Now the question is…which one of you vocal ones would like to volunteer to become the new Jet Forum moderator? Time to put up or forever keep your peace.
Ben: I don´t think that anyone needs to have his life turned into misery by being a moderator .. but instead a change on how things are done here .. as this site has it´s content created by user generated input , we basically need two new things: (Marc, are you reading this?)
1) A input field that rate the "value" of a post: If a post or a thread is considered insulting, irrelevant, idiotic,etc.. would be automatically deleted by reaching about, let´s say 20 negative reviews.. the good ones, with information, interesting pics or stories can be rated as well, and sorted so we can skip the bad ones and go for the best threads and posts quickly.
2) Like cited before, as people here knowns each other very well, a "anything goes" subforum could be created to discuss anything that is not directly related to r/c jets, so we can unclutter the technical area of the forum with the personal communication area.. again any post that contains too much chatter in the "serious" one wouldn´t be erased but transfered and rated to this subforum again by the users, but not for any moderator.
IMO The important thing is to relieve the burden of all this decisions to a single individual, as he can and will make mistakes.. let this questions be resolved by the majority of the users instead.
