Hey Tool have you ever thought of having an extra mod or 2?

Just my 2cents worth but this place could do with a couple of Mods..I know you do a great job mate no disputing that, but you have here on your site a few real good quality members such as loosechippings/Play_The_Odds/Jazz and others..Giving these or who you would choose mod rights and give then their own rooms such as software for one hardware another so on..

As you know Mods have less power than Admin does, but a Mod can tidy up threads move them to the appropriate places if posted in the wrong place, make stickys, keep the content clean so on so forth..

I have been here over 2 years and never seen a new name for Mod yet..But then you and Sonja obviously do such a good job at it i suppose

Maybe the place runs so well there is no need..

By the way, for anyone reading who thinks i am hoping to be made Mod, i am not. I have my own website and do not wish to be made anything here..I am happy as i am here and wish to stay that way

But others here would do a great job i am sure, especially those i named..They are quality posters and very decent and respectful to boot..

It's been brought up here before. I think Mods are a dangerous addition to a forum like this. Too many conflicts, cliques, and abuse of power can occur, ruining a good forum. I've seen it elsewhere.
Tool is very good - he dos'nt get involved - comes in and cleans up what he needs to clean - he is not heavy-handed - treats everyone fairly. I've rarely seen a banning here and if someone was, it was over- due.
It's a special place and I would hate to see it digress. There are many forums like this and some of them are detestable.
Just my humble opinion of course.

Dude i hear you..Tool does do a good job, and you may well be very correct in what you say..I jusy thought a mod or 2 extra could be good, but then like i said in my orrigonal post maybe there is no need as everything runs so well already.

if you think about it the regs are kinda mods, because we point something out and tool takes care of it. i was a mod (may still be, i just quit going to those forums...) it isnt anything great, you just clean up garbage, or abuse the power like posted above.....i was a garbage man.

PTO is absolutely right... I have my own web site (just family stuff) and as per family request I put " Invision Power Board v2.0.1" up on that ....and all I found was playing around with it and messing-up people's account and it truly isn't that much fun. If there were lots of abusive people on this forum then perhaps by now Tools would have approached someone by now and ask the to be MOD but there is no need so far (as far as I see it)

cheers

Why not a mod or 2
a mod is not there simply to control
but also to give advice and fix small things etc
livin the place up etc

Id be surprised if it happens-this place runs by a ghost
the main place a mod or admin should look is in this section of the board
how many replies are there?
