Position of Moderator

[boxy]

If Monk is the liar, then he can't be put in a position of trust. If Aussie is the liar then this thread is completely useless as he has already promised it to Monk

So is Monk or Aussie the liar. This should be of interest to everybody before anyone moves forward with moderator ideas

Seems logical. If monk isn't made a mod, then he was the liar... if he is appointed, it's Aussie that lied

[lisa jones]

Also IQ, Monk made some recommendations for change re Modding which Aussie stated he would take on board in his platform because the changes would encourage and engender reform such as fairness and inclusivity.

That is all I am aware of.

Hence WHY I have out forward something which meets all these "requirements" for want of a better word.

I am putting my trust and faith in what I myself have seen posted on here for ALL to see by both Monk and Aussie prior to the election result.

i think youve forced the appointers hand

[Jovial Monk]

Another PM:

I know. But voting for IQ is the only way to force change.

In the meantime, talk about proposes changes like that so that not only do you and boxy not serve more than two terms you don’t just get boxy-aussie-boxy.

Promise to appoint a newby as mod. Auzgurl say. I cannot stand as candidate because then everyone will say I did this for myself like I am sure that is why you are PMing me

Some irrelevant crap removed from that PM.

In any event .. this topic itself is evidence enough that Aussie is adhering to his policy platform and asking for people to come forward for consideration for the Mod position.

And now Monk and Skippy and IQ have been put forward along with Outlaw Yogi. I have counted 4 posters thus far who are standing for this position.

and who sent the pm?

[lisa jones]

Are wannabe trolls eligible?

I heard you were already promised the job

I am sure you have. Monk posted at his site that I promised him the Mod Job. That was, to be polite, as I was, very '"careless"" of him, and I told him so in open, and repeated what I had promised in the election campaign in open and also via PM to Monk during that campaign. Mantra saw what he said and has repeated it elsewhere. It suited her agenda.

Fact is.....noone has a rail's run.....noone has been promised anything.

I will hear what Members want, and I will act according to concensus. That is what I promised, in conjunction with a declared personal preference that the PA Original stranglehold be broken, and a Newby get the Mod Job.

And Aussie has confirmed what I have just said!

[Jovial Monk]

Fuck me but you are thick, “Lisa.”

you wish


anyone can post a supposed pm but you dont put any author to it

try selling some other crap

I've been thinking about this idea for a few days now ..

I don't believe it's ever been tried before on PA.

And I think it falls in line with Aussie's Policy Platform and direction to reform this forum and make it fairer and more inclusive.

Ok, here goes ..

It would be awesome if those who have been nominated or put forward for Mod and who would like to offer their time to do so were given the opportunity to TRY the role for 3 months within the context of THIS forum.

I believe this will benefit:

* the individual who takes on the role of Mod because it will encourage more forum posters to come forward and give it a go. As the commitment isn't for a whole year, it will allow for different people ( males/females/newbies/oldies/lefties/righties) to try their hand at the role and provide each individual with forum Mod training and experience.

* the Forum as a whole because we will be able to sample the different modes of modding .. given that each individual will bring their personality and past experiences into the role.

I believe that this structure provides for a win-win outcome.

Those Mods who are elected by Admin to cover the 3 month terms should be announced at the beginning of a new Admin's tenure ( in effect creating a time table to cover the 12 months ahead ).

Which thus brings us to this ^^^

So .. in essence .. we have 4 people who are being considered for Mod atm.

And the proposed changes I am suggesting would nicely allow for all 4 members to mod the forum over the course of the next 12 months.
