Aren’t you a mod yet @Dazercat ?
This is taking far too long

Dazercat · February 9, 2022, 4:23am

You first.

Salty · February 9, 2022, 12:19pm

@SinceIAwoke you come to mind too

Faugxh · February 9, 2022, 12:28pm

Yes, @Dazercat, @AyBee, @SinceIAwoke! @Its_me_Stella!

Jennajen · February 9, 2022, 2:06pm

Good names - but you too @Faugxh would make a great mod!

anon57836609 · February 9, 2022, 2:13pm

I second this

anon57836609 · February 9, 2022, 2:18pm

I propose @Nordique as well

Nordique · February 9, 2022, 2:26pm

Thank you Jan!! That’s really nice of you to suggest.

I don’t think I would be able to keep up with enough stuff here to be the best for the job. I really appreciate it though

SinceIAwoke · February 9, 2022, 2:33pm

Thanks for the mention, Salty and @Faugxh. One of my character defects is trying to run stuff and be in charge. I’m working on being in service positions through my AA meetings, so I will be happy to remain just a member on TS.

Faugxh · February 9, 2022, 3:26pm

I’m needy enough that I’d hoped I’d get a mention (omg so embarrassed to share this ), but know myself well enough to know I’d be terrible at it! Thanks Jen!

anon57836609 · February 9, 2022, 3:33pm

Ha, bullshit

anon57836609 · February 9, 2022, 3:36pm

I can relate to this the times I was self-suspended, I’d check TS everyday to see if I was tagged in you are missed

Dan531 · February 9, 2022, 4:00pm

I’ll nominate you from now on

Dazercat · February 9, 2022, 4:32pm

Well, if we’re nominating people. Do we actually get to pic or have any influence over who is a moderator or not? Just a thought.

Anyway……
There’s this guy out here in TS Land. He loves his music and always. Always. Has nothing but kind words and encouragement for everyone here. And practical and very emphatic. He would make a really great moderator @Winter_Ov_Thanatoz

siand · February 9, 2022, 4:38pm

People have to put themselves forward to be considered but I’m sure for some being nominated here could give them the confidence to do it!

Moderators will discuss nominations with Robin and Robin will make the announcements

Dolse71 · February 9, 2022, 4:44pm

I used to suffer but now I use…

You can thank me later.

Dan531 · February 9, 2022, 4:50pm

I’m pretty sure that you’ve been voted in already… it’s like jury duty… so yeah

Ravikamor · February 9, 2022, 5:17pm

OMG

That’s hilarious!!

Eke · February 9, 2022, 5:37pm

Yeah. Robin relies a lot on the community input, but in the end he ultimately decides.

Eke · February 9, 2022, 5:47pm

I might also add regarding mod input… For our part, a lot is input on practical stuff we find helpful based on past experience.

Examples from recent mod calls are having enough (but not too many) to have good coverage. Trying to spread out time zones/regions, even cultures if we can (e.g., some NA, some EU at least). Keeping a degree of gender/perspective balance.

A lot depends on who gets put forward, but these can be factors in the final cut.
