I like the nominations already put forward: xoB, wolf, HM, lj, SD, Els, rl. I also think tw (despite his current tagline) and dar would be good moderators. I am basing these nominations on what I know of the temperment displayed by these users, and on the little I know about the duties and responsibilites of the postition. I think it should be taken seriously.

I accept my nomination. (thx glatt and zippyt!)

I have some questions about the responsibilites of the role itself. In the envitable case of a spam thread being created, and perhaps warned about with the notice going to email, what is the acceptable window for response time for deletion of such a thread? Golly, if I found one, and I have, I wouldn't mind if it were there as long as a day before deletion. I know I don't want to give aid, comfort and bandwidth to such parasites for one moment longer than I must, but if it happens and I don't get to it until I login/check that email address/see the smoke signals/etc, for a little while, is that a dereliction of my duty?

I also am a fan of terms of office. I am apprehensive (normally so, not abnormally so) that I will be able to do the job (if elected). and I would want to know that there was an "out" if I wasnt' fit. Short of banning me, of course. What are we talking here? Some number of months?

Multiple mods. Are we talking working in shifts? Or is it more like a distribution list and the first one to get to a ticket/email is the one to handle it?

Limited mods. I respect NBN's point that he would prefer to mod only a subset of threads. I think this is a good idea. I also think NBN would be a good moderator for the scope he defined.

Well, I can see by the big clock on the wall that I have to get back to class. I'll be back later.
