I'd much rather have dozens of moderators.

This list contains all the names that were nominated from the admin/moderator thread, who expressed interest when contacted about their nomination. Vote for the four that you wish to have as Moderators. This poll will run for seven days. At the end of the seven days, the four with the most votes will be your moderators. |

We also have our 5 admins. So far I've had to do only a single "moderator" type action, so I don't think we need a huge number. |

Since three have a strong lead, why don't we start with three and see if there's a need for more? |

Maybe we should let them finish fighting it out. At this point it may be best to let the time finish out, it's run for so long not a whole lot of reason to cut it short. Though we do have kirkmc's okay, and he's the number 5 guy behind wossname, so we're probably okay.

There's no rising anarchy in this forum, so I think we really should sit this one out. It's all about legitimation : ) |

I think the question is more on the value of the admins. We have a bunch of capable, interested, motivated admins here that would probably rather spend their time implementing new features than policing trolls - I know if trolling / spamming became a problem I'd be very sad if people like fwiffo had all their time tied up with moderating. Having two distinctions allows the work to be spread more evenly, and stop any small group of people getting overloaded. |

Yes, having the ability or rights to do moderation does not reqire performing that role. There are many people who may not have developed the knowledge to be an admin (and implement fixes or new features) but have time and ability to moderate. There is clearly a need for both roles, even if they occasionally are both filled by the same person. |
