    Err - no he isn't. Anyone who dealt with him 98-2000 knows EXACTLY what he is like.

    Just a thought

    Congrats to the iNET team on your purchase. I'm sure this will only serve to make WHT even better.

    Hi NovaW,

    Thanks much! We know we have big shoes to fill, as Robert & Co did a fine job with WHT over the past 18 months. However, I think Robert and I agree that it is the moderators that make WHT such a success, and we are empowering them to do so while providing needed resources for them in the future.

    We have a fair number of ideas for enhancing WHT based on the feedback we have already read from others.

    We are very excited and honored to have the opportunity to work with the WHT community for the coming years.

    You aren't going to get many ex-Communitech customers to agree with you. Search for Communitech and you will see why. It was pretty gut wrenching to see Gabriel Murphy's name associated with this site. And yes, I am a former Communitech customer.

    Thanks Dude

    Our aim is to provide more value to the WHT community members, so ultimately you will be the judge as to whether or not it is a worthwhile investment for us. We feel that if we can provide you with more relevant webhosting-related content and information, that the financial side of the equation will run its natural course.

    Any ideas you have on improving WHT would be welcome.

    So why do you have moderator status ? It's useless

    Congrats on your acquisition.

    They're just like the previous owners. They need access to certain areas. But they don't moderate. I suppose we could have made a special group just for them so that they didn't 'appear' to be moderators. But, this way seems much more honest.

    I think a WHT approval to filter out the bad hosts in the advertising forum would be very good. Only approved hosts can post in the offers pages, and only approved hosts can post replies to request pages while anyone can create a new thread in them. Moderators can easily prevent any trickery from unapproved hosts such as creating new threads to post their offers in the request page.

    If we want to be precise, they would have the highest status, given they are the owners. So you then have several groups, reflected in their user titles -

    (1). WHT Owner
    (2). Administrator
    (3). Moderator
    (4). Ad Forum Moderator

    Status in any community should be correctly displayed, imo.

    Not a bad idea, but difficult to implement. Although an application process, with an application fee, would make this process feasible.

    But discerning which hosts is "WHT approved" and which host is not, would not be a simple task.

    Does that mean I would have to have Administrator as my title?

    I've had my current one for so long. I may never have a chance to be a Master again.

    I would say that given you're the head mod with Administrator access, yes.

    Sure it isn't so that Mr Murphy can close threads like this one ?

    I wasn't going to post again on this thread but I just can't get over how skewed it is to have these guys running WHT.

    It's just utterly crazy, makes no sense to me at all . . .

    That thread wasn't closed by Gabriel, just because he was the last to post in it doesn't mean he was the one to close it.
