Forum reorganisation suggestion
« on: January 05, 2017, 02:01:35 PM »
Seriously guys, we all know that Trov's inactivity is an issue for the site, as the is the sole person with full access to the site, and this single point of failure is and has been failing for a while now. I think we need to group together to call for trov to promote a member here to Admin, as even if he feels like his current contributions are sufficient, I think even he can see that he is likely to go full-AWOL at some point in the future, if he hasn't already.


While there are several candidates for promotion (and this has already been extensively discussed in other threads), I think the obvious choice is Craig, who has a slightly unnerving amount of uptime on the site and has shown dedication and maturity through thick and thin. Other options would include Kill and Naryar, being the only other semi-active mods, but their activity would probably lead to similar complaints to what we have now.


Of course, this would leave a vacancy in the moderator position. While this may not need to be filled, I think another addition to the mod team really cannot hurt. Again, there has been extensive discussion on this topic, and I will not elaborate on this point seeing as everything has been said better and in more deal in other threads.


Trov, if you're reading this, as I hope you do, please do not take this as an insult to your work for the site. We're not saying that we want you gone, we're saying that we want you to have some assistance, as the needs of the site are greater than the amount of time you can dedicate to the site.


Hopefully the community can rally behind this message, and we can show Trov that we all think that we need a little change.
also lol at most toxic guy around calling others out on this sh**

And this is what was the main important thing about the other thread.

agree completely. I've PMed acams as a last straw for this, hopefully he notices the situation.

Not at all inactive, guys. I read the forum every day, save the past week and a half because I've been ill. Honestly not a ton that needs moderating, unless you really want me to start dishing out warnings for foul language full time, which I have absolutely no problem doing.


For once the mods did something right

Trovaner also needs to fix that bug where guests can post in Site News/Feedback for no good reason.

That's not very harmful.
