Moderator Applications now Open!

***Cloverfield*** · #1 08-20-2002, 06:32 AM

As many of you are aware we now have several vacant moderator positions available.

- Off Topic Discussion
- Fan Corner
- Oddworld RPG
- Member Art and Literature

At this point in time Justin, Peter and myself will be moderating the Zulag 1 forums and the Suggestions forum.

Initially we are looking for one moderator per forum, but if the need arises we are happy to have multiple moderators. People can also apply to moderate multiple forums if they have interest in doing so (i.e. an art orientated member may be interested in moderating both fan corner and the Member Art and Literature forum).

We are looking for dedicated members, who have a strong interest in making these forums a member based forum and a place which is welcoming to all. Moderating will include all the usual tasks such as deleting and moving threads, etc. Peferrably the potential moderator should visit the forums on a regular basis.

Once nominations have been recieved we plan on running a member based voting system. Therefore instead of us choosing the moderators, you will be able to have a say in who you want moderating your forums. I don't think there are many forums around which do this at all, so this is a first for Oddworld Forums.

If you are interested, please reply to this topic, or if you have any questions, or perhaps would like to nominate another member, please feel free to do so also.

I would love to have power over Off-Topic...Possibly with one or two others...

***Alcar*** · #3 08-20-2002, 09:20 AM

This thread is for nominations for potential moderators, later on after nominations have been submitted a new topic where you can vote on polls for those nominated people will be made, so you may as well nominate yourself!

Hey Rex!

We are not holding any grudges, and i'm very happy to see you return! Maybe i'll see you on Oddchat again.

So your nomination for yourself has been accepted, as will ALL others.

Rex Tirano · #6 08-20-2002, 10:06 AM

Thank you alcar! ^.^ so nice to hear you say that!

molluck2 · #7 08-20-2002, 11:02 AM

It would so cool if i would be a mod, wait wha am i talkin' about?
I would never be one!!!!!

Disgruntled Intern · #8 08-20-2002, 01:02 PM

I would also be interested in moderating off topic, as well as member art and literature.

I was planning on leaving, but my willpower is non existent. That, and I'm a loser.

I wouldn't mind sharing the title of off topic mod with Jacob, actually.

Yeah, same here.

I would love to moderate the Off-Topic Discussion or Member Art & Literature.

Sharing's alright with me, too...

Statikk HDM · #10 08-20-2002, 02:43 PM

I think it would be a good idea to have Jacob and Disgruntled Intern to co monitor the Off Topic Discussion. As lond as they don't punk out on the boards, I think they would do a great job.

Kaimana · #11 08-20-2002, 04:15 PM

I am not looking toward moderating any forum at the moment, and i dont think anyone here really would nominate myself. However i would like to know if i will be moderating the soon to come OIPT forum, and if that is so then that is all i will moderate unless anyone wants me to do more. So Admins will i be moderating the soon to be OIPT forum

Thank you so much.

Also i would like to nominate a few, i would like to nominate Majic Abe to be a moderater, and AL the Vykker to be a moderator, also Oddsville and the Khanzumer.

Those are my nominees.
thanks again- Kai

MunchOnThis · #12 08-20-2002, 05:49 PM

I have a strong interest in moderating,I don't really mind what I moderate.I'm not exactly fussy about what I would moderate if possible. But I doubt I'll EVER become one. Oh well...I tried...I'll just nominate myself for moderating Fan corner or Member Art & Literature. Since Al The Vykker also wishes to moderate Fan corner I wouldn't mind sharing the title with him.

~Munchy

Molluck · #13 08-20-2002, 06:35 PM

I too was leaving but I luv OWF too much so I gotta stay!
It would be great being a mod but I don't really have much chance...
I would go for RPG cose I love it and even though i haven't been in the main rpg before it would be a good oppertunity to do so It would be great being in I high position of any sort really but Rex is more likley to get RPG than me...
I would love Fan corner too but I doubt that will be free either...
Even if i don't get any high position i think all those who have replied already would do any position brilliantlly Thank you all *bows*

SeaRex · #14 08-20-2002, 07:24 PM

Off-Topic or Member A & L. Something I've always wnated to do... so I nominate myself.

