Just letting you know I have been throwing around the idea of getting some new moderators on this forum since its had a huge spike in members joining and general member activity since it was near dormant for a while. The original moderators are gone for the most part and I think maybe I need to look into getting a couple of you new guys in staff positions, with the new youtube channel and what not theres bound to be an even greater increase in member activity. I am only on here a couple times a day and it is probable that I will need a little bit of help with general forum maintenance when I'm not around. More people means possible forum trolls posting stupid stuff and what not, topics posted in the wrong place that will need moved to the proper category, and inappropriate threads locked. This forum is pretty well behaved so things should be minimal. Just letting you know I have my eye on a few of you to become either regular moderators by board or global moderators which oversees any board. - Mr.Elblanco.

So yes, for those interested speak up. If your not already on my list in my head you will not be picked, if you come forth and you are on that list I will contact you via PM. I will decide where to place you based on my personal opinion.

If I were to accept this honor, what exactly would I be expected to do?

well IF you are on my mental list of the considered, you would be expected to lock inappropriate topics, move topics where they are supposed to go if posted in the wrong board. Ban violators of the forum rules (I've never had any problems). Stuff like that.

I'm only asking since I have been an admin/moderator at another forum so I'm pretty sure I know what to do with moving/locking/pinning topics, blocking/banning people that get out of hand a such.

Agh, didn't mean to put accept. Meant apply, but the wrong word came to mind And it seems pretty easy. I would think anyone of the 5 that Barrett posted sound like good choices. Whoever it ends up being, congratulations!

Whoever it ends up being, congratulations! Actually, that's about how many Mr.ElBlanco is choosing, four or five I think. That's how many there are the gang of five and any other forum I've gone to.

Ahhh, I see.
And on a side note, MrElBlanco, I like seeing the icons, and the Perfection sign you put up on the front page. Makes that site a little more viewer friendly.

yeah, i agree. I used to have those icons up but i lost them so I basically just remade them. The Perfection valley sign and the little icons of Val and Earl, the Graboid, and the seismic reading near the bottom I just thought would be cool.
