Moderator questions

[mngopherguy]

1.  How does one become a moderator?

 

2. How long a term is this for?

 

3. How many moderators are there?

 

4.  Who on the website keeps the mods in check as they do with "regular" posters?

1. Ownership ultimately has the say-so.

2. There is no explicit term.

3. The site's Comment Policy lists the names, which are:

glunn, Head Moderator

snepp

ashburyjohn

Riverbrian

USAFChief

ChiTownTwinsFan*

diehardtwinsfan

twinsnorth49

stringer bell

nicksaviking

 

4. The moderators self-critique and we take some pains to consider "who watches the watchers", while recognizing it's an imperfect world and we don't always march in lock step. Ownership ultimately has the say-so.

 

It sounds as if you have a concern in mind. You can bring it up here in this forum (thank you for not interrupting a baseball thread with a tangent on this subject), or you can contact any of the moderators including the head moderator, or you can contact one of the owners. Brock Beauchamp is the owner who is tasked to interface with the moderation team, so he would be the first recommendation among them, but there is not a hard and fast rule about that.

Thanks. Now fixed in the original.

Everyone. Owners, other moderators, site posters ... if you have any issues you can either PM one of us, one of the owners or use the report function. You’ll see the word ‘Report’ under a post; click on that and follow the prompts.
