Hey everyone

Who makes the decisions on moderators round here?

I'd be really interested in getting involved.

Can someone in power drop me an email.

Regards

Kay

Moderators are chosen by Chicken and Matt from what I understand...

I think only non-hosts can be mods.

I'd like to moderate on something like Promotional Methods for Hosting Businesses or Domain Name issues as I have worked extensively in these areas.

1) You must have full operational knowledge of the DELETE POST function.

2) You must have full operational knowledge of the EDIT POST function

3) You must be willing to utilize the DELETE and EDIT functions at all times

4) You cannot be a web host

5) You must ENJOY using the EDIT and DELETE functions

:D :D :D <<== Means I'm just joking here.... so uhhh easy on the EDIT/DELETE buttons !!

Bad Deb. Baaaaaaaaaaaad Deb :smash: :D

tamba, Kiwi is correct. Only non-hosts can be moderators at WHT. As for deciding who becomes mods, that's Matt's decision alone, with consultation from the other mods.

Thanks for your interest :)


<<was going to make silly comment about young blonde super-powered women but decided against it... *slinks back into hole*>>

I'm sure you have a top-of-the-line virus checker on your pc too. Though it is important to note that the only true way to prevent viruses is to stay offline.

Thank you gentlemen, though I can't claim that it was an original invention of mine........ :stickout :beer:

Deb, your post is a clear sign that you are suffering from a condition as Internetius Hostiva Ownerus Overworkus, and the only solution is rest. Plenty of it. ;) Get to bed!
