Moderators : (Mods) In order to be a volunteer moderator, you need to be an almost daily visitor to the message board. You should be reliable and willing to provide me with some information about yourself, including your real name, location, telephone number and e-mail address. Your location in the world does not matter. At times I will dispense a stipend, special treat or bonus, but nothing on a regular basis. Responsibility : Moderators are responsible for a wide range of duties. They oversee the board. They dispense discipline in the form of warnings and bans. They have the power to remove signatures and a person's ability to use signatures entirely. They have the ability to award titles and avatar uploads to those forum users which deserve them . You should be able to be on the forum no less than 6 days a week, for no less than 20 minutes a day. I know that there are times when this is not possible, or you are on vacation, all I request is a simple PM alerting me to the situation. A private mod room is set up to ask questions, post thoughts, and for testing post. Duties: * Move, close, merge, split, delete and edit threads when appropriate.Alert the Admin/s to inappropriate posts and/or members who chronically break the Rules . * Help mediate any arguments between members and be available to answer general questions from them. * Familiarity and ability to insert links and banners * Knowledge of photobucket and how to insert pictures, graphics, etc.Make 4-5 post a day, including commenting, answering questions, and alerting members to new offers. * Ability to think up and create contest with prize information I supply to you. Terms: Bump: Put an older thread back to the top of the list. This is different from top as the thread will not remain at the top always but will move down over time like all others. (threads are sorted by the time/date of the last post). Close: Close a thread. No more posting. Delete: It's gone for good. Move: Moves a thread to a new/different forum. Merge: Merges two threads into one. Sticky: Puts a thread at the top of a forum. If interested Please PM me , Belgamo FAQ Under what circumstances can I delete a post or thread? If the post or entire thread is clearly a violation of the rules = then the decision is easy - into the trash it goes. However,if it is not that easy. In cases like this is is best to discuss it with the other moderators . -- Edited by talkintaco at 18:03, 2008-06-20
