Guys, figure out who will be your regional mod/forum leader.

Discuss it amoung yourself and select someone.

- Alex

uh.. not me.

not that I was under the impression that I had a chance over here

trying to think of someone that is active over here that would be diplomatic enough to moderate..

Not this again!

KC should do it!

Not it!

We can behave ourselves :D

you'd think it was the plague.

Ditto!!!

I got it.. draw straws.. whoever gets the shortest one has to moderate the forum.

Im gonna have to pass on this one.

Why would we need a mod, nobody really posts anything.

People post alot. Just not in the NE spot much. Look at the numbers in the other sections. We are weird. Or weird-Os.
I think the whole Subaru Forums thing has gotten too big, or too many, there are alot of them. NE people aren't as energenic in the winter anyways.

We should get back to this subject in the spring.

Ohhhh!!!! Ohhhh!!!!! Pick me, Mr Kotttah!!!!!!

For the most part I *think* most all of the posters here are orderly and very cival to each other. Do we really need a moderator ? If so, I wish to nominate WebKriss.

it's spelled webkris.

by the way Jonathan.. have you seen Kris post even once on here, I don't even think he's registered.

so uh.... yeah..

Fishguy was the first to speak up (I didn't really listen to what he said...:D...), so he should be the guy! KC, what do you think? Good idea? We'll just have to have some wooden body parts available.

Sorry Kris - I just *knew* something was wrong with the spelling of your name as 'Kriss'; I just wasn't sure what was mispelled.

I am not sure, but I dont think I have seen any of Kris's postings on this particular board yet, although I guess its possible that he may have registered under another name ?

Perhaps someone might want to e-mail him the link ???

Do you really have to register in order to become a moderator ?

Given how infrequently Kris posted last summer & fall on the old NASIOC NESiC forum (while registered as a moderator), I dont think it should be a requirement, although ultimately others whos job situations were not as demmanding eventually managed to weasle Kris out of his job as moderator there. My general impression is that given the number of postings, and how relaxed and mature most of the posters are, there just isn't much need of all that much administrative duties here. Also I think Kris is an excellent moderator, and I really look forward to reading some of his posts.

Perhaps setting him up as a moderator here might encourage others to also ask to become moderators ?

in order to be anything you have to register..

atleast i know that to be true of the software on the other board.

who knows possibly this one, with out even having kris as a record in the database will know who he is and know that he's a moderator.. and because he'd have no record he'd never have to log in.. it'd just magically know who he is and through telepathy he could tell the server that he wants a post locked or moved.

I'm being completely sarcastic.
yes.. you have to register to become a moderator.

bugger, it's raining.. I wake early to go take a walk along the Charles river and of course it's raining.

E-mail him a link....Umm..yeah...Hey Kris...there is this new site called I-club...you should check it out! Whats that, you already heard of it?

Do you have to Register to be a moderator....tell me I didn't read that right. How did you manage to get the computer on again? Common sense would most likely tell you that registering on a board would be a good 1st step in doing ANYTHING on the board, let alone being a moderator on it.

As far as Kris not being on the board due to his job being more Demanding......Last I checked....he was unemployed. Maybe it wasn't so much people "weasleing" him out of the position so much as him just not wanting to take such an active roll. Kris is an excelent Mod, and a great person, but don't count on seeing him post here.

*Yawn* *Scratch* *Burrrp*

*sigh* scratches*smells finger*


I don't understand it. My wife wont buy any sexy see thru clothes, yet her bathing suit is see thru when wet. Its not a pretty sight but its all I have to look at.

And another thing. Whatever happened to miniskirts? Those are way sexier than those bellbottoms girls are wearing these days.

What kind of chickens does boneless chicken meat come from?

Jonathan, in your infinite un-wisdom... were you aware we got rid of 8 moderators at that same time?

shall we refer to it as board restructuring.. or mass weaseling.

you be the judge..
better yet.. don't.

My vote goes to Jonathan for a mod....he seems to be pretty quick and have a firm grasp on the obvious.......and he seems to be one of the few that posts here alot....he can moderate himself.

I guess due to my newly found view of Jonathan and his grasp of current events and logic.. I have to give my vote to him.

