Why only four? :?:

I'd much rather have dozens of moderators.

Four to start. We can adjust the number as seen fit in the future.

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?

Now that I think about it though, The poll has only 2 days left, and it might not be fair to the other 4 guys who have probably been watching their votes intently all week. 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 : )

Who are the five admins? And if there are already have 5 admins why is there a need for moderators? What can an admin do that a moderator cannot?
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).

Admins are the mechanics and moderators are the police.

That is not the case on KGS. I doubt it is here. I am sure the admins have policing powers.
