Looking for a few good moderators...

[Sylvia Bernstein]

I've been finding that as this site grows, and the demands of my work grow as well, I am no longer able to keep up with all the activity in here!  It is time to pull together a group of moderators to be my team of advisors, to keep an eye out for spammers, and to make sure that the conversations here stay respectful.  I'm looking for active members who are really dedicated to the ideals of this community. I've already invited TCLynx and Jon Parr to become moderators, and they have both graciously accepted. Do you have other suggestions as to who I might consider?  Thanks!

[Harold Sukhbir]

Hi Sylvia,

The active, the knowledgeable, the sensible ( Vlad? for example )

[Jon Parr]

...keep 'em moderated...

[Alex Veidel]

I'm not really interested in the position of "moderator" but I'd be happy to help keep an eye out for spammers and red-flag conversations for you. Yeah Harold, I'd throw in a vote for Vlad :)

[Sylvia Bernstein]

Thanks, all.  I also "anointed" both Vlad and Bob Terrell this morning.  Alex, I think both you and Harold would look great in a Moderator tiara, just like Jon's.  What do you say?

[Alex Veidel]

I don't know... Do I get to stick my nose into other people's business and stop spiteful arguments in their tracks, yelling "by the power invested in me by the aquaponic community..."? That might be too good to pass up :) Joking aside, I'd be honored to give the community a hand in this area.

Hi Sylvia,

You know I'll be glad to assist since it'll be about 6 months to my new job and i do have the time. BTW happy to see you're so busy at you end

[Michael Silberstein]

Hay there Sylvia.

  I am here a lot as it is and have been helping with what i can.

[Alex Veidel]

Michael, you're doing good stuff around here. Make him a moderator!

[Sylvia Bernstein]

Done!

Sylvia, Today i went to band Leno Tredits for spamming but I can not seam to know where the button is I looked and look can we get to gather Saturday to find out how. I clicked on block messages but not sure that is the right one.

[Bob Terrell]

That just blocks messages from them to you, SB (Mom) is the only one that can zap'em.

Maybe Michael's trying to find his MSP's (Moderator Super Powers)...Make sure some spammer hasn't tried the 'ol 'green kryptonite under the enter key' trick on your laptop...As far as I've been made aware, Mom is still the only one who can effectively do anything about them (spammers)...
