    Default Something worth discussing

    I think the forums need more moderators. It's not that there are tons of threads to close and not enough people. I think another role of forum staff is to set an example by posting often around the MB. While we have a few staff members who do post often and are highly visible, I feel like in the past, when we had more active staff members, the general population of EoFF had a better idea of how to behave as a forum member.

    Just a thought. Does that make any sense?

    Yes it does. I think it's good to have a large diverse group involved in the decision-making process in any environment. A few people have stepped down and it shows a bit.

    The rest of Staff make fun of me whenever I say we need more Staff for non-moderating-purposes.

    I just advise the mods or knights when there are some discrepencies in the forums. *has no power but the power of tattle tale* xD Maybe more staff who are in different time zones would be an idea so there's always someone on there that can keep an eye on things? *shrugs*
    Too big.

    Clearly Matt wants to be a Mod again. Go for it.

    Some more would be nice though, yeah. There really aren't too many active ones.

    For solely moderating purposes, even for a board this large, you need a handful of mods.

    However, moderating is only part of a good mod's job.

    We should make me the anti-mod. That way people know what NOT to do

    Rather than making more global moderators like there are now perhaps put a handful of people in different times in charge of one or more of the forums, kind of like how the election "positions" are boken up now?