Jonathan for Moderator!

I heard that too much "self-moderation" will make you go blind!?! :lol:

what did you say, I can't see the screen clearly.

So its settled, Jonathan is it.
All in favor, ...

eye!

Nay !

BTW I dunno how to be a moderator.

And besides, I finally ran outta money and decided to swallow my pride and accept a $9/hr job providing transportation services for handicapped folks (I get to drive around all day in a huge Dodge van, known in MBTA circles as 'The Ride'). This means I really cant be loggin' on in here and moderating the 3-4 postings this forum receives every day, but thanks for thinking of me just the same.

Oh and its finally started snowing again some as well, too !


PS.
I do (contrary to what other have posted) fully understand the basic concepts of "register", "log on", and "post".

PPS.. you mean contrary to what you yourself posted?
or was that a seperate personality, thus referring to it as "what other people posted"

Sounds like a personal problem.

Even still, you may claim to understand posting and technical things of that nature. Sarcasam is a slippery one.

Hmmm Lets back up some. I think I am all confused here...

Kris managed to be the NESiC moderator for several months without posting anything, and I assume not even logging on, and things seemed to be running rather smoothly. Perhaps in part do to your efforts, Fishy ? If I were to become moderator y'all would be posting stuff that the "new boss" wont like just to make me look foolish.

Just having WebKris's name as a moderator on this board (even if he never even logs on, or registers) would help lend a sense of legitamacy to this forum that I could never manage to acheive even if I was logged on 24/7.

Yeah I guess my knowledge of sarcasm is also highly questionable as well. Its sometimes hard to pickup on in written form without use of the delimeters.

I think this board will need alot more than "Moderators: WebKris" to lend some legitamacy. Has anyone tried anything in this forum worthy of moderation? So maybe it's not the name "webkris" that keeps people in line...but the fact that people just naturaly behave. This isn't off topic. If no one has been needed to moderate yet.....why should be need someone now? Webkris has chosen not to participate on this board, I don't think he'd appreciate being used as a figurehead modeartor over here.

what good would having a name listed as a moderator that doesn't actually tie to an actual member?

If that was the case, then why don't we just list (God/Satan) at the head of every forum, that'd keep people in line..

Given, I haven't seen God or Satan register yet..

haha, moderator: God, Satan. Hey, that would work....I mean, God would just Smite you, much more effictive than a TO or a ban. If we're looking at fictious moderators who don't even exist on this forum, why stop at WebKris...

Ok, I'll do it.

Ed [sick of the pm's] :)

Sick of PMs?

Call me a godless heathen, but I think most members on this board have a slightly higher regard for Webkris than they do for "God" or "Satan", as we all know Kris is a real person. :)

You missed the point.....God...satan....Webkris....NONE OF THEM EXIST ON THIS BOARD!!! It's like trying to make someone a moderator for this board....who is a moderator for your mary kate and ashly olsen forum. "But they do such a good job over there!". Doesn't matter, they arn't on this forum....and can't therefore moderate it. Some people on this forum arn't even on the other one....so who's WebKris?! I'm far from religious....but your statement of who is better regarded is pretty bad. And I'm pretty sure WebKris wouldn't want to be reffered to in that manner either.

We know you have a crush on webkris, I'm sure he's flattered....but thats till won't change the fact that he's not currently, and will not be a moderator over here.

Godless Heathen: I don't know.. it almost feels as it's been just as long since I've seen either of them in person..

it's a toss up..

so don't place signifigance on that..

This post is the best thing that's ever happened to i-club.com!

Ed [sick of the pm's] :) You're easy! :lol: How will you find the time to troll and moderate :D

proper time managment.

that's all it takes

I'd do it but it sounds like volunteer work

Fine....I'll be the Mod...

on my count, time me to see how long it takes me to TO everyone I can find...Starting with Jonathan....and then on to the rest of you.

That effort would just be redundant to your origional posting.

If I'm the Mod, do I have to logon more than once every 3 weeks?

no, I thought it was made pretty clear in this thread that you don't even need to be a member of this board to be a mod. So....buy even logging in once....let alone once every 3 weeks...your going above and beyond what is expected of you. What I suggest is to become the mod, and unregister yourself.
