Hi all, here is my nomination for moderator. so what do i think would make me a good moderator able to help our community.
I suppose the first thing to ask is, what is a moderator ? if you would ask me that question after many years of experience as a moderator and global moderator, then the answer is simple for me. We are the people who oil the wheels to make sure the site runs smoothly for all members, to help members, a specially the new one's who are just finding their way around. we are here to gently steer people in the right direction, so they get the most out of the site. A site that runs smoothly, helps its members to find their feet and is a friendly place to be, is an asset to any company and can speak volumes to anybody paying us a visit.
So this is me Tyke, born and raised in a south Yorkshire mining community, working down the coal mines in my younger years taught me the values of trust, fairness, loyalty, realising the value that is in any community setting. Plain speaking and honest is how we Yorkshire folk are known and i hope if im accepted, those assets will help this already brilliant community shine through.
Regards
tyke
I added you to my friends list yesterday after looking at your website and reading about you. My first impression is a good one and I really think you have potential to become a moderator and a friend.
However, I can't honestly vouch for you (yet) simply because you haven't been among us long enough to really get to know you.(member for less than 100 days)
Boonex needs Moderators who are "Corporate Ambassadors" representing and protecting their public image and reputation. see more
We need to get to know you.
Respectfully,
Juker
maybe the title of future members should read.
"Expressing an interest towards future nomination as moderator"
except those who believe they have put in the time and posts to be considered
Sammie is absolutely correct! She has a sixth sense for sniffing out good and evil in this community and I value her opinion. A thumbs up from her is like getting a thumbs up from Simon Cowell. - Let the teapot seep for awhile.
I would like to add that no one placed any preconditions upon us when we accepted the nomination for Pundit (no job description posted). The Pundit program is really in it's infancy and I don't think anyone can predict what individual roles will be. Even Boonex see more
Im sure it will all come out in the wash as we say see more
the reason i wanted to limit the number of fast tracked pundits to 10, was so as we could quickly get in place a select number of seasoned members, of whom maybe 5-6 would become moderators. there should be no voting, and BoonEx should have just appointed the, (i had excluded myself from the moderator post because i know there would be more fighting, so i removed that oppertunity before hand in a talk with Andrew.)
Quote from my email to andrew before i resigned my status:

Can this please be the truth. Sammie is a fixture and useful commodity on this site. For all the talk JTadeo does about drinking coffee and burning the midnight oils, you truly have been here all hours of day and night answering questions. I truly believe you indeed do not sleep. So this is all a bad dream and you will wake up refreshed.
Be your own man.
Again, From my Heart - Severe shock has a traumatic "Rippling" effect in your emotions and although you can't see it you are on the same rollercoaster that our Soldiers returning from combat are on. - PTSD
My duties as a Christian Chaplain require me to address this issue almost everyday. By "rippling effect" I mean that the brain and nervous systems of PTSD sufferers acts like a "Guitar Amp" and when you plug in even a normal stressful occurance see more
old saying, never put anything online if you dont want it comming back and biting you in the aztec
and sorry sweetoe, i resigned, and want nothing to do with that position again, not any position for that matter.

Whatever our opinion of Tyke, I think we owe him our due consideration and should respect his right to put himself forward for nomination without hijacking the thread.
If this was my forum you lot would have me getting my emoticon out (the one with the whip :-) Behave yourself you buggers... Be nice now.
vauxhaul vectra 1.8 (a sort of matalic dark blue..) if anybody is interest...drives like a dream ;-)
Gawd, that me going off topic now.....;-)
your nomination, will be diligently considered, and i totally agree with Juker, that experience is key in moderation of any site. you have been about for a bit, and your presence is greatly appreciated.
as we progress the rest of the week, i will be pondering all who have set nomination. i sincerely appreciate the fact that you are prepared to lay it all down for the community, and your nomination will have the utmost of consideration from me. at this time, where i am neither for or against see more
regards
tyke
