sorry. wasnt thinking. i thought theirs would be upped too. my bad.

AYE

*shrugs* aye.

2 aye plus negative 1 aye equal to ________ ,obviously.

^ What?..

so in other words, thats an aye?

Doing your job does not imply posting more. Mods can do their jobs within forums without posting a single time. They should be required to be active, but ppd to prove activity is not a sufficient resolution.

2-1=1 AYE YESSSSS


only half of the mods jobs can be done without posting. the other half, for people staff, is welcoming and making topics for people to post in(interacting in general)-and the other half, for design, is posting in the help forums. it makes sense for there to be a ppd limit taking that into consideration, and for that limit to be higher for people and lower for design

6 ayes, motion passed.

will someone update the approved bylaws for me, my computer wont allow me to edit posts. delightful, no?

and stephen, please just say 'aye' or 'nay'...

But by posting, it shows that you're active around the forums. How else are we to judge inactivity? Plus, as Heather said, when you're a people staff, you're not very much of a "people person" if you don't even try to converse with others.

I dont know. i cant subtract or add. Good try though.

alright...some questions i have about currently stated by-laws.

does that apply for the current staff because some are below that?

also
does that include myspace, xanga, and all the other blogging type staffs?

I believe it was stated that as far current staff members that dont have the ppd at 7 there will be a time frame for which they will have an opportunity to. Like, a grace period after the bylaws are offically done


Yes, that covers all design staff positons. Design staff is what we collectively call all of the design positions.

so, they will have a certain amount of time to get it up?

i think there was only like 2 of them.

Yeah a grace period. But you know what, if a person is applying for a staff position, will thay be required to have the 7ppd or 5pp? Hmmmmmm.....

what do you mean?

What part of the question do I need to clarify? The grace period or the post per day question?

the post per day question. i get what youre talking about with the grace period and i think thats fair...i just didnt understand your ppd question because wasnt it decided that people staff/heads/admins must have 7 and design postitions have 5?

^ Yeah but you need to be an offical to apply for a staff position and that only requires 5ppd (even though I dont think we have had an offically vote on that yet). So, my question was do applicants have to 5ppd or 7ppd? Or do they get a grace period as well.

i dont think they should get a grace period.

that is a good point though. im sure if they knew about it, theyd get the 5 for official membership and the 7 to run for staff.

i think they need to have the ppd count befor they apply for staff.

the five ppd is fine to access the benefits of official memberdom, but, as sammi (i think) said, moddin gis a step up from that, so only official members with the higher post counts need apply

^ So we need to put that in the bylaws so they will know that

urhm, it struck me as being common sense, but yes, if it may cause confusion, it can go in

This issue has been discussed and applied to the bylaws so I am going to close this. If there is anything else that any committee feels needs to be addressed on this topic, feel free to reopen.
