Blue Phoenix Ace Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 I figured I would pick up the first two moderators when we hit a membership of 25. We're already past 30. So, it's time to ask for some volunteers. Bonus, is you get to pick what title moderators get. If you'd like to throw your hat in the ring, just reply here. Thanks! The deadline for volunteers to come forth is April 10th, midnight EDT. Thanks in advance for all willing to help out!
Spud Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 I could help out, but I don't know if anyone would want me to. *throws card with smeared ice cream on it into the ring* I'm a loser who uses this and AVEN 24/7, heheh. I tend to be fast with technology and stuff though. And I'm responsible, or so I've been told. I could definitely help out during the summer (late June to August) more, or on weekends. And I usually have a few hours free time after school during weekdays. Although I may have vacation, I could probably even access the site on my phone or while driving. For the most part, I could come on every day for an hour or more.
Robin Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 *throws in poke ball* I live in a different time zone, so I can deal with stuff while others sleep
Mezzo Forte Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 I'm a former admod of a few old guard aro sites, but I'm really glad to see other people stepping up. I can't promise to consistently keep an eye on the site because of grad school and doctoral audition worries, so while I'm willing to help in the future should you need it, I'm glad that there are people enthusiastically jumping for the position right now, and I hope you give them priority over me

pearl Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 I wouldn't mind being a mod for this since wish to be active in the aro community. It is nice to help out a place just for arospec people.
Blue Phoenix Ace Posted April 3, 2016 Author Posted April 3, 2016 Thanks! As of right now there is one person on the election committee (me). So, I'll pick some of you out and maybe ask you a few additional questions after the deadline.

I wasn't exactly doing anything too glamorous; I mainly just helped keep the spam at bay so the discussion wouldn't get lost to ads about kitchen supplies! (I had to deal with making genuine moderator actions once on AroPlane when a disagreement escalated into a bit of a spat, but that was the only time I really saw fighting on an aro board.)
owl Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 I'll put myself forward for now, although seems like there's a great selection of people already volunteering
Spud Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 There's so many great volunteers here! This new forum is going to be so much fun
aihpen Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 I don't know how many people you need, but I'm always willing to help however I can
Starry Sky Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 *Is not throwing anything into the ring even though I'd really like to* Just wanted to say good luck everyone!!
DannyFenton123 Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Loving all the participants! Good luck to everyone
DeMorgan Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 I'm up for moderating. I'm thinking that "Modera[ro]tor" or some variant of such an "aro" pun would make for a fine title, if you care.

Starry Sky Posted April 5, 2016 Posted April 5, 2016 Even though I didn't throw anything into the ring, I do have my eyes on the 'Welcome and Forum Rules' Forum. The reason I didn't volunteer myself is because I'm still super new to DT on AVEN and need to get the hang of it before I take on another job especially that of a moderator position. I do like that since this site is brand new, it is a lot smaller than AVEN, and I'm sure I can handle modding here for that reason and get comfortable with the size of the site as it grows even though being brand new means new members flooding in fast. So, just leaving this here that if you do find that you need a mod for the welcome forum in the future, I'm totally up (or down... no, all the way around!) for it!! I love welcoming new members and the 'Welcome Lounge' is my go-to place on AVEN and I'm enjoying it here too. *runs off to finally stock up my ice cream stash for new members (is actually planning on going to bed. It's 3am.)*
Robin Posted April 5, 2016 Posted April 5, 2016 I have decided to leave the race. Recent events have made me realize that I, in fact, lean closer to the romantic side of the grey-ro spectrum. I have, as a result, identified less with this community. That said, I will still hang out here sometimes, since it's such a nice community. Besides, I have a smaller post count than most people here. EDIT: Since there is no one else for front page editing, I will stay there
