What are the WHT staff titles and what do they mean?
The following staff titles and descriptions apply to the WebHostingTalk.com forum.
Contents |
Community Leaders
The Community Leaders are responsible for the overall management of the community and have vBulletin administrator access. Community Leaders have moderation control over all the forums. The Community Leaders also help develop the overall community policies and direction of the board.
Community Liaisons
The Community Liaisons are forum-specific moderators and are hand-picked from applications we have received. They are dedicated to managing a specific forum or set of forums within the community. They do not have vBulletin administrator access or forum-wide moderation control. However, they can easily escalate issues to Community Leaders as required.
Community Guides
The Community Guides are primarily to help guide discussions and keep them on topic without the need for moderator intervention. They are not moderators, but they report problems when they see them. Future Liaisons will be chosen from the Guide group. However, not all Guides will or want to become Liaisons. To be a Community Guide, you need to be an example to the community with your contributions, helpfulness, and attitudes. You're active in the community, you work well as part of a team, and you stay within the forum guidelines.
Community Liaison 2.0
The Community Liaison 2.0 group are Liaisons that moderate all forums as well as take on some advanced moderator rolls. They're responsible for monitoring signatures and other profile fields. And they are the first line of action when Liaisons need assistance.
Retired Moderators
The Retired Moderators are members who volunteered their time to moderate WHT sometime between July 2004 and now. Although we recognize the efforts of those who moderated before, we have chosen to restrict this group to members we have knowledge of. These members continue to uphold the standards and ideals we hold dear. Life happens, and they're not actively moderating now. We appreciate what they've done and their continued support. Some moderators choose not to be in the Retired Moderators group after they retire.
iNET Interactive
The iNET Interactive group is compiled of iNET staff that need access to certain forum features. They are not involved in the moderating of WHT.
