So what is the main job of the Moderators these days? Is it mostly approving posts of new members? Is it deleting a lot of spam? What's the time commitment in a typical day?

Thanks guys. But I would have to decline. I was one of three mods on a major news paper website and just do not have the time to do it justice. I am surprised anyone would consider me and will thank you for the consideration.

So I guess we'll never know....

*waiting impatiently for glatt footie and Jim to accept as I prefer the nomination to the win*
How about we nominate some non-gray beards? Tulip and Gravdigr

glatt · 01-03-2011, 07:19 AM

I'll accept.

And I second everyone nominated so far, not that it's needed.

jimhelm · 01-03-2011, 08:31 AM

I don't read enough of the cellar to be effective, so I'll pass.

footfootfoot · 01-03-2011, 09:37 AM

SWMBO barely lets me on the cellar as it is, so I regretfully decline.

TheMercenary · 01-03-2011, 10:33 AM

I would support Griff and glatt whole heartedly. They would make a nice compare and contrast to keep things even.

Ha! I have one of those.

skysidhe · 01-03-2011, 11:03 AM

Ok, since we are losing contenders, what about plthijinx, lamplighter or Brianna?

For the sake of creativity, I am imagining a board with Sundae Girl and Brianna as moderators.

*Imagining* hummm I am getting no red flags. They're people neutral, acting.

glatt · 01-03-2011, 11:05 AM

I appreciate being nominated, but hope somebody else wins. I'm willing to do it though.

Full disclosure: I'm here mostly during the day during the work week. I've got the Cellar up in the background for most of the day as I do other stuff at work. So if I was elected a mod, I'd be around during East Coast work hours, but any mod duties would be put way way on the back burner in the evenings and on the weekends. I can't promise anything during those times.

Oh, and I won't be opening any of the NSFW threads at work, so they would go un-moderated by me. I also won't view videos at work, so video content would be un-moderated by me.

I hope I don't come across as presuming I'm a shoe-in for the job, I just think voters deserve to know what they are voting for.

skysidhe · 01-03-2011, 11:08 AM

It's good to know!

...... and I don't think you are off the mark as being a shoe in.
Unless, you don't want to or can't.

Thanks Sky, but I do decline

Griff and glatt are excellent choices. They've both proven themselves over the years that
I've been here. I think either will do an admirable job.

<insert buttkissing smilie here>

Seriously - They are both great nominations and I'll second, third or whatever we are up to, both of them.
