Well it depends who the moderatis really.

Some moderators are grand like,easy going just sound out to be honest.

And then you get some moerators who get on a huge power trip like because they think they have more authority or are hiigher up the ladder than others.Not saying this about TiBB cos most of the staff heer are nice,I havent spoken to some of them,but like you see it around that some people just go on a big power trip.

Moderators are here to make sure the board runs smooth and to check any posts don't break the forum rules. The same applies for making sure members abide by the rules.

When we appointed new moderators, it wasn't a sudden decision. We had discussed lots of potential people (it is a shame Kaz is on holiday, and I hope she is ok with our decisions :spin2:)

It wasn't a popularity contest, or who's been registered on the boards the longest. It came down who we thought we could rely on, someone friendly, and someone who could remain fairly neutral in heated discussion and take appropriate action when needed.

I hope you are happy with the new additions to the TiBB Moderating team, I'm sure they will do a great job :hello:

yeah i was only messing around mark.

im not up for the moderator roll at this time anyway..


so who has been chosen?

Lance
11-07-2005, 02:10 AM
Oh definately Mark...I think the place was in need of some moderators because it for a while the forum was well in a bad state...a lot of people were probably regestering because they got banned elsewhere.:rolleyes:

Im sure the new mods will do a good job and make TiBB a better place.

Mark
11-07-2005, 03:19 AM
The new forum mods are:

Romantic Old Bird, BusyBee, Di2001, rachb, Red Moon and Sunny_01

Sticks
11-07-2005, 05:24 AM
Out of curiosity did I ever reach the short list?

Mark
11-07-2005, 06:25 AM
I don't think it's fair to give reasons who did and didn't get asked and why, but just this time I'll make an exception. I've U2Ud you about it.

I can't comment on half the list, cos I've never seen them post, but I'm sure they'll all do a good job, providing it's the same rules for all :xyxwave:

Dan_
11-07-2005, 10:19 AM
Yep more mods were needed with the surge in messages and also new members and it was getting in a bit of bad state and more mods will be able to stamp out silly threads quicker.

Yeah im sure they will do a great job but like you said its hard to comment on at least half of the list because they probably post about once a week.

Lance
11-07-2005, 01:16 PM
Yeah I know most of them from being here last year and they're all really nice though.I used have a bit of banter with Sunny when she was here...I think she fell for me and Kore's charming personalitites!PMSL!

Im not doubting that, a few people have been trying to make the point though that whats the point having mods that dont post regulary, dont get me wrong im sure they will do a great job.

What is charming about you 2 wee reprobates lol - well I have to confess I do have a soft spot for you both hehehe and you are both so cheeky :hugesmile:

Romantic Old Bird
11-07-2005, 07:59 PM
I personally would have to test the ice cream and beer first, just to protect everyone you understand...............:thumbs:

I really care about our members, as you can tell!

Sunny_01
11-07-2005, 08:01 PM
but of course we would have to do some quality checks before we could dish it out otherwise we might breach health and safety regulations :colour:

Lance
11-07-2005, 08:04 PM
See thisis the good old kind of banter that is missing this year...and btw Im still waiting for m ice-cream and beer.:spin:

BusyBee
11-07-2005, 08:42 PM
I think a meeting of all the moderators is called for so that we can make joint decisions and carry out extensive quality testing of everything and anything that could possibly be eaten or drunk by members.

I can assure you that I would give my complete attention to that.

All the new mods on TiBB have been around since the beginning of time..ok maybe not that long..but to them it probably feels like it sometimes! And knowing their loyalty to the site will still be here when many of the ones who post now are long gone.

Being a mod doesn't mean you have to make loads of posts especially at times like this when you will probably find they have enough to do officiating over a very busy forum. However when things start to quieten down over the coming months they will be the ones who keep the site ticking over until the next BB comes along with news of the ex housemates and topics to keep everyone interested.

So from me 'a huge welcome and congratulations to all the new mods', I am sure you will all do a first class job of keeping everyone in check, with your usual wonderful sense of humour that may be at times stuck on the end of a very sharp stick! So beware!:laugh:
