually contribute than 100 posts that all say potato.


oh no he din't :o

We have a CM now who wasn't even a mod before ;)

I really think all is said now. I am sure that the new mods will do good, thats why I picked them. We have been a long time without any junior mods just for the reason that I didn't want to do any lightly decision. I asked every mod for their candidates, added my own opinion and finally after weeks, I decided.

If you have any concerns about the current mods, no matter what or who it is -> PM me or the mod directly!
We are no elite, we are no gods.... all of us will listen closely.

I'll lock this topic now for the same reason as we don't accept ban appeals in public:
You won't make anything better, but you can make so many things worse...

If you have some good candidates, go ahead and tell me or just apply.
