No thanks, my preference is to shut down conflict asap which doesn’t seem to match what everyone else wants.

yeah - I think it is a nice idea but you need constants. i mean people still don’t know who the mods are here (and often just one of us is contacted about something rather than everyone), even after a year of there just being three of us. changing every few months would be a bit messy.

i would like to step down and a lady would have to replace me. i already approached db a few weeks back about it but as she said she can’t really do it at the moment. my vote would probably be @pervo given @laelfy has just declined. edit: unless @nemrac is up for it?

also think @wewerewerewolvesonce would be excellent.

Wouldn’t be nu-DiS without putting it to a poll

Would be good to know if any of the forum’s members who aren’t white men are interested. I realise this would me visibility on your part so I’ll leave it at that.

Good to see we have some who are interested *and also championed with seriousness *. So far that list would seem to be
@Yesiamaduck
@andyvine (drawings of DiSers as babies for evermore)
@colinzealuk
@wewerewerewolvesonce
@Jeremys_Iron

AFAIK all of these are male and white but I’ve not met all of you.

Wasn’t sure if @Ruffers was seriously interested or seriously endorsed. Sounded like there was a football angle. @Parsefone may have to comment :wink:

Sure, but I was going to leave it at least the weekend for people to discuss and consider.

Happy to withdraw as a white male if need be Theo. Think I put my hat in the ring cos I’m here all the time innit.

#97

All good nominees there, but I particularly think @colinzealuk would do a good job, so just posting to say that.

Though I think a mod rule should be you have to get little pictures now

I’m not saying we shouldn’t have white male mods I’m just encouraging people who aren’t to consider if they want to do it. :relaxed:

Utter bloody nonsense m63. I think in an ideal world having changing mods is a really great idea but practically not really possible, that’s it :confused:

The best way to mod a forum is to, as you say, all be collectively responsible, and also, as you say, to think a bit more about how we interact with each other.

#104

What’s interesting is you profile shares an IP with another user, one I had expected to put their hand up here… :thinking:

#105

Thanks but I’m not sure I’ve been here long enough really, think I’m a bit too nu-DiS to know where the line is between people knowingly and playfully irking one another and things getting beevey

I think being nu-DiS is probably a good thing…

Not trying to push you into it or anything