The Sour Slig · #15 08-20-2002, 07:39 PM

I nominate anybody who wants to moderate the RPG forum (Mullock

) because I really want to role play badly!

Al the Vykker · #16 08-20-2002, 07:52 PM

Thank you for nominating me Kaimana! Although moderating has been my dream since I joined. Though I have learned that power can sometimes make Individuals different then they used to be, and change them in some ways, some others may not even scratch them, the Moderator position I would Like to be is Fan Corner, although if I am not chosen for that, I humbly understand, I am glad to be here, know that I will always support OWF, and that I have seen what a great place this is, and that I am glad to be here with all of you. I am also glad that this place has been alot more friendly, and more Democratic.

Thank you all the staff and Members of OWF, you have shown your true leadership in a time of need.

Sincerely, Al the Vykker

Joe the Intern · #17 08-20-2002, 08:00 PM

Hmmm... Moderator positions. Wheeee... I'm on every day. I'd love to moderate Fan Corner, if possible. So, I nominate myslef for moderator of Fan Corner.

paramiteabe · #18 08-20-2002, 08:15 PM

Hmm thats sounds like a good idea. I would like to be a Mod myself possibly for fan cornor or Art and litature. I think I would be a good mod because I am on every single day and contributing every day. So I nominate myself. But if not then thats ok.

Paramiteabe...

Yes Kaimana, Im sure you'll be getting the OIPT Forum, afterall the OIPT is yours!

As for the nominees, keep 'em coming! We need more people to be fair, and so you have a more wider range of people to vote for.

Alcar...

Majic · #20 08-21-2002, 12:06 AM

I would be interested, I am on usualy every day and have been here a while. I wouldn't care really what place to be put into, preferably Off TOpic (though thers lots of others there...), thats where I regularly visit. Like I said, any other though. I don't think I have any bad moments on my record I think, and would be willing to do what the forums need.

thebomb372 · #21 08-21-2002, 12:16 AM

i nominate kai

Al the Vykker · #22 08-21-2002, 12:19 AM

I nominate Kai for OIPT and Myself as stated in my other response for Fan Corner Moderator.

MojoMan220 · #23 08-21-2002, 12:40 AM

I wouldn't mind being a moderator for the Off Topic Discussion or the Fan Art and Literature forums. I have a good attitude towards all members, I come to the forums regularly, I keep an opened mind, and I always use spell check!

Kesiah · #24 08-21-2002, 04:21 AM

I would like to moderate something like the Fan Corner, as it's my favourite spot, but I think I may need more experiance first.

But I'm willing to try!

*edits post: I forgot to metion that I generally visit the forums everyday, but generally when most people aren't here, 'cause of my location and time differences.

Rex Tirano · #25 08-21-2002, 09:18 AM

Ah yes I nominate molluck and myself (as we are good friends and we can talk Things over) for moderators for he rpg. And Kai for the off topic!

atusiya@ · #26 08-21-2002, 12:12 PM

I wonder nobody recommends Xavier why.
He does not return here till August 24......

atusiya@'s father..

Disgruntled Intern · #27 08-21-2002, 12:21 PM

I think Xavier is the perfect choice for GD, or the Spoilers section....But I've already nominated myself, so this is more of an opinion than a nomination.

I would like to be a off topic or fan corner moniter.Mostly beacaus eI usally go there and being a mod would be fun.I would of couse edit and potrol it endlessly and be responseble now where do I sign the contract?

Edit:I think AlTheVykker should be the fan mod because hes so good at fics and knows when something wrong is going on in the fan fic

Molluck · #29 08-21-2002, 03:41 PM

If possible I would love to share RPG with Rex! We have some Very cool ideas for it!

salty pretzils · #30 08-21-2002, 03:52 PM

I vote for Molluck as R.P.G mod. She has been here a long time and I feel she is a very creative and responsible person.

Don't expect to see Me here again...I'll be content with watching.
