QUOTE(mzkandi @ Oct 12 2005, 5:44 PM) ^ Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The most obivious issue for discussion would be hiring. So why not make a seperate thread so we can all start brain storming ideas. We can also make seperate threads for other things we would like to discuss.  alright, so kiera makes a good point as quoted above. hiring is what everyone disagrees on. lets discuss what we think here. |

If it's the staff that mainly picks new staff, what is the basic criteria for which staff members look in candidates?

QUOTE(mipadi @ Oct 12 2005, 9:11 PM) If it's the staff that mainly picks new staff, what is the basic criteria for which staff members look in candidates? Personally, I look for how friendly, helpful, and active a member is around the community. If they can point out that a topic needs to be moved or closed without being obnoxious, that's a major plus. Being relatively drama-free helps, too. I personally don't think we need mods who start a ton of conflict (yeah, I know, I myself have been involved, but as a habit I try not to start things) When Dani was modded, they weren't even supposed to comment. The thread just remained open for the sake of congratulations and such |

QUOTE(tweeak @ Oct 12 2005, 10:18 PM) If they can point out that a topic needs to be moved or closed without being obnoxious, that's a major plus. Out of curiosity, is this done on a personal or public basis? In other words, take two candidates: one posts a comment in every duplicate thread saying, "This a duplicate thread." The other doesn't post a comment in the thread, but PM's a moderator to let her know that a thread needs moved or closed. Realistically speaking (i.e. I mean in actual practice, not in theory), who would be taken more seriously by the moderating staff? |
