Usually we will post to the Forums when we are looking for new moderators. We then talk to interested candidates and pick the best ones.

Just an idea I thought I'd throw at you guys...

At HondaDelSol.com, the Admin came up w/ a points system...1 point for a post in a thread, two for making a new thread, 3 for forum recruitment (of course we're lacking in members, so we could probably do that a lil easier...)
but at any rate, he sometimes holds a contest when he's looking for mods, runs it for a month...whoever gets most points gets to be moderator, if they'd like. People that whore threads, loses points. But like I said, we don't have many members, I doubt it would be as easy to pull off over here.

If you really want to be a moderator, make a forum on EZBoard and have fun. YOu get to change your forum names, make stickys and the fun part, abuse your mod powers on the members; that is, if theres actually members .

Yea, Usagi is right, modding is hard. You have to stay away from the temptation to edit people's post, change their profiles and close threads without valid reason .

yes, but then again it does not always work. It has but not always. Tiny might look into this issue.
I don`t like editing posts or deleting them...............Its not fun and people get the idea all you want to do is abuse power. I have better things to do then babysit you guys

Heh, I'm sure it's not that bad....at HondaVision, some nameless mods tend to love closing threads...stuff that pertains to the Sol forum. Then they'll make a totally OT thread and close it...or make a totally OT thread and leave it open, and have the people that complain banned...or at least threaten to do so. It's just become a flamewar over there...

This community seems nicer, ya'll don't seem to abuse your powers here like they do there

...So far at the forum I moderate, I haven't had to close any threads, just edit/close some double posts, or move a tech thread out of the gen chat forum. People haven't complained so far, I guess I'm doing a good job

Like I said tho, there's not as many members, so it's a lil easier to moderate too.

The Forums software is coming out with a new version soon which will include this kind of functionality (karma).
