To reiterate this post was started by me, to discuss the MODERATION SYSTEM not for to discuss individuals within that SYSTEM...
Points for discussion...
Do you like Anonymous moderation?
Are you happy with the grievance procedure currently in place?
Do you like Editing/Deletion’s of posts?
These are the basic questions being asked...
Not to discuss whether Ken and Sue are doing a good job or not as Monitors, nor is it to return to old ground that has passed or a chance for those that continue to bare grudges in other forums to take a advantage.
Ken and Sue over-all do a good job...
For me having anonymous Moderators isn’t good for several reasons..
Lack of perceived accountability
Negative eye candy, When you see moderators all called Moderator 1, 2 3 etc in bold green, it begs the question why?
It’s also giving an unfriendly feel...
For friendly sake, giving them a name such as fred firkin, doris muppet would have seem much more friendly and a lot better on the eye.. After all eye candy is a very important part of any forum..
As to editing and deletions..
Some are totally understandable, and I doubt any member other than the poster, would argue,
But editing probably causes the most troublesome issues. As editing individual posts has to be done with care and caution as this facility and implantation, can have a major impact how it’s perceived, both by the individual and/or the members..
As to the Monitors..
Well should they have the same powers of editing, deletion etc as the moderators, my opinion on this is that no they shouldn’t totally based on, if they do then why has this position been created and what is it’s the point, just as well call them moderators!
