Good idea. However, I do not think we should elect our first set of moderators through Polls.

I'll get in touch with some of you and we can work it out. I'm sure most of you will be CE's mods in the course of time. Its all matter of how fast we grow in terms of activity and numbers.

In addition, we'll be re-forming our editorial team. I'm sure most of you will like to be the part of core team that runs CrazyEngineers; helps us with articles and interviews. Watch out for announcement.

Hey K, Is there any other posts then Mod.

The only problem I am facing in volunteering for Mod Post is, its not possible for me to come online daily for long time.

May be we can start with some post like... CE - mentors, where the interested persons will be easily approachable.

Your take on this...

Hi CrazyBoy,

The discussion on the same is in progress for a long time. We haven't yet decided upon other posts.

There could be CE - Evangelists, CE - Tech Gods, CE - Master Debater etc. We need to come up with something very soon.

How many moderators can we afford -

Number of moderators is purely a function of forum activity & growth. We'll keep on adding moderators as we grow. Earlier, it was just I, then joined Ash and now MaRo.

What powers moderators enjoy -

Moderators have a responsibility & they are the guards of the forums. Typically, moderators are able to edit/delete/move others posts, ban/unban spammers etc.

I think its not that imp to be online most part of the day to be a moderator.

Currently, we have mods from three different time zones. This helps in moderating the forums round the clock. Of course, as a mod, one needs to spend considerable time on the forums. He/she needs to be available for support & any kind of help users may want.

Cool!!....wat is next level for moderator????.....or moderator is the final stage a member can reach??

The_Big_K

I'd call a 'moderator' status as a 'promotion' of a member. Moderator is a member with extra responsibilities on forums. A moderator becomes a super moderator with some extra powers.

Finally, a member may become an administrator.
